Thread: What do you carry in your pocket or on your belt

You'll be hard-pressed to find me without my Emerson CQC-7B knife, keys for too many things, a wallet with little or no cash and a cell phone.

HEY!!!
How DARE you question Jimbo's masculinity??? This man is Australian, after all, a member of the meanest, manliest, most testestrone-laden species on the planet....











































.....oops!


Seriously, though....man-bags are only carried by those so secure in their sexuality that there is no question of what makes their willie winkle. I've seen big, burly bikers on Harley-Davidsons carrying man-bags....they're especially useful if you're riding a bike to and from work (which, somehow, from what little I know of Jimbo, wouldn't surpirse me). Man bags in the United States are common (yes, even in podunk North Idaho) and becoming commoner. Jimbo is just on that cutting edge where fashion and practicality merge. (all too unusual these days!)

Not going to touch that one.

Sometimes they are just TOO easy

Hey now, I carry a man bag, but it is a briefcase with a shoulder strap, and I actually cary briefs in it to and from work. In it I carry my PSP and a couple book for down time when I am not billing my time. Oh and a dictaphone with tapes, an umbrella, 5 pens, (not to mention the fountain pen in my shirt pocket), some post-it notes, two highlighters, my portfolio with an extra pad of paper, a swiss army knife, keys, book of matches (cause you just don't know when you will have to burn something), business card holder, ....

holy crap, I am a woman.

Both classic answers. I sometimes carry a lighter with me (even though I don't smoke) just for the smoking hot females who smoke. Always good to remember the lighter. Even though them smoking is a turn off

Ah, another Red Green fan I presume!

I did omit my everyday accessory, my walking cane of which I have many. My favorites are an oak cane with deer horn handle that my uncle made, a blackthorne from Ireland and one I made myself using a table leg, rabbit fur, and an old clay pipe head for the knob....when looked at sideways it appears to be a peace pipe. I figured since I had to use them, bad back and hips, I may as well collect them.

On the manbag issue......think Jack Bauer.

oh, Keep your stick on the ice.

Go Canadian Television!
I have met Steve Smith (Red Green) and Patrick McKenna (Harold Green) before, and actually Harold went to the same highschool as myself. Though he is a little older than me, he did come back when I was there for some improv stuff with our Improv team, which was all showcased in an assembly.

Now that's kewl. I love Red Green, have the dvd of his movie "Duct Tape Forever". Some of the expressions Harold comes up with are priceles. DTF is the one dvd I can turn to that guarantees a laugh. I'm not sure why Red hasn't caught on in America, he came long before Jeff Foxworthy and redneck humor. I used to use the wav of Red saying keep your stick on the ice as a shutdown wav on my computer.

I am a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess.



Some of us in the US watch that show, although I did not know that there was movie. it will have to be the next movie I get.
