Wallet suggestions

Can any of you help me with my quest of a good GTD wallet:

It should not be complicated but I have not found anything yet, here are my specs:

1) 2 cash slots (one for cash, one for receipts for my expense account)

2) a few credit card slots

3) Index card holder, or notepad

4) small pen

---------------

Once I have this I will be set ... one of my biggest problems is not writing down things that I need to do when I am on the road and then forgetting them or stressing about forgetting them.

if you can help me I will be eternally grateful

Cheers

Have you thought of one...

Have you thought of one of those inserts they include in overly complicated women's wallets? I have one I just threw on the Goodwill pile that has:

--a clear slot for DL
--four add'l slots
--two interior slip pockets, either of which could accommodate index cards/cash/receipts

Only question is whether after you shoved all that crap in there, whether you could comfortably clip a pen into the fold.

Then again, I just chucked my freebie checkbook insert onto the Goodwill pile. Black nylon, fairly neutral, gender-wise. Email me off the boards with shipping info and it's yours for the asking.

UPDATE: Just double-checked and there's an additional full-sized pocket on the outside, for a total of 3 index-card/money-sized pockets and 4 credit-card-sized ones. Woo-hoo! Pocket bonanza!

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
