For the Road Warrior... - a list by hwilson

About this list:

Traveling on business is a skill developed through time, perseverance, and learning how and when to take shortcuts that can keep you sane. This list is comprised of some of the little tricks that I've learned over the years. I hope I can save you a little stress, keep a few lines off your face, and the gray hairs from finding their way on your head. Stow your tray table, bring your seat back to its upright and locked position - and enjoy your travels!

Qualifications:

You kidding? I have more flight miles than I can remember!

Apple - Time Capsule

First to recommend

17 people recommended this item

Description

Apple's Time Machine is a very cool addition to the Mac OS, but the problem has always been the requirement of using an external hard drive. Now, Apple has introduced Time Capsule, a wireless external hard drive for use with Time Machine. This company is awesome! Apple really solves problems instead of creating them! Apple rocks! Apple's Time Capsule is a welcome addition to my digital life.

Dopp "General" Dopp Kit

First to recommend

Description

Let's face it -- if you ever have to get on a plane as a part of your job, are male, and over the age of 25, then you should have a Dopp Kit. Dopp kits are the single best way to stash all of your toiletries and other personal stuff, so they don't fly, spill, or leak all over your other stuff when you're traveling. A good one is made of leather and will be with you when they put you in the ground. But, you can get a starter version made of nylon from places like Target or a local drugstore. Make you mom proud... get your stuff together.

Tweezerman - Ingrown Hair Splintertweeze

First to recommend

Description

Ingrown hairs... Now, there's a subject that doesn't come up much in casual conversation. But, like most guys, I get them from time to time and they are literally and figuratively a pain in the neck.

The Tweezerman Ingrown Hair Splintertweeze is by far THE BEST tweezer that I've ever owned and I tried them all. In fact, I have three of them. One for home, traveling, and in my work bag.

Philips Sonicare Elite 9650 Power Toothbrush Custom Care System

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

My dentist recommended that I get a Philips Sonicare toothbrush after a stern tongue lashing about the ills of gums care, flossing, and gingivitis. I'm not sure why I got the "scared straight" talk because I brush after every meal and floss before bed (are you reading this mom?)

Anyway, Costco has a special version of the Philips Sonicare tooth brush that includes two motors and three brush heads. It's perfect for traveling or taking one to the office (or anywhere else you may need to stash a dopp kit. :-)

Logitech V320 Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks

First to recommend

Description

The Logitech V320 Cordless Optical Mouse is perfect for keeping your sanity when you're on the road and trying to be productive with your laptop. The battery seems to last forever and it's so much better than trying to use the touch/scroll pad on most laptops. Once you get one of these babies, you'll wonder how you ever lived without one.
