Pen/supply hoarders unite!

From an early age, I had a love of office supplies. I remember testing all the pens and pencils to find the perfect one. To this day, I am not to be trusted with a cart in an office supply store. I guard my supply stash jealously, offering up only my rejects to unprepared colleagues and students. Canaryspouse finds this very odd, but I can't be alone in this. What is your favorite office product? I am never without my Zebra pencil or my Rotring pen.

Confused and sad. Or happy. I'm not sure...

I suggest you wander
over here
and gush with like-minded individuals.
I suffer from the lust, too, even though I don't actually have a use for most of that stuff.

My work ethic is somewhere in Lake Buena Vista. I need to go look for it.

I'm only on the 2nd page, but that thread is a thing of beauty. This site has already brought me to Oberon Designs, and now the Levenger site has me enthralled. I foresee trouble.
