Okay, a very baked idea but read on. I have had a goodly amount of HB pencils made up and they are now available to whomever desireth some. The colors are Red, Blue, White, Pink, Yellow and Seafoam Green. Although there is no surface indication I am supposing that they are #2 or therebouts.
These
pencils are official* Halfbakery idea utensils, factory equipped with a vast array of words and designs and an unlimited vocabulary, invective included. Each contains a completely unauthored idea fit for the 'Bakery, perhaps even two, and all that stands in the way is an old-fashioned sharpener.
So if you, my fellow 'Bakers, would like a few please e-me at the e-addy in my profile with your (real) name, shipping address, quantity, color preference(s) and any pertinent info.
* because each is stamped HALFBAKERY.COM, in gold.
Idea came from...

Hmm, just a couple of takers? Dos? Zwei? Deux? Kaksi? |

Är det ingen som använder pennor längre? |

C'mon kids, these things are free. I order them you write with them. I got a lot. Get 'em. I destroy your mailing addy afterwards because I'm a hermit and I like it that way. |

Just trying to keep the spirit alive here. |

Actually my company Pashute. (which is in the process of being closed) had a brochure in short Hebrew saying: |
|
| |
Nasa invested millions in a pen that can write in space. The Cosmonauts went there with a pencil. |
|
| |
And a pencil saying Pashute (simple). |
|
| |
I then found out it was a false premise. But following this, my mom bought me a pen like that. |

I've read your blog, [pashute] and you have a lot of good ideas. |

I remember cutting out a full page colour printed advertisement from a magazine (possibly the newspaper sunday supplement, possibly Computer Weekly which my father used to get) probably in the 1980s. It was an advert for a laptop / notebook computer, possibly IBM. The advert showed a paper notebook with ruled pages, and a pencil. The explanation was that the new laptop computer had sufficient storage that it was cheaper MB for MB than paper and pencil for storing text. |

The advert may still be in a scrapbook in my parents attic. I don't know. I should try to find it again. |
