	Hi, Brad. Hello, Mike Hurley. How are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm good. I'm good. Just thinking about inks and, you know, spinning my brain around in circles all over ~~stationary~~ stuff, which is why we're here, which is why I do what I do. It's never not interesting in the ~~stationary~~ world, which is a funny thing to say out loud.		Hi, Brad. Hello, Mike Hurley. How are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm good. I'm good. Just thinking about inks and, you know, spinning my brain around in circles all over stationery stuff, which is why we're here, which is why I do what I do. It's never not interesting in the stationery world, which is a funny thing to say out loud.

	So I have some follow-up for you, Brad, which is in regards to our listener who wrote in last time that they'd had a house fire and the pens were damaged by soot and there was a cleaning offered by the insurance company. We both had some feelings about what we would do, but we wanted to see if any of our listeners had any experience of this.

	It could be, you know, platinum preppy, which y'all will catch me raving about, you know, the platinum preppy perping up as much as any pin that I have. And that was a $7 pin, right? So that's a, that's a whole topic for another day. We'll save that. But yeah, I, I love this stuff.

	I love seeing the creativity. I love seeing the art, artwork, the craftsmanship. It's, it seems like a, like just the ~~stationary~~ business as a whole is in a pretty good place that we get all of these smaller things. Like we can talk about Lamy on one hand and like the thousands and thousands of pins that they make at a, at a time.		I love seeing the creativity. I love seeing the art, artwork, the craftsmanship.

	And then we can talk about someone who's making something really cool where there's, there's 20 of them. We can talk about them in this, in the same context. So that's why I like talking about all this stuff. This episode is brought to you by Enigma Stationery.

	So it's definitely like the step-up type of pen. Yeah, like in sizing. And it's a non-demonstrator. It's kind of a little bit longer than a standard pro gear, but slimmer than one.

	Sarah says, I remember a few years ago, Brad, that you broke your dominant wrist. While I remember you talking about how it affected your ~~stationary~~ usage shortly after the injury and during, I don't remember how the long-term recovery period went. I broke my dominant wrist a month ago in a skiing accident.		Sarah says, I remember a few years ago, Brad, that you broke your dominant wrist.

	I get my cast off in about a week. I want to know what I'm in for. Yeah, so depending on the severity of the break. So I did not have to have surgery, but I had a pretty bad break.
