Oh great. Thanks a lot Dave: I had no idea "Master Penmen" was even a thing, and now after having checked out their site I feel even worse about my own impressionistic scrawls!Quote:

I enjoy looking at their work, there are so many little details to notice many times
I have just updated myself with this threads most recent posts. I also regret the loss of cursive writing. I have looked at my grandfathers and his peers writing and they were not that great.....
I have had fun at work carrying a fountain pen and when someone asks to borrow it I watch their reaction.
Mostly "older" ones don't miss a beat but I have been pleasantry surprised by a few younger ones. Of course I don't give them an expensive pen!
This post has been corrected many times by a spell checker...............:gaah::roflmao

I have a relative that likes using the nicer uniball pens. To keep from losing them he always keeps the cap when someone asks to borrow them.:hmmm:
I’m old enough to remember inkwells in student desks and nibbed pens in elementary school - no fountain pens since they thought that would make us lazy. We were given a liner to guide our writing on line free paper - you got one liner for the entire school year.
The big debate when I was in grade 6 was the introduction of ballpoint pens and lined paper in schools. They thought that would really make us lazy and detract from our work ethic as adults. I missed my chance at being ink monitor for my class because of ballpoint pens.
You could always tell who was left-handed by the ink smudges on their hands. The contortions they had to do to drag their pens across the page were painful to see.
Damn I guess I,m nit that old, no ink jar on my desk and the Big Chief note pad had lines if I remember correctly. But no ball point pens either, only pencils. Tc
Guess I'm not that old either. Always wondered why if you have little hands you get a big fat pencil, when your hands get bigger you got a smaller pencil. My first three grades had grades 1-5 in the same room.Quote:
