Contents of a Character's Wallet by nicolette oliphant

June 28th, 2006 12:06 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.

I carry a lot more crap around than I thought. After looking at all this stuff, I realized it kinda does say something about me: she loves a discount and Might party much.
The bag: Wallet, $6. 65 (not in wallet), old buss pas, orange sharpie, pen, pulltap, tampon, medicated hand cream, calgon turquois seas, list of books to read, some garbage, a recipt to 24 hour convience store @500 clement, Burts bees res-q-ointment and raspberry lip balm, Keys with bike lock key, GGFistness member card, SF giants key, key chain that says 'the tassle is worth the hassle' (very cheesy) and a fernet branca keychain, a package of bandaids and a poker chip.
the wallet: Rasputan discount car, Wells Fargo business card, pic of neice, pic of friends little sister, The Head Sjop discount card, BooBoo records CD buyers club card, Moms Body shop business card From Vaughn, SF public library card, Wells Fargo goldcard, Club BevMo card, dental insurance card, ID, health insurance card, Albertsons card, Wells Fargo credit card, clock in/out card for McCalls, Yellow cab card, Harrahs reward card, Planned Parenthood health discount card, Serramonte pets frequent buyers card, Costco card, SSC, Medicann perscription paper, and 2 cigar bands.
Well there are a few more things in there that say somthing. I like to read, I work, I dont drive, I care about my health, and i dont know what else. Id like to get some feedback.
anyway, things Id like to add: my zen mp3 player, camera, a pack of smokes, and more picture of people.
The first three thing wouldnt really change what somone would think if they went through my bag, but the pictures would show a person the people I love.
