  1. It depends on the width of the nib. A few of my pens have 1.1mm "stub" nibs, and those produce broader strokes on paper. They could certainly be used for calligraphy. This is a quote from Aristotle I wrote out a little while back, as an example with a stub nib: I'm not really a calligrapher, but I really wanted to revisit and use cursive whenever I write, not just when I'm signing my name on a document. Most of the pens I have are medium or fine nib, which are more suited to everyday writing. The pen pictured above has a fine nib, so the lines will be a bit thinner than they are in the quote here.
  2. It's got some heft to it. Can't wait to try it out!
  3. Lavatories. Edit: Updated story so far - You guys, I think we have the making of a NYT bestseller on our hands here!
  4. Got me another fountain pen... as if I don't have a dozen other pens already.
  5. I like reading The Oatmeal. Couple of my favorites: America explained to non-Americans What it means when you say "literally"
  6. Frustrated... Employees are where the biggest headaches are for me in my business. And I'll just leave it at that.
  7. Larry Fleet - Nutshell (Alice in Chains cover)
  8. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Right?
  9. I happen to be very proud of my ability to eat those in the middle of rush hour traffic, thank you very much! Oof! No thanks. I get the impression chili and cheese don’t mix very well with chocolate.
  10. I freaking love that song! Christian Woman and Love You to Death are two of my personal favorites from Type O. You've got me on a Type O kick now! Type O Negative - My Girlfriend's Girlfriend
  11. I am glad that this work day is over. Ugh... been off my game all day.
  12. I'm actually happy with my eye color. Mine are blueish-gray.
