[Rhodes22-list] To while away the day....

[Brad Haslett]

Elle,

I'm such a CSOB I bought one of those printer cartridge refill kits and buy
ink from Office Depot.  If I had it to do over, I'd save the money on the
kit.  All you need is a syringe and a small drill bit.  Now if I only knew
how to make my own paper.
