Where I.T. all began, Silicon Valley

If you had to pack all your belongings into a pickup truck, what would you take?  To most people this is a hypothetical question that is fun to talk about over a drink.  To others (like myself), this is a reality that will come to fruition tomorrow.  I'm off to move cross country from Florida to California.  I only know 2 people in California on a personal basis, but they love it there.  My exploratory nature requires me to move from time to time and luckily the IT field allows for that sort of behavior.  I chose the San Francisco bay area because, well that's the only place I've visited in California. (technically I've been to places from santa cruz to sacramento)
I did pick up one of those fancy new iPhone 4's since this will be the first job in a long time that won't be issuing me a cell.. one of these days I'll work at a place that issues cool stuff like iphones instead of blackberries.. but no time soon I imagine.  I'll be flying out, but my truck will arrive with the culmination of my life's belongings a couple of weeks later.
