    Independence day! 2015

    Happy Independence Day! Happy Independence Day from the Colonies! Thought I'd include this WW2 movie clip (from "The Great Escape) as a humorous holiday moment. DOWN the British and UP the rebels! :USA: https://youtu.be/yy0q2lAggHI

    Question about fountain pens

    I used one of the pens to send a card this weekend. It took it a bit to get flowing again, but got mostly there by the time the card was addressed inside and out. I'm leaning toward the paper, but the investigation continues.

    Question about fountain pens

    No, I lay them flat next to my journal (which I write in with them almost every night). One of them is a Cross cartridge ($35) and the other is a WoodTurningz ($55-$60)

    Fury

    Something seems lmost a contradiction in terms in those words, but after reading the rest of your comment, I can see how those who quietly knew the war was lost [or had cold feet] could avoid fulfilling the mission with their suicide.

    Fury

    You're probably right. One thing that bothers me about Hollywierd putting such scenes in movies is how they have a tendency to be taken as more widespread policy than isolated incidents.

    Question about fountain pens

    Ya know; I think the paper of my journal must be coated with something that clogs up the pens. I can't get a week's worth of writing with them without them getting "intermittent" again. Wax?

    Great looking straws. It's been so windy and rainy here that I've not been able to wear mine since like 1st week of May.

    Stylish and comfortable looking hat, Alan. Also, that looks like an airplane interior in the background. Am I right?

    Question about fountain pens

    Thanks. I'm trying another soak tonight, just to see if it'll make any difference. If not, I'll look into going "bulb shopping." Stand by for an update.

    Question about fountain pens

    Well I'm 1 and 1. The Cross works like a charm after soaking it. The wood turned pen works worse now - as in doesn't flow ink at all! - after soaking. Hmmm....

    Question about fountain pens

    Wow! I soaked the nib and lower barrel (they don't unscrew to separate or anything as i could determine) tonight in lukewarm water with just a drop or so of liquid laundry detergent for a couple of hours.
