Backpacks suck.

That is all.

1. Ohh! Get a messenger bag!

That's what I use for school; much easier access, and you don't have to heave it over your back.

[eyesroll]

2. I tried some messenger bags, but I think they'd be worse.

40 pounds of law books, 5 pounds of laptop, 5 more pounds of assorted other crap...I'd develop a permanent lean.

3. try a purse -- it'll limit what you carry.

and if you really want to be disciplined -- a clutch or an evening bag will take it down to three or four items.

4. There are some people here with backpacks AND laptop bags.

And some people here with little more than a legal pad.

Hm...

15. 2 of them work great as saddle bags on my scooter - though normally I

use two net bags.

5. Get a helper monkey

[eyesroll]

9. I wonder if that would be considered a permitted service animal.

Edit: damn smiley chart.

6. Someone at my company has a briefcase on wheels...

Kinda weird looking, but it's less to carry.

7. A helper monkey would be cooler

[eyesroll]

8. I looked at rolling backpacks, but I think they'd be useless in the snow.

(Plus the ones I saw were either teeny-tiny, not good for laptops or cheap cheap cheap.

10. ...

11. That was low.

"Stacie, can you identify the controlling legal issue in State v. Hughes."

"I can find the answer in my backpack! Everyone, say backpack! Say backpack!"

13. Yum yum yum yum yum

Delicioso!

12. I have a Tumi that has wheels, but also has a handle that

you can carry it with in the event of inclement weather. Pricey, though. I think Costco has a knockoff for around $80.

14. Are there no lockers in your law school?

You should sue.
