It’s Friday (TGIF) and I must admit, I am part of a cult. I am a Moleskine’ista.
There isn’t much I can do about it. These little notebooks have been with me all over the world and back. There is one for my geeky high school notes, I have photo chemical recipes in another, I have different colored ones for law school classes and projects, and I have one that I use for ideas and projects for my chairmanship of the SBAA.
I have waived it at irate cabbies, hidden behind it while lounging over coffee, and used it to make a point during a speech. I once waived it so furiously during a seminar that the participants started giggling and offered up a resounding Hallelujah — I guess I looked like some type of southern preacher with my bible in hand. I had my Moleskine full of ideas and I was invincible!
Other than outing myself, I have a reason for making this post — in this world of techno gadgets and electrons whirring around, it is nice to see that other folks have an addiction to such an old-world bricks & mortar type of device. Along with my trusty fountain-pens (Pelikan really are the best), nothing is more satisfying than a good cup of joe, a battered Moleskine and a head full of outlandish ideas that need to be put onto paper for all posterity.
Have a great weekend.

I love my Moleskine — used it all through my military career!
