sigh ... I'm a contract worker, and have no desk.

Here's what I came to work armed with, though:

• 1 travel cup filled with strong coffee
• 3 Perl books:
  • Perl 5 Pocket Reference (for "what was that function?")
  • Perl Cookbook (for "how the heck do I do that?")
  • Object Oriented Perl (for light reading on the bus)
• 1 cell phone
• 1 mechanical pencil
• 1 clipboard with several sheets of paper, each already scribbled on (design at its finest)
