As Walter and Peter discovered, it"s a pen - just a pen. But when you need to write, do you really want gimmicks and lights? Or do you want something that writes reliably and just happens to be a fun reminder of something a little more exciting than a day at the office? Our thoughts exactly! It writes in black or green, but does not open, close, or fix anything. Unless said thing can be fixed by writing on it, in which case, this pen will fix it!
