Pockets

Inspired by a recent daily-ish (today's, in fact), I felt compelled to start this thread.


“What I Found in My Pocket,” an essay by GK Chesterton, collected in ”Tremendous Trifles.” Which was apparently never read by Gollum, living well beneath the Misty Mountains, "What has it got in its pocketses?”

I needed to post some ’meaningless drivel,' as I'm going through ’stuff' and need a diversion. So, what's in your pocketses? No being tricksy, nasty little permieses...

Unlike Bilbo, I have a pocket hankerchief.

I just finished making dinner, so I'm not dressed for work, my pockets only contain 2 kleenexes, my pocketknife, and a nasal inhaler thing.

The other day after working I shook out of my pockets: my phone, the piece of metal I keep with the phone, my pocketknife, the nasal thing, kleenexes, channel locks, a carabine, a bolt and two nuts, a handful of cloth plant ties, some pipe cleaner twist ties, a few blackeyed peas, a couple of neat rocks, a bandana, and an earmuff, some bits of pink string, and some safety pins. I also had on my pouch, which had 2 pairs of gloves (leather and mechanic's,) the mower keys, bug bite drops, a few more rocks, a container of cough drops, a fork I was untying knots with, a fork that didn't work for the knots, and a bungee cord.

:D
I like neat rocks!

Lip balm, brush/pick for teeth, 4 completely different pocket knives, phone, pocket-size reading glasses, coin purse, pen-spike, holstered firearm.


Oops - and a mini tin of mints & a lipstick!
