Yeah, actually, a good thread about pens would have been awesome. Pens are awesome. You can write, with them, draw with them, etc.

Shame, Kattullus! SHAAAME!

Huh. Last I looked, they weren't actually selling pens.

I guess sometimes the joke is so popular, it turns real.

Like clapping your hands to revive Tinkerbell, or something.

bachelor#3: Isn't it time for a good post about the story of Pepsi Blue?

I mean, as soda follies go, it's not quite new Coke, but it's still up there. An interesting slice of pop culture.

You can use the pens to write a letter to the good folks at PowergenItalia.com or ExpertsExchange.com ...

Crap. Something odd going on with my Internet connection. Didn't see zsazsa's comment when I previewed. Sorry.

Too bad the website www.powergenitalia.com isn't the website of the Italian subsidiary of Powergen.

If you're not in the mood for Pepsi Blue, how about a nice bottle from ipwine.com?
