That bag has been to more countries than most people and even survived the war in Iraq. When I left my newspaper job it seemed like the end of an era so I figured I'd treat myself to a new one. I gave my old one to one of our interns. It was ugly and the strap was fairly badly worn, but I figure it still had another five or ten years worth of life in it.
