Not even a dime for a phone call?

Much like Smeghead everything in my pockets must be in thier proper places or I don’t feel right.

Front right pocket: Keys, coins, bills, lighter.
Front left pocket: Hanky to wipe glasses, chapstick, nail clippers, smokes.
Back Right: Wallet
Back Left: Gum, if I have any.

If I have any other pockets I’ll try to put my smokes and lighter there as they’re too bulky and get crushed in my pants pockets.

If not in biker mode, I will have at least DL, CC permit, a credit card, paper money, cell phone, digi camera, .38 revolver, appropiate keys.

If in biker mode, all of the above + 20#'s of other stuff.

Have been known to carry a spare battery for my bike ( dry cell ) in my vest pocket.

Doesn’t it get all warm and squishy? :eek:

A couple of scrap pieces of paper (email addresses, phone numbers, directions), two ratty old transfers for the TTC buses, my wallet, and some spare change. I’m boring.

At home, penknife, + pocket screwdriver in my watch pocket.

If going out, add keys, wallet, change holder, money, comb, handkerchief, pen, pocket book(s).

If going to work, also add transit pass, ID card.

Boring also.

That’s it! The keys are in my ignition. crosses fingers that Jeep is still there

Right now?

Chapstick and a paperclip.

Usually I carry my purse which has my wallet, keys, 4 pens, Sudoku book, ZenTouch, novel, phone, lighter and hand lotion as winter is coming.

Don’t know why I still carry the lighter, I quit smoking a couple weeks ago.

Oh, and I usually have the latest copy of Dose or The Weal in my bag too (free papers that I read, one is on nearly every corner the other is the college paper).

Chain wallet in my back right pocket, keys in my front left. Gum and lighter in my front right, random papers, a knife and other crap in the cargo pockets. Program schedule in my left sweatshirt pocket, CD player in my right. Basically, everything I tend to take out often is on my right, and everything I take out less than twice is on the left. I didn’t choose this orientation. My handedness did.

Everything has its place, but there are several configurations.

Great link - thanks. I wonder if the funeral he was going to was JFK’s?

All I have in my pockets is my wallet. I don’t feel comfortable having my pockets weighed down with lots of stuff. Sometimes I wish I were a woman so I could carry a handbag (US purse) to keep my stuff in.

Pocket the right: Pen and wallet.

Pocket the left: Wrist watch (with broken watch band) and cell phone.

Cargo pocket the left: sunglasses case.

Hanging from a belt loop: keys on a carbeener (sp?)

Looped into my belt: Gerber multi-tool knife dealie.

I usually buy the stuff that in a bubble pack covered with foil so it doesn’t get warm and squishy. But if I don’t consume it quickly then the individual peices will get all cracked up and start to crumble.

The date of the conversation was August 9, 1964, so I’d say no, not JFK’s funeral.

I’m not at all sure I’m confortable knowing that a POTUS used the word “bunghole.” Talk about TMI.
Oh, yes. My pockets.

Front left – keys (and cell, when I carry it out of my car).

Front right – paper money, eye drops (coins only till I get home or to my car. I hate carrying coins around. It makes you jingle).

Rear left – comb.

Rear right – wallet.

I asked about men’s handbags in this thread. I actually went through with it and purchased one of these - the “Europa Field Bag”, to be specific. I love it. I have absolutely nothing in my pockets right now.

Boy, some of you guys carry tons of crap around. I have my wallet (with money, ID, and credit cards), 30 cents in change, my keys, a small pocket knife (on the keychain), and my cellphone (clipped onto my belt).

A little wallet thingie with a keyring attached. That’s it. I’m a girl but purses I can do without (and makeup too, so that negates a lot of the need for a purse).

I remember Reagan going to a McDonald’s during the '84 campaign, ordering and getting his food, and walking away with the tray. The press corps shouted at him that he had to pay for his food. An obliging White House handler did it for him.

Oh, in my pockets?

At home or on my own time
Left front: keys
Right front: to-do list; penknife
Left rear: 3 or 4 Kleenex

At work (suit and tie)
As above, and also…
Inside left pocket of suit: Calendar and pen
Inside right pocket of suit: Wallet

And FWIW, payphones around here take 50 cents now, even for a local call.
