I see you live at Vicksburg, man I saw a bad 18 wheeler wreck there a few days on the interstate, it was about 2 in the morning and happened just a little in front of me, I was surprised that the driver didnt get hurt bad, but he got out and was walking around.I was able to turn my car around and go back down the entrance ramp. pretty sure it took several hours to get that mess cleaned up.

I don't know what it is about that stretch of I-20. There are no sharp turns or big hills east of town and traffic is never bad, but it seems like somebody gets killed over there twice a month or so. Just weird. And then there are the bridge wrecks, which can screw up traffic badly (72 mile detour to Natchez or 84 to Greenville) for half a day. Those seem to be happening with more frequency lately.

I think that was just west of exit 4, pretty sure the driver fell asleep.
Was on the westbound side, there is a deep ditch there, with a rock wall rising from it. he ran off in that ditch and tilted over against the rock wall.
He was in a refer truck, and it peeled th top off of the trailer like a can. He came back out on the road and turned the truck up on its side.
Frame was twisted up like it was a coat hanger. Said he had 20 tons of frozen chickens.I hope it doesn't cause a shortage or price increase at Bojangles.

I still use the same leather courrier's bag I bought in Italy over forty years ago. I guess you would call it a satchel or a mailbag.
I had an Uncle who was a postal carrier in Dallas 20s-50s who left me his leather bag. I've seen one or two similar to it on eBay for a lot of money ... get one if you can find one.

Both. Depends on the occasion.

I usually carry this
I also use a rolling mobile office when I have a large sales presentation.
And I occasionally use a backpack, but I never two-strap because two-strapping is gay.

carried a computer bag/case for years until I started having back problems. I travel a lot (a lot) and a backpack is just easier.
