i want you, i want you so bad

Still not a great deal of drawing going on around here. So here's a little doodle I did, a while back, with one of THESE PENS. It wasn't my pen, I'd borrowed it to doodle with. However, finding this drawing has reminded me of how truly amazing those pens are. In fact, I do believe they are the greatest inventions of all time. Why don't I have one?

I'm off to source four colour ballpoint multi pens....

Andrea: you might try jetpens.com. I bought a multi-pen there for my wife. You can also get refills. (Disclaimer: I receive no remuneration from jetpens.com.)

Did you ever get in your Christmas stocking one of those huge pens with about 8 different colour cartridges? I used to love those - this is the grown up version and I can see why you want one!

I used to have one of these pens when I was a little kid. I remember how amazing and smart it seemed and how many hours I've spent trying to figure out how it works and how on earth someone came up with that idea! :)
Love your different handwritings! :)

Ahhhh....when you find them, send me one to. You know I don't like ballpoints, but these are the exception. They take me back in time.

Thanks, folks.

Dave, god link, thanks.

Caroline, oh yeah. Of course. They were stocking fillers, weren't they? Back in the, er, 70s!

Iva, I seem to remember they used to be quite difficult to master.

Thank you thank you thank you.
