I think that might just be my favorite James Taylor song. Sort of a toss up between that song and his cover of "You've Got a Friend", with "Fire and Rain" running a really close third.

I'm also a big fan of his cover of How Sweet It Is and Carolina in My Mind.

Bobje, do you mind sharing what kind of paper that is? Thank you.

I was looking through some of the older posts and found some quotes I wanted to try out:

Maya, I love the flourishes in your script, and that Noodler's Navajo Turquoise looks great.

HH1990, the paper in these samples was from a Mead Five-Star notebook, published in January 2017. There is a detailed discussion of low-cost composition notebooks in the following thread. The fountain-pen-friendly-ink editions change regularly, so details about country of origin and publishing date become important.

Hi! Maybe my turn? I would like to offer a remarkable philosophical quote:

 

 

The mind is strange, but it has its reasons. The mind sees in a single glimpse life unlived, hopes unrewarded, emptiness and silence where there should have been noise and love.. . Philip Kindred Dick

Thank you Andrew! Yesterday I got a notice that it was my turn (which I did not know!), please take my spot. I consider it a favor, as it seems I do not know if I am coming or going! Much appreciated. Your Philip Kindred Quote is officially on the roster! Thx!

[Andrew_L]

Thank you Maya!
I just saw a decrease in activity on theme and decided to use it brazenly. Thank you for your favour. I did not know that the turn will must send personally.​

The relationship between the capitals and the lower-case letters is so graceful, David.
