I've switched from the G2 to a TUL gel.
Those are sweet writing too. I just like the metal limited edition G2's. Just those ones.

Uhmmm. Is this one of those things where I have to show respect to my elders and pretend to lose so you'll feel better?

My daughter turns her paper, so she is writing in a up - down motion, instead of writing left - right. That way she doesn't smear. I never mastered that technique.

Interesting, me neither. This is where a "traditional" Japanese method would be handy for lefties. They write from right-to-left and up-and-down.

Speaking of Japan… Russian military or what's left of the Russian military just started doing drills off the coast of Japan on some disputed islands.

Yeah, as far away from the Ukrainians as possible. Lol.
Seriously though, those islands in the northern territory near Hokkaido have been disputed since WW2. Pretty messed up.

Yeah and if you remember, Russia just withdrew from the WWII peace treaty so Japan is all bent out of shape and rightfully so. They just approved an additional five years of spending on US military to continue having a presence.

When I was at our credit union filling out some paperwork last year, the guy we were sitting with was looking all over the place because someone else in the office nabbed his self-purchased signing pen. You would think the disposable was gold-plated from his behavior, but he preferred that over the bank's pens because the ink was supposedly more tamper-resistant on paper. He ultimately found it, and I was amazed that my aging/cramped/shaky hands could actually write for the first time in years! Long story short, I immediately went online as soon as we got home and ordered a 6-pack of them...a lifetime supply with the little bit of writing that I do these days.

Uni-Ball Signo 207 Retractable Gel Ink Rollerball Pen, Bold Point, 1.0mm.

My lifetime go-to pen going back to junior high school has been the Fisher Space Pen, and I still have several floating around in my vehicles and checkbooks.....
