4. Oh Noes! He opened the can! Call Me Wesley has turned into Thaw Me Wesley

[Heidi]

6. "And then the depositions..."

And then the depositions

P.S. That's not CMW. CMW's butt is rounder and his back isn't hairy. Also, he has no flippers.

[Call Me Wesley]

7. Not sure there's this much in the can.

And that's taterguy, not me. ;)

:rofl:

3. My dear Call Me Wesley!

Instant snow?

Is this for the summer, when you're pining away for some?

Cool gift!

And I love this peek into your world, onto your work space...

:hug:

8. He's got a lot of pens

and shit he won't be using anymore since he got his Kindle!

[Call Me Wesley]

10. You're sooooooo mistaken.

Most of them are used on a daily basis. You just can't see the stack of my Moleskine journals (they are at the other side of the desk.) Kindle is pretty nice to read books, but you can't write books with it. There the pens and the journals come in handy, and never forget: Never write anything on a computer first ... ;)

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

12. I recognize those pens in your IKEA pen holder

you ain't foolin me. Ours sit unused as well, with all the new technological advances made in our household lately....

I had 5 siblings...never write anything down on paper you don't want used against you in a court of law or read out loud with your dad holding his belt! :crazy:

[Call Me Wesley]

13. Do you work for IKEA or just have all of their

assortment memorized? :P :rofl:

The most used pens/pencils are on the desk behind the can of instant snow. In the pen holders, there are mostly all of my TOMBO/COPIC markers. A few Pelikan, Caran D'Ache and Montblanc fountain pens as well.



Too late for your advice, there's tons of stuff written down on paper here. Nothing I'm ashamed of, or what did you think I write? http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=216&topic_id=3555

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

14. What writing!

excellent stuff. You are a talented writer CMW!

[Call Me Wesley]

15. Thank you!

I had a good translator. ;)

[tigereye]

17. geek, but a very talented one!

[Heidi]

21. Those are NOT IKEA pen holders!!!!

What an outrage!!!

IKEA's silver-gray desk organizing products are coated mesh. What CMW has is a group of weighted, chrome Brico brush holders up-cycled to hold his jillion graphics pens!!! :yoiks:


In the background: this pen holder is not an IKEA product


IKEA's mesh office product (wastepaper basket). We have two of these. :rofl:

:D

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

24. Oh no!

I've sparked Heidi's temper! My sincerest apologies for mistaking CMW's pen holders as IKEA products...Nice wastepaper basket...it looks just like mine :rofl:

And now I'm seriously off to IKEA to get more shit I probably don't need :crazy:

[Heidi]

25. Har!

Have fun at IKEA! (And good morning! :hug: )

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

32. It was crowded as hell

Everybody spending their Christmas bonuses. I got something nice!

[Call Me Wesley]

9. That's my

graphic arts division pens/pencils collection (some of it,) you're looking at. ;)

Not sure I'm really pining for snow, anyway. I think I've seen enough so far. :hug:

[PeaceNikki]

5. I have a shitload of the real stuff here. Free for the taking!

[Call Me Wesley]

11. I guess we get some of the real stuff soon,

looking at the forecasts here. :scared:

[tigereye]

16. ah, I love you guys!

:rofl: (the snow that you make yourself?) my german is a bit rusty...

[Call Me Wesley]

18. It's right,

And ... "This product is not a toy, keep away from children!"

This snow, I tell you, it's serious. It's serious snow. It's no toy. It's made in China! I assume we all gonna die here, but I have to try it.

:hi:

[tigereye]

19. hmm, what is it made out of?

:scared:

[Heidi]

22. It's a "highly absorbent polymer."

:scared: is right.

[Forkboy]

27. Most of my favorite things are.

:)

[arcadian]

20. Is it made by the same people who make 'whoop ass'?

[Call Me Wesley]

29. I'll let you know when I actually try it.

If it turns out to be like the wonderful 'ice-crystal spray' for your windows you'll never can clean off your windows afterward, I'm going to sue China over this.

[merh]

23. .

[Call Me Wesley]

30. Now I'm totally afraid to open it!

Hi, merh! :hug:

[merh]

37. Hey ya Call Me Wesley

:hug:

I thought canned laughs was the perfect match for canned snow, maybe I should have offered you






:hi: :loveya:

[Broken_Hero]

26. ......

[Call Me Wesley]

31. That pic needs some instant snow!

Didn't he play Superman once? He was great in it. :P

[Forkboy]

28. Cool. I just open the window and scoop some off the sill.

Since you guys don't mind paying for the stuff I think we can arrange something beneficial to both of us. :)

[Call Me Wesley]

33. I fear I can do the same tomorrow,

but keep in mind, that'll be just this boring natural snow, frozen water, ice crystals. Boooooring! This one is brought to you by DOW, 'A Better Life Through Chemistry.' I mean, it's polymers 'n stuff! It's nerdy, it's geeky. It's instant snow all year round. Impress your family (okay, shooting them may top this.)

;)

[hippywife]

34. And yet

you act surprised every time. :rofl:

[Call Me Wesley]

35. LOL!

CMW: Wow! Instant snow! How did you find this?
Heidi: It was sitting there on the shelf.
CMW: That's amazing. Instant snow! I always wanted it. And it's made in China!
Heidi: We're probably gonna die after you open the can.

;)

[hippywife]

36. It ain't

the destination, it's the journey. ;)
