'''Myke Hurley:''' But yeah, so I think that that's actually been part of it. It's like, I'm looking at things like spending 50 pounds or whatever on a new Twisby and I'm like, I'm not sure.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. So, you know, back to the Nakaya and I think we'll end it on this, Myke. I had, and we have a bunch more I want to talk about, but we'll save some of these topics till next week, including the Nakaya review I did on Friday. But just in relation to that, someone commented on that post, you know, he loved the review. He, you know, has a hard time understanding why someone would spend that much on a pin. And I totally understand that. And the question he left it with is, what's the next grail pin? And I was like, hmm, I'm not sure I have an answer for that. So I think that, um, I think that little bit of discovery, um, we, we can look at next week. How about that?

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, that's good. See, that's the problem with like buying a pen like the Nakaya is where do you go? Like, where do you go after that? I mean, we're going to look at it, but like, that is the thing about a pen like that, isn't it?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, totally. Absolutely. You know, I've, uh, you know, I've bought other Nakayas since that one. And, um, but I don't know that there is something beyond that. And I'm okay with that. Cause I'm, I'm pretty excited to look at some other pens and some other price points. It's not all about price. It's about, you know, what appeals to me and what looks good and what I think I will use most importantly. So that's what it's all about.

'''Myke Hurley:''' So, so I'm definitely, I've definitely got my eyes on an Nakaya, but I'm not in a rush. Yep. Like, like, like how I always was about the Lamy 2000. I always wanted one, but was never in a rush to get one. And then when a pen Chalet had a great deal on it, they were doing one at discount. I bought one straight away, you know? Exactly. Because it made sense.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Right. And I've done that with other pens before. That's why I keep a list to where if something on my list happens to pop for a really good price, I'll jump on it. Then, you know, you don't have to rush out today and buy a pen just because it's on your list.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Maybe, maybe the solution is just to force Ron to buy it, buy some of the Kais.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah. I can't see that happening.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' That's not going to happen. Yeah.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I don't even think Ron could get a good deal on those.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' All right, bud. Let's wrap it up. All right. I think we've, we've had a, I feel good. Good. I feel, I feel positive. I'm working on some things mentally and I think it came out. Okay. We'll see. And we'll one step at a time, we'll take it from there. And I think, I think we got it, got it together.
