How to carry a pencil, and why
[Archived in Entry]
[ Pretty Good on Paper] I know, you are going to suggest the space pen. So hang on. I gave the space pen a good honest try. I did. My paternal Grandfather was heavily involved in the space program and worked for NASA, and it is kinda cool looking, etc. I know, I know, it has special powers. I has thixotropic ink that is hermetically sealed in its pressurized barrel. Its shelf-life is like 100 years. It writes several times longer than most ball-point pens. It writes at an altitude of 12,000 feet or something. But I get a wicked headache at that altitude and don’t feel like writing. It writes at extreme temperatures, but I try to avoid these. My hands easily get too cold to write. And I live in Massachusetts, so it doesn’t get past 100 degrees very often. And, usually, when I am under water I don’t, for whatever reason, have a pocket in which to carry a pen. When in the rain I am usually on my way to someplace dry. And the last time I was upside-down I was a little too busy to write, and stuff slips out of my pockets when I am upside down anyway.

All I wanted to do was get all my stuff done as scheduled and with enough time left over for me and my loved ones.
