He needs to get a better Teleprompter, so his eyes don't keep straying off to the side while he reads his script.

:) I was more focused on the little ghost on the pen.

OH MY Thank you for thinking of me!  I love it!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

I find the Schon DSGN artwork to be excellent!!  There's a lot of attention to detail in the way the pens are made and the artwork that comes with the pens.  The little Ghost icon is fabulous.

I don't know which I like better -- the design on the pen or the description  "Inky Enablawyer"

My dear friend, @Sinistral1 came up with the description.

OK, utterly unrelated except for the little ghostie, but I had to show you this (sorry, no idea if he sells them):

OMG -- this video is AWESOME.  My husband has done a little bit of blacksmithing, including taking a couple of classes at Old Sturbridge Village when we lived in Massachusetts.  He enjoyed the first one so much that he scheduled a special class and treated his siblings and a couple of friends to it for Christmas presents to all of them one year.

Unfortunately his shoulder can't handle the hammering at this point, and the friend who taught him a lot had a major debilitating stroke a couple of years ago.  

I just wish the video had descriptions of the various methods and materials (especially the later part when the guy is doing the lining and the part with the eyes).  Not sure what the guy is using to line the ghostie.  He's got some sort of plastic inside the eyes and mouth, and uses battery votive candles to light the eyes and mouth up.

:D He's one of my favorites on YT.  Great videos every time.

He shows the plastic he uses for the eyes and mouth - it's just a bit cut from a disposable plastic container - see 7:55 - which he softens with hot water before shaping.  He's pretty good about answering questions in the comments, if you want to ask. :)

Thanks.  I forwarded the YT link to my husband because I think he'd be amused even though he hasn't done any blacksmithing for several years (and mostly did it at our friend's house anyway).  And because he's had a really crummy week at work (too many zoom meetings and not enough time to do any actual work, plus had to go into the office today for some stupee ribbon-cutting ceremony that he wasn't interested in, because his boss's boss was in town from Chicago).  And it's pouring rain and he had to leave the house at about 8:30 AM -- right in the thick of morning rush hour.  (He likes what he's doing but is now looking at FB posts from a friend who just got a job recently at a place that designs and writes the software for drones, and which treats Joe way better than Joe's previous horrible company -- the guy is has a problem with anxiety disorders to begin with and he's just rocking the new job where he's treated with respect.  Plus another friend of my husband's ALSO works there.  I'm just thinking that my husband wouldn't like the commute....  At least his current job is only about a 20 minute drive on the few occasions he has to go into the office (he got hired just as the world went into lockdown and has worked from home for a year and a half...).

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
