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.

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.....

Make that a third person who had to google it. Those department store cologne / perfumes are terrible for you. It's filled with chemicals and carcinogens. I haven't fucked with cologne probably a decade or so.

If I throw something on, it's waxed based. I do get a lot of compliments on the smell. You also need to find something that works with your natural body composition / odors / pheromones.

This is my favorite but there's tons of other scents and fragrances and not filled with shitty ingredients.

Sorry in advance for shitty pix quality. We have wanted some live edge furniture for a long time. Last fall we met a guy who was starting a live edge woodworking shop. A couple months ago we had him find us a piece of walnut and make us a coffee table and end table. We got the end table today. Really happy with how they turned out.
