That's not a Man Purse, is it?

Conversation this morning with my boss as he walked down the stairs of our office struttin' his "Man Purse":




Me: "You've got to be kidding me.................Is that a Man Purse?"


Boss: "No, it's a satchel.......Indian Jones has one...."


(.....ok, so he DIDN'T really say THAT - but I thought it would be funny if he had.....so I figured I'd add it to the conversation!)


Boss: "No, it's a European Satchel. I got it while vacationing in Australia."


Me: "What the freak do you carry in that thing anyway? You're a man......what could you possibly have to carry around with you.......let's see...........your wallet, wet ones maybe......... an eyeglass cleaner kit........." (..........hmmmmm......)


Boss: (as he proceeds to empty it on my desk) "Well, I've got my checkbook, my camera, my lotion........."

Me: "Lotion?...............what the H_LL do you need lotion for? (..........did I say that out loud?..............OMLord...........please don't answer that..........)

Boss: "I need hand cream after I work with the dry wall all day long in my little house."

...........(me staring at him with this stupid look on my face)............hmmmmm........................whatever...............


Boss: "In Australia, they call them European Satchels."


Me: "I don't care what they call them in Europe or Australia - in the States, they call them Man Purses!"


"You don't have a 'Fanny Pack' do you?"

Boss: "NO - I don't have a Fanny Pack!"


Me: "Good thing............cause' I wouldn't wanna start having to make fun of ya, or anything!"
