Boston:... tea parties, so Herbin Lie de Thé

 

New word: Berlin (Germany)

 

BTW: when I picked Vegas, it wasn't random. I associate LIberace with flamboyance and large-scale shows. Where are you most likely to find a blingy spectacle? Vegas.

Vegas: Organics Studio Neon

 

new word: Brooklyn (while we're on the topic of random cities)

Oh I understood..... I thought about telling you that the Liberace museum was now closed but it was on Tropicana...and I don't think he played at the Flamingo, but he may have.

New word: Dilemma

 

I thought that was Concrete Blondes....

 

Dilemma - Diamine Flamingo Pink

 

Because I'm still thinking about Liberace ... and ... I don't know... is it too close to Cerise? Is it too similar to Coral? Should I????

 

New word: Solution (buy more)

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Futuristic: Sailor Nano Black. I always think of Star Trek when I hear the word "nano". New word: Grand

Funny, I'm so intellectual (!) I think of Mork, from Mork & Mindy. (yes, I know he said "Nanoo, Nanoo"). I do know what "nano" means, I have a Degree in Nuclear Physics, but I'm very immature.

Problem: Yard-O-Led Blue Black - nib creep, nib crud and clogging in my Yard-O-Led pen.

 

New word: negligence (as I have a desk covered in tort law, but I wonder what ink or pen abuse stories will come to light).

Negligence: A mystery green ink that once filled my green Waterman Hemisphere. I thought the pen was empty, but found the mystery ink upon rinsing before a fresh fill. I rinsed until clean and filled the pen with CdA Saffron. The ink ran green. I then left the section to soak over night. It again rinsed clean and water drawn into the converter was clear. Tried some Diamine Pumpkin ink this time. Ran green. The pen was badly neglected, and I am paying for my negligence.

 

New word: Eager

Ah, and I thought it was tarts?

 

But, I was thinking of Problems, and Torts and that made me think of your bottles of Polar Blue.

New Word: Curious

Curious: Sailor Bung Box 88. A curious ink, I can't for the life of me figure out what the gold/red shift in it is. It doesn't sheen, but it does?
