Contents of a Character's Wallet by mean jeannine

June 12th, 2006 9:44 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: In Jack Finney's short story, "Contents of a Dead Man's Pocket", the character - clinging to the side of a building - imagines what the world will think of him if they only have the contents of his pockets to consider.

Empty your pockets, your wallet, your purse out onto a table- tally the contents and tell us what the world would think of you, if they had only those effects to consider. Then, decide upon one thing to add to the contents of your pockets, your wallet, or your purse, which will better enunciate the truth of your person to the world.

Dumped my purse out and here's what I found:

black leather coin purse from Italy containing $1.16 in change
red vinyl id holder containing $30 and MN drivers licensee
Student ID
Wedge Membership
YMCA Membership card
Minneapolis Public Library Card

1 international airmail stamp
2 fortunes from fortune cookies, they say:
"Reality is for people who lack imagination"

Judging from this it sounds like I shop and eat out a lot. I've traveled some, and i hope the poopy penguin shows I have a sense of humor.

Since there seems to be no proof of my unicycling, a unicycle keychain!

Where does one get a poopy penguin?

How does having the privilege of bleeding once a month make me dead to you?

The poopy penguin was a gift from several years back, I just recently re-found it when going through a drawer of stuff, and needed a keychain for spare keys. I used to have a poopy pig, but it's poop started oozing out, so I pulled it out and the pig now has a very large anus.
