If you’re a big fan of action drama TV then you’re probably no stranger to Jack Bauer and 24. For 8 seasons (coming back for a ninth now) Jack has been saving the country from every kind of bad guy you can imagine. Why hasn’t the president and washington figured it out yet that when Jack says or does something he’s right? It’s like those Dos Equis commercials and the most interesting man in the world; if Jack Bauer disagrees with you it is because you are wrong…PERIOD! But, I digress.

For 8 seasons now Jack has been carrying Homeland and CTU on his soldiers and keeping them from screwing up and he’s been doing it in style!

Jack Bauer defending the country with his “Messenger Bag Of Death” as I like to call it. Let’s face it, if you have to save the country with a MacGyver type wit and a Chuck Norris axe kick to the head or your nemesis; the least you can do is to do it with style!

So, with Jack and his messenger bag of death I have recently become addicted to messenger bags, I’m a messenger bag junky!  I mean come on! How cool can you really be!? Well my friends let me outline a few below so you can see just how bad my addiction has become.

1. CaseLogic - Canvas Bags

I mean these things are just awesome! I’m convinced that if Jack knew about this bag he’d be toting it everywhere and still have room in the pockets for hands of the injust and his PDA of doom! And the price is enough to make even Chuck Norris cure cancer, er I mean cry.

2. Jansport - Elefunkay!

Save the world and be Super at the same time! If ever Tom Welling from Smallville needed a matching accessory to his red jacket, it’s this bag! Let’s face it! Superman doesn’t have much in that spandex for carryin, what if he’s grounded in China without his passport and computer? That would be horrible! I mean the man of steel detained in a foreign country without a method of identification and access to bablefish!? PASHAW! This bag would work great and still work with his ensemble!  

3. Skinny Jeaners of the World UNITE!

If you dig the retro, and wear skinny jeans too, I don’t not a big fan that and I don’t have a butt to keep them on; you would probably LOVE these bags from Mobile Edge! Turn heads, make people take a second look so you can poke their eyes out as you save the world from fashionless misfits infesting our country today!

4. Chuck Norris - Though he doesn’t NEED anything, he WANTS this one.

Ok, so let’s face it, what does a man who doesnt do push ups but rather pushes the world down need? Answer: Nothing. But you gotta admit, this bag makes even the master of World Of Warcraft humor drool! I mean really! If yer overseas hidden in a third world country and trying to blend in as your enemy presses down on you from all sides, the bag with the lady’s face won’t work! But to have a bag that could hold your total gym! Now THAT’s a bag! This bag is rugged, trim, and sleek looking for that not-so-stick-out crowd!

Bottom line, if you dig 24 you dig messenger bags, if you dig messenger bags and you have one you LOVE, let me know! I’m looking for my next purchase already!

Remember, when saving the world out there: “With awesome bags comes great responsibility!”
