    What's your go-to pencil?

    I prefer a good Dixon-Ticonderoga Black #2 -- Solid Pencil, Long Name, Great Results. Writes beautifully -- Originally developed by Joseph Dixon... It is the perfect pencil for all of my needs. I use black because no one else where I work uses them so I know if someone stole my pencil...

    You Can't Take It With You
