Bag Suggestions

I think I need more help with items that I carry daily, than with orginization. So heres the inventory...

powerbook
20 gig ipod
mead zip binder
nalgene water bottle
lunch
power block
mouse
earbuds
firewire cable
pens and pencils
moleskine
digital camera(kodak)

Right now I have a Jansport Supersac that has been with me since freshman year of college, I have a large timbuk two messenger bag that has been here that long as well.

I ordered a timbuk2 laptop messenger bag, and expect it this week...but do you all have any suggestions?

Thanks

I do put the pens and pencils in a pouch. I think I got it at Shopko. I dig it.

Right now I put all the cables and mouse, and power supply in a camera bag. I like the camera bag as a item for road trips. I travel a ton.

I think your right about the camera. That might be a weak link. The mouse too.

I will relaod and assess without those items.

As far as the ipod, I have the timbuk2 holder, and I love it. It attaches to teh strap of the messenger bag.

The TUMI thing, not really me. Though I am growing up each day.

Thanks though.

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. »
