The 323 was an early PenBBS model, coming to market in late 2017 - a bit before PenBBS came on my radar. 

Was the 323, after the 266, the second pen PenBBS released? Drop some knowledge in the comments. It's hard to find background info on Pe...

Riding the other evening, I passed a storefront that caught my eye. A bunch of bicycle wheels. But not a bike shop.

I stuck m...

I don't know how much roads cost to build. $5 million per mile? No doubt, it depends on the road.

Jiannan Road starts off Sec. 2 of Zhi Shan Rd in Shilin and heads over the hill to ...

In his recent book, James Comey was pretty gentle in his treatment of Donald Trump. He likens Trump's approach to governing to a mob boss, but doesn't make the point with much force.

"As I found myself thrust into the Trump orbit, I once agai...

Okay, lets be honest; we all have a small slight problem (maybe not so small) when it comes to how much TV, Netflix or movies we watch. I mean, its not just entertainment, its a lifestyle, right? Well, I'm not going to go too much on why watching ...

The playoffs have been epic already. It’s hard to believe the finals are finally here.

Most of us don't begin studying for our final exams until either a few days or THE day before the big test. Reason is? Who knows. Scientifically, it is proven to be less effective when cramming for a test just moments before taking it, but since t...

This was a pen I was prepared to like. At $12, it's a bargain. Its small size, however, will keep it from becoming a personal favorite. But for some folks, this new Delike wood fountain pen can be a real winner.

I love the wood. After my positi...
