This is an oldie but a goodie posted by Lee/AR a long time ago.
My NSA briefcase contains... Posted by Lee/AR of ? on 2/3/05 9:13am Msg #19302 8 each blue & black pens, a calculator, business cards. envelope slitter, couple binder & paper clips, magnifier sheet so people who forgot their glasses can read the docs, 1 plastic 2-compartment legal-size folder to hold docs & b's copy, a 12 compartment thingy with every 'extra' doc I might need--i.e. Loose acks, jurats, sig/name aff, a/k/a, etc., a plastic-sleeved sheet of paper w/every area UPS-FedEx Drop box location, 1/2 dozen sheets of notebook paper just in case b needs to make notes, State Notary Handbook (it is small) , little bitty stapler, a plastic-sleeved really good generic explanation of Docs & TIL, a hard-topped mouse pad (for 'notary-stamping' on rough surfaces), a prepaid phone card, a pair of footie socks (for muddy paths/white carpets/fussy b's), small flashlight, 3 desks (OK...just legal sized hard plastic things)...oh, yeah & my Journal & Stamp. Whole thing weighs 5 lbs--exclusive of docs. Ain't nothing I'm not prepared for...cause it's all happened and I've used every fool thing in it at some signing or another... BTW, you should see the look on people's faces when they realize that they don't have a clean, smooth, flat surface in their house & I pull the 'desks' out of my briefcase!
I started carrying legal size 'desks' and the hard topped mouse pad for stamping after I saw this post and I've used them about a hundred times.
I also carry hand sanitizer and mace!
