Marsha: Almost. Let’s see, I have Wall chargers for my cell phone and other Devices, extra Memory cards for my camera, and Noise-canceling headphones for the airplane.

Justin: Oh, yeah, I forgot to pack my headphones. I’d better Dig them out right now.

Marsha: I’ve also packed Portable batteries for our devices in case we Run out of power En route. I’ve also brought a Power strip to use in our hotel room.

Justin: Why?

Marsha: Hotel rooms never have enough Outlets.

Justin: That’s true. I hadn’t thought of that. Maybe I should bring one, too. Between the two of us, we have a lot of Gadgets to plug in.

Marsha: And I’m bringing some Cables in case we want To hook up our devices to the TV.

Justin: Don’t you think that’s Overkill?

Marsha: Not at all. How else will we entertain ourselves for an entire week?
