If only it was real....

My friends know I'm hopelessly in love with fountain pens, even though I can't afford to buy them.
I love to just surf for pen sites and drool longingly at the pictures.
Sometimes I get catalogs in the mail with fountain pens in them.
Morgen calls this my "pen porn".

Well, here's a site called "Pen Island".
Except the URL makes it look more like "Penis Land".

http://www.penisland.net/

Read the description they gave:

"Whether you're looking for a long and skinny pen,
a thick pen, a fountain pen that squirts ink,
or even a black pen, we have just the one for you."

As you might expect, it's just a joke.
Click on any of the headings (Waterman, etc), and it just sends you to Google Ads.

Way to get my hopes up, guys.

Well, they SAY the system is down. If you click for the sample pen they say they are out of stock... it might be a way to sell adds for Google, or they might be just setting things up, or maybe they'll sell the domain name for big bucks. Seems like a domain name like that could be more lucrative as Penis Land.

Whall: Make mine a Daily Double!

GigglePixie: Cruel indeed!

Shelli: Very! :)

DesertSongbird: Excellent point...

Marilyn: I wonder how much they make from their ads.

The people at Penis Island were really pissed that some pen nut stole their domain name.

Janna said...

Travis: Hee!

Morgen: Sucks, doesn't it? (Ooops, wait...)
