Is it a pen, or a super secret way to pass messages to... umm... err... someone?
Perhaps it will be useful with a chummy coworker, or if you work from home like me; your super sexy office-mate-wife!
Yeah it's not encrypted, but who writes hand written notes anymore? That more than anything else provides security that no amount of electronic hacking can crack.

Signing UpStep 1: Pick your weapon of mass secrecy!
Pick your favorite disposable ballpoint pen. I chose opaque. Translucent didn't seem right for a spy message pen, too revealing.
The only important thing is that you can separate the ballpoint head / ink assembly from the body of the pen. This will be your secret message compartment. Although if you couldn't get it open you could use some sort of top secret telepathy technology to transfer your message into the essence of the pen itself!

Have you noticed that people sometimes come up with ideas at the same time? :-)
Will try it out with my wife too sometime soon. I just hope it doesn't come back with a list of Grocery Items in the Sense of Ultimate Secrecy.
Yes I see what you are saying, more simple it is the easy it is to understand. Also you mind doesn't get crowded or overloaded with unnecessary info.
Roll it outside-out to make sure the message can be seen. I put "This Pen Was Stolen From My Desk, Please Return It." it gets a laugh and relieves some of the shame of being a pen thief.
Of course it will probably just encourage them more because they'll think it's funny. I guess I will be picking up a box of clear pens to leave a "This pen was stolen from Dad's desk. Please return it." so they can have extra fun laughing as they steal them from my desk.
Nice simple instructable that really just makes me nostalgic.
