Kasia, January 13, 2010 2:25:00 PM EST: Actually, Cougar Town is a pretty funny show.
Adam, January 13, 2010 5:31:00 PM EST: Never watched it- not a Courtney Cox-Arquette fan. She interrupted a Bruce Springsteen concert over 20 years ago. A career ensued. Blech.
Kasia, January 14, 2010 2:44:00 PM EST: I think she was paid to interrupt that concert for music video purposes? Anyway, I think she's really good in it.
Kasia, January 14, 2010 2:45:00 PM EST: Cougar Town, not the video for "Dancin' In The Dark".

What's In Your Jack Sack?

Actual readers tell us what they carry in their Jack Sack:

I take this bag with me just about everywhere I go. When I’m traveling in the city, it just has my laptop loaded with Linux (a version I customized to look like and operate like the one on the show), a battery adapter, and headphones. When I take it camping, it’s a Jackpack Bauer (and Chloe!) would be proud of! It has: my laptop, spare battery, 3G wireless access card, signal booster, 2 backup batteries, GPS, utility key (looks like a key but unfolds to reveal a knife, screwdriver, file, pen, and flashlight), flash drives, external hard drives, monocular range finder/scope, fishing line, non perishable food stuffs, 6 throwing knives, an Airsoft S&W M5906, and attachments (scope, bipod, and shell casings) for my Super 9x Rifle. I used to think it was impossible to hold as many things Jack Bauer did in season 4, but as you can see it most certainly is!
-Lawrence, New York, NY

I fancy myself as an amateur theologian. At any given time, I will have a Bible, Greek New Testament, notebooks, files, and several books. In addition, I have my iPod, a few small firestarter blocks, matches, and a compass. On the weekends, it may contain my Sig Sauer P229 along with several clips and extra ammo for a trip to the range. Contents varies but these items are pretty standard.
-Greg Smith

"Hey whoever checks the e-mail! Just stumbled onto your site today looking for updates to the new season. I live in Moncton, New Brunswick, (Canada) about 3-5 hours from where Mr. Sutherland was born, and am a huge fan. My Jack Sack contains everything an aspiring CTU computer geek would need, including my Laptop, flashdrives, painkillers, antacids, cough drops (winter gets pretty nuts out here), anti-perspirant, my cell phone, a switchblade (Jack can't be everywhere... or can he?), $40, a bic lighter, and two Red Bull. The Red Bull is for an obvious reason, and the antacids are for the Red Bull. Thanks!"
-Pierre Lirette, From Up North, eh!

"I have at all times: A pen, a notebook, a Mini-maglite, a 'Leatherman'-knife type thing, Cash/Debit card/checkbook, Gum, Kleenex (it's not quite a towel, but in a pinch...don't panic), Hair Ties (yes I usually have more then 1), A Tampon (a biker asked for one in a bar once, I think it was for a leak on his bike, I just happened to have one and now keep one in just in case)."
-Willow from Saffran

"What I have in my WendySack (aka pink Chanel purse)... 1. Pink Gel Pen - incase I have to (a) write down the license plate of a terrorist or (b) poke the terrorist in they eye. 2. Key to my Benz - incase I have to run-over the terrorist myself. 3. Pink Motorola Razr - so I can call Jack Bauer to take care of the rest. 4. Chanel Lip Gloss - so I can kiss the terrorist goodbuy after Jack gets a hold of him. 5. Pink Wallet w/Credit Cards - so I can do some shopping afterward =). "
- Wendy, Los Angeles, CA

"I work at a zoo, so my jacksack holds all the treats and toys I need to entertain/fend off my animals. To be honest, the sack has seen better days -- too many forgotten bananas, muddy squeaky toys, and one memorable encounter with a libidinous gazelle. Love your site!"
-Amberlynn San Diego, CA

"My hubby got one for his b-day. Here's what he's recently had in it: flourescent stocking cap, ear plugs, stick-on targets, Glock, Springfield 1911, 825 rounds ammo, 600 mL water, cell phone, Jack Daniels flavored praline pecans (from Cost Plus)"
-Sally Wilson, Somewhere in America

"First off, I never leave home without my handy-dandy... tool. I don't know what else to call it - it's just this knife thing with pliers and a corkscrew and different kinds of screwdrivers and files and saws and basically anything you would need to build a small hut should you be forced to survive on an uninhabited island for, oh, say four days. Then I have my can of mase (to keep away all of the crackheads I have to deal with while walking to class), a civil war canon firing pin (I deemed it 'lucky' and just won't take it out of my bag), a book entitled "Waorani: The Culture of War" for my anthropology class, a binder and a fountain pen. I also have a sketchbook, digital voice recorder (for when I fall asleep in class and can't pay attention to the lecture anymore), a smushed Little Debbie fudge round in one of the front pockets (for an emergency snack), a Nalgene water bottle (with a crack - yes, it can be done - in the top around the mouth of the bottle), a toothbrush and travel size toothpaste, a bottle of Nyquil, a bottle of Tylenol PM, a bottle of Excederin Migraine, half-good AAA batteries for the MP3 player, flip flops, extra hair ties and, last but not least, a sample packet of fish food that I haven't gotten around to taking out yet."
-Beth D, Louisville, KY

"I'm a newspaper crime reporter and go a lot of funky, somewhat dangerous places. In my bag, I carry two notebooks, numerous pens, two spare Nikon camera batteries, a flash attachment and batteries for same, Surefire 6-P flashlight with a striking bezel on it. Bottle of drinking water, 2-4 power bars, Cold Steel X2 Voyager folding knife, checkbook and 2-3 extra loaded magazines for the Glock 26 9mm handgun I legally carry everywhere but the courthouse, schools and post office."
-LEK, West Virginia
