What do you need a pen for – with JPA everything is paperless?

I downloaded from JPA - perhaps you should try harder to remember it?

I don't need a pen because I use a PDA.

Has anyone seen my stylus?

What do you mean "these days".
Pens may come and go but stylus never goes out of fashion.

I dunno, all this technology. I used to have a pencil, but now it's pointless.

With the way the IT works (or not as the case may be), I'm thinking of going back to a slate. Now would I be using a stylus or a slate pencil? Anyone older and wiser care to comment?

But you can't put a PDA up each nostril when you put your underpants on your head and say "Wibble" to the JPA computer.....

You should try one of those fantastic steel pencil sharpeners.
