“Full of the sound....” has shown some of his good deals, and after seeing this box, I thought, my dad had some CROSS pens, let’s take a look, and for 292 pennies why not.

Ball point and mechanical .50 mm pencil, that go for $45-80 a set on eBay and Amazon. I also got this bitchin’ festive Tablecloth, which St. Patrick’s Day is her favorite holiday & our 9th anniversary coming up.

Cross Classic Century Classic Black Ballpoint Pen & 0.7mm Pencil with 23KT Gold Plated Appointments (250105)

I may be a bit in the dog house because Jeep isn’t ready for a family vacation trip to Utah or anywhere I had hyped last Easter. AND I just asked if she wanted to go to 100AW rally which is our anniversary weekend, and if I could go to the Indy 500.

But she did like the table cloth...

I also bought a CB radio (as is condition) and a pair of pants.

We have a very similar set. Nice buy!

I really like fountain pens. Too bad they aren’t very convenient.

Yay Indy 500. Hope you get to go.

I’m going to have to try a fountain pen, probably the disposable Pilot $2 ones.

Although from my memory they tend to bleed on the paper similar to other pilot pens I’ve used, and my writing is squished and a mixed bag of cursive and print, it becomes a blob.

You end up changing your writing style a bit to accomm odate the way the ink flows. Starting with an inexpensive one to try it out is the way to go.
