Later on I got a Pager.   Then in these modern fancy fancy times I make darn sure I’ve got my cell phone.  And I’ll confess ( or brag) I always carried a couple condoms, cuz I sure did like getting lucky.  Before I retired I had to carry a company cell phone in addition to mine.  Today, I do like most of you guys listed above. Additionally, I do ALWAYS have a pen and pocket notebook in my shirt pocket.  (I stopped wearing no-pocket shirts and now all my shirts have a pocket.   Or 2 pockets. )When I wear a 2 pocket shirt I add a pocket screwdriver.   Or 2.  I’ve got the kind with a regular slot screwdriver tip on one end and magnet on the other, one with a Phillips tip and valve stem tool, and one with regular and Phillips tips. Nowadays those Torx bits are everywhere.  That’s carrying things too far, I’m not gonna add more stuff to pocket carry. Us men don’t carry purses, so maybe I should get a set of saddle bags to toss over my shoulders.  Funny story.  Referring to the guy who posted a pic of his mini channel locks.  Recently I was out and about and I was asked to take a look at something. I did, and said well I don’t have a wrench on me.  Dude standing nearby pulled out a very small Crescent wrench out of his pocket and handed it to me.  I was totally impressed that not only did he have one in his pocket but that he offered it to me to borrow.</blockquote>
