Laptop? Check.

Blackberry? Right here.

Sensible shoes? Oh yeah.

Glasses? Camera? Flashdrive? Check. Check, Check.

Cords, cords and more cords? Got 'em by the bagful.

Press pass? Pad? Pen? Yup.

Chapstick? Healthy snack? You bet.

Change of underwear? Absolutely. (You didn't think I was going to show THAT did you?)

Looks like I'm ready for Denver. But is Denver ready for me?

You forgot a gas mask!

That may come in handy if Recreate '68 and others get out of hand in Denver. You might want to invest in something to protect yourself from gas/pepper spray just in case.

I'm looking forward to your report Kerry. I'm betting it won't be the typical Democratic Party Political Endorsement from the Virginian Pilot Editorial Staff.

It's not bad... But it's incomplete for this assignment... You Forgot Your Kneepads!

After all... It is the customary protocol for mere mortals, such as yourself, to genuflect when in the presence of those who have been annointed as gods, saints & royalty!!

Sheesh... Get with the program Kerry! Your'e a good Irish Catholic... You should know the drill by heart!!

I hope the management will send someone as equally trivial to the Republican Convention.

Sending an opinion columnist to a political convention is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard of.

Perhaps the esteemed columnist's ties to the VB court system and it's politics could be the only reason this may have happened?

Well..... you be the "judge" of that...... LOL!!

If it were only a one way plane ticket.

Maybe there's a "Glamour Shot" reunion event in the same town, where those who had have their appearance altered by Glamour Shots can get together at the same time? There has to be another reason she was selected.
