One Good Pen

A couple of weeks ago I found an abandoned pen in a conference room… and my life changed forever!

Well, all right, it wasn’t that dramatic. But the Uni-ball Jetstream pen I found is probably the best pen I’ve used in recent memory. It’s a smooth-flowing ink pen, but it’s not too inky – that is, it doesn’t smudge easily – and it feels pretty good in the hand. I can’t say it’s the most attractive pen I’ve used but, let’s be honest here: I was using a Bic stick pen knock-off at work with a missing cap. My standards aren’t that high.

Pens are a really personal thing. What’s your favorite?
