Flashlight, toiletries, business cards, books, 18 ties, three jackets of various categories, shirts, shoes, shorts, ginch, socks, medications--condoms...travel guide, phrasebook, pocket-tranzilator, headphones, camera, camcorder, laptop my suit, two pair slacks, a couple movies, a whole bunch of s****y souveniers, a s***load of cash and my E ticket.
