Default So, where's my jetpack?

I'm holding out for the Swiss Army Knife that has a SPOT tracker built in, with satellite voice capability too, and the osmotic water collector, and a capacitive discharge campfire starter.

16 Gig flash drive on a Swiss Army knife and a light too boot, man am I out of touch.

My knife is at least 10 years old and is mighty handy around an airplane or anywhere else but it is strictly hard drive - like blades and screw drivers. I don't go anywhere without it - except a commercial flight. I had 2 Swiss knives at one time, but a TSA worker confiscated one of them a while back. What a sad day that was. So sad, I've all but quite commercial flying.

My Dad gave each of his 3 sons a new pocket knife every Christmas for at least the last 30 years of his life. Due to my own disorganization I can put my hands on only about half of mine, but I think I'd miss a flight before I'd turn one over to the TSA. The monogramed Leatherman I've been carrying for who knows how many years has made several trips back to the car from LAX and Staples Center.

I was lucky enough to hear Glen talk to a 'home crowd' audience about six weeks ago. An amazing, down to earth guy. No hyperbole, just results.

I've moved my comments on that subject to the 2008 thread concerned, which is a more appropriate place. Happy to discusss and discourse there.
