We went to the New York Metropolitan Pen Show (formerly known as the Long Island Pen Show) and lost our shirts, literally! Tom and I talk about our experience at the pen show, what we purchased (and didn't purchase), and how much delicious meat we ate at The Cast Iron Pot.

I miss my lost Platinum Curidas. For all the grief we gave this pen in an earlier Podcast episode, it grew on me and became my study buddy over the past several months. Yet, I still can't bring myself to buy a replacement for the Curidas that I lost. When I eventually do, I'll buy one of these Japanese-made, retractable nib fountain pens in RED. It looks so hot.
