When your 5-year-old gets on your computer
This is what happens when you are not in your office and your five-year-old knows how to open your webcam software. He has done this more than once.

Aline Kelly's Life Remembered
This is the video that the funeral home provides to the family for the remembrance service and for posterity. They take scanned photos provided to them and produce a simple video in a generic template, but it is nice to have and see. This is what played during the visitation service for Grandma Kelly.

Cross 3506 (Century) Fountain Pen Review
Today I review a somewhat vintage Cross 3506 fountain pen in lustrous chrome. For decades I have owned Cross ballpoints and was familiar with the quality of the Cross name. Cross now makes this pen under the Century model name.

PEN MAIL - Vintage Sheaffer Fineline, Waterman Jif, and Hero 91
It is another pen mail day in our household. My wife has been getting a lot of inexpensive Chinese pens from wish.com lately. The one I am showing today just happened to arrive this morning and it was still on my desk, so I am showing that one to you. I also show you the Waterman Jif I got since the last pen mail video. To top it off, I got an old Sheaffer Fineline pen that I was able to restore back to some semblance of glory and working order today.
