    Pilot G2 gel ink. But I always keep a fine-tip felt pen, too, just in case.

    >>They manufacture waterproof Reporter's notebooks? Wow, I never heard of that.<<

    Developed by crazy hikers ... $3.85 for one.
    Also used by cops and firemen.

    And no pens with caps for me. Clicks or twists.
    I always end up losing the caps and making a mess.

    OK, Klopmus.
    Jerry: What kind of pen is that?
    Jack Klompus: This pen?
    Jerry: Yeah. Jack: This is an astronaut pen, it writes upside down, they use this in space.
    Jerry: Oh wow, that's the astronaut pen, I heard about that, where did you get it.
    Jack: Oh it was a gift.
    Jerry: Because a lot of times, when I write in bed, and I have to turn and lean on my elbow, to make the pen work.
    Jack: Take the pen.
    Jerry Oh no.
    Jack: Go ahead.
    Jerry: I couldn't.
    Jack Cmon take the pen!.
    Jerry: I can't take it.
    Jack: Do me a personal favor.
    Jerry: No I'm not comfortable, I cannot take it.
    Jack: Take the pen!
    Jerry: Are you sure?
    Jack: I'm positive, take the pen.
    Jerry: Oh thank you very much, thank you, gee boy.

    I'm still using Wynfrey hotel pens from SEC media days. When those run out, I'll turn to the 200 Hampton Inn pens I have.

    This thread is getting funnier than "Pimp my Urinal."

    What's scary is the humor is unintentional.

    because it has to be done ...

    Alex Trebek: Yeah, it was a trick question, Mr. Connery. Why don't you pick a category?
    Sean Connery: I've got to ask you about the Penis Mightier.
    Alex Trebek: What? No. No, no, that is The Pen is Mightier.
    Sean Connery: Gussy it up however you want, Trebek. What matters is does it work? Will it really mighty my penis, man?
    Alex Trebek: It's not a product, Mr. Connery.
    Sean Connery: Because I've ordered devices like that before - wasted a pretty penny, I don't mind telling you. And if The Penis Mightier works, I'll order a dozen.
    Alex Trebek: It's not a Penis Mightier, Mr. Connery. There's no such thing!
    Nicholas Cage: Wait, wait, wait.. are you selling Penis Mightiers?
    Alex Trebek: No! No, I'm not.
    Sean Connery: Well, you're sitting on a gold mine, Trebek!

    I would like to third this opinion. The V5 is the shit. It's pretty much all I use (not counting, of course, as Michael pointed out, the many, many Marriott pens I inevitably have floating around).

    Although I like the blue V5s better than the black, it's harder to find them in "Extra Fine"
