It could have been a TV commercial: I opened the washer to find my silver bullet Parker Jotter shining brilliantly among the freshly laundered clothes. Trying not to screech, I sorted through every piece, looking for ink: Nothing! I then grabbed a notebook thinking, "Nah". It wrote as smooth and true as the first time I used it. Timex has got nothing on my Parker.
How many of you still enjoy the therapeutic value of composing thoughts in longhand?
I used to have Parker pens! They wrote so smoothly.
The therapeutic value of banging the crap out of my keyboard is much higher than the therapeutic value of writing longhand, but I do enjoy writing a nice newsy letter every once in awhile, mostly to my older aunts.

I do. I forget sometimes how much it helps until I do it again. I commute to the city by train, and I don't want to haul my laptop so sometimes I bring a notebook. My own problem is that after more than 30 years of typing, I've lost the ability to write clearly, and more than once I've spent more time than I should trying to decipher my own handwriting.
