[Spotlight Post] Celtic Pipes Rock – Oceans of Fire – Cross Post
This was my second review for Celtic Music Magazine IF you like this review, go check out the Celtic Music Magazine Website and podcasts for MORE music. I admit to spending much of my life buying into the “mainstream” belief that bagpipes were something to be avoided, even after doing some work at a renaissance […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Dong-A Miffy 0.5mm Blue Black Ink
So I bought this pen for the giggle factor. Somewhere inside all of us is a 12-year-old who finds low brow humor in stuff. So, yes, in honor of the inner 12-year-old, I had to buy the Dong-A Miffy pen from JetPens. This is the Dong-A Miffy blue-black gel ink in a roller ball stick […]
[Spotlight Post] Trinity River Whalers & Celtic Music Magazine
A couple of weeks ago, I agreed to work with Marc Gunn’s, Celtic Music Magazine reviewing music. It’s a non-paying gig, but I get access to music I wouldn’t normally. He also doesn’t mind cross-posting, so we’re going to test that out… IF you like this review, go check out the Celtic Music Magazine Website […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Fisher Space Pen Lime Green
Today’s pen is the Fisher Space Pen. I think I had one years ago, but where it ended up is anyone’s guess. This one I picked up at Paradise Pen Company as part of the Birthday Pilgrimage. I was looking for something a bit more affordable this time around that was still cool… and this […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] ONLINE Schreibergerate Fountain Pen Medium Nib
Back in February I did my Birthday Pilgrimage to Paradise Pen Company in Dallas. I try to pick up something I’ve never bought before. This time I picked up a Schreibgerate ONLINE fountain pen with a medium point nib. This one is part of the ONLINE Academy line designed for “Young” writers. And as the […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The Pilot FriXion Revisit
A while back I wrote a review that started: I’ve seen a lot of chatter on many of the pen blogs and sales sites on the awesomeness of the Pilot FriXon Erasable Gel Pen. A lot of people seem to really like this pen, and why not? It’s a gel pen that comes in a […]
[Spotlight Post] A Follow Spot of Sorts
I wish I could say this crazy week is over, but it’s not. We have two more days to sell art and hang with the amazing performers and crew of Scarborough Renaissance Festival. I’m trying to get my neurons firing for an actual spotlight, but it’s not happening. Not that there aren’t so many awesome […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Motiva Rectractable Ball Point Pens
Today’s review is of the Motiva retractable ball point pens – a 5 pen multi-color pack. Motiva is a “house” brand from Staples. I picked them up with a rewards bonus. These Motiva pens are packaged as an “advanced ink system”. They are ball point pens in a 0.7 mm point – called “Fine”, which […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] J. Herbin Lie de The (Tea Brown) Ink
So last week, I talked about the J. Herbin roller ball hybrid pen that I really like. Because I have some family stuff to deal with this week, I’m just going to add to that by talking about the Lie de Thé (Tea Brown) ink from the same company. You saw it a bit in […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] J. Herbin Refillable Hybrid Roller Ball – Medium Point
Today’s pen is something a little different. It’s a J. Herbin refillable roller ball pen – medium point. This is a pen I picked up from my last JetPens.Com order along with the current ink – also from J. Herbin. You’d think there’d not be anything special about a refillable roller ball – well, this […]
