High-profile travelers don't leave home without ...

When leaving home for a long trip, what one thing must you take with you? USA TODAY's Kitty Bean Yancey put that question to a half-dozen high-profile travelers. The personal essentials they always tote:

"A 3-by-5 Moleskine notebook/diary, the same brand that Hemingway and Picasso used. I always get the black one. On trips, I'm constantly taking notes, sketching. If I meet somebody, I write down their name and address or I slip in business cards and magazine clippings. It has an elastic band that goes around it to hold it together. It's a record of my life, and you can't replicate that with electronics."

—Phil Keoghan, host of TV's The Amazing Race, who logged more than 400,000 miles last year

Don't know if it matters or if you care, but that picture isn't of Phil Keoghan. Here's his bio: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race7/phils_travels/bio/ which includes a pic.
Great site...
