Yeah, except for a Bible and a good pair of glasses, there really isn't anything I own that I couldn't bear to lose. Now, of course, if a hurricane or an earthquake got rid of EVERYTHING, that would be really bad. But if a few things, including expensive things like this computer, go belly up all of a sudden, it's not a super big deal to go without for a while.
