Hello and good morning from Maryland

[Fae925]

Hello. I figure after 6 months of lurking, it's about time I register and post.

I've been a long time fan of pens, more recently fountain pens. Looking forward to more drooling, spending more money, learning as much as possible and becoming more ink stained than ever!!

But first, coffee!

Have a great day!

Welcome home. Pull up a stump and set a spell.

Is the despot's heel still on thy shore?

Having to sing it every morning will do that.

Do classes still start with it?

What I really find funny is that every year the Naval Academy glee club sings it before the Preakness and I have to wonder how many realize it is an anti-Federalist hymn meant to raise encourage to Federal troops. But I always preferred the Hunt Cup and My Lady's Manor.

That'll do it for sure! I never sang it in school.

Born and raised in Maryland - never been to Preakness. lol
