Sadly the “forever” is just an indication that the stamp will work forever - even if prices go up, you won’t need to add the difference to send a letter. I wish it was related to an intention to continue global relations, but it never has.

And two meatballs, and cannoli chips. Oops.

I just read this story last week and am so proud that I understood this reference (pats self on back).

I love the fact that the government is officially dumbed down now to cartoon animals.

Gnarly - and totally bogus to the max.

I started creating my own paper planners on a good quality heavy bond so I could use the Pilot without feathering or bleeding.

I have a pretty light hand so the zebras work ok for me - they are a just in case rather than a consistent use pen. The Pilot, though, is a workhorse and I’ve never had any issues (except the inevitable drop while closed, which means a thorough cleaning so the ink doesn’t get all over me).

I use a Pilot Metropolitan (fountain pen) as my everyday writer and note taker. I keep Zebra disposable fountain pens in my purse, and I use Pentel Energel (fine) for lists and jottings.

Russian TV? Ugghhhh.
