\"saddleback\"<\/p>\n

This is what my inside of my office briefcase\u00a0looks like today.<\/p>\n

The bag contains:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. My\u00a0Dell office laptop, sans\u00a0charger. I have multiple chargers in the office and at home, so I don’t have to carry them around.<\/li>\n
  2. My iPad.<\/li>\n
  3. Bluetooth keyboard for the iPad.<\/li>\n
  4. My Kindle.<\/li>\n
  5. A Macbook Air, along with charger, because my boss insisted that I carry one for this presentation that I am working on, to ensure MS Office compatibility. (The\u00a0laptop runs Ubuntu, and OpenOffice)<\/li>\n
  6. A DVD\u00a0of\u00a0Under The Skin<\/em>, the Scarlett Johanssen movie which pal William borrowed from the LA Public Library for me, after having recommended it for weeks.<\/li>\n
  7. Two volumes of Saturn Apartments<\/em>, a manga that I am reading at the moment, set in a future where Earth is a natural preserve and humanity lives on an artificial ring-world around the planet. The book follows the lives on window-washers who live on the lowest level of said ring-world apartments.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I am headed to lunch and I am wondering what I should read.\u00a0Yes, really.<\/p>\n

    The Saddleback Thin Briefcase<\/a>, by the way, is a heavy piece of work – 3 kgs\/6 pounds by itself. Sure, the leather is luscious, and it’s starting to get a wonderful patina with age. It also comes with Saddleback Leather’s 100-year guarantee and all,\u00a0but\u00a0I could probably give someone a concussion by swinging it around when it’s empty<\/em>. It gets a fair share of comments when I walk around, but it can get plenty painful on the shoulders especially when I have been\u00a0walking around all day. On the positive side, that forces me to avoid carrying my laptop on trips, which works out really well in\u00a0airport security.<\/p>\n

    So, what do you have in your<\/em> bag?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
