Ah Bebelina, what is in your pockets is up to you to describe.
Reading the post brought that out of memory. Incase you are not familar with Red Skelton, he was a "skit player" with his own tv show in the 50's, during the days of black and white tv. A comic if you will. He had several characters that he used in the show and would dress the part of his character to provide the audience with a clue as to who he was portraying.
Censors were ever vigulant and when he gave this off the cuff answer they pulled him off the air for a short period of time.

Like anyone's surprised?
Well ...,
1/2 pack American Spirit cigarettes (full flavor, blue label)
2 Bic "childproof" lighters (1 white, 1 blue)
1 set house keys
1 wallet ($63.00 inside)
1 pair cheap sunglasses
1 bus pass
2 card keys from work
1 glass pipe
1.5 grams marijuana (Canadian)
Like anyone's really surpised at those last couple ...?
In fact, since I'm listening to Peter Gabriel's Down the Dolce Vita at this very moment, I think I'm going to kick back with some of that dolce vita right now and reflect on the contents of my pockets ....

-car key, house key, and classroom key
-credit card (damnit, I need to make myself put it in my purse...one of these days it'll fall out!)
-a yellow customer copy of a credit card sales slip
-Blistex
-tiny Chilean coin purse with American coins and one huge Mexican peso worth $2 American dollars)
-2 empty bubble-gum wrappers (had a craving)
-and a "secret" compartment where lint can find refuge
Gee, I don't think McGyver (or however you spell it) could do much with what I've got in my pockets, but then again, I'm not McGyver.

hmmm,
I have a rocket in my pocket...
or perhaps I'm just pleased to see you

or perhaps I'm just pleased to see you
Lets see now:
4 tonnes of shrapnel.... otherwise formally known as the contents of a change kiosk
A bunch of keys some for locking mechanisms I use and some for those that I no longer have.
An empty wallet (Never keep your notes in a wallet)
A bottle opener from the days of wondering around looking for a bottle opener.
A comb to try and tame my hair when I have to face the general population.
Sometimes a trusty penknife, for unscrewing screws when doing complex operations of my very dead Pentium III 500 or when I get caught out in the world and need something that can be used as a screwdriver, or wirecutter etc.
Last but not least my hands on cold nights when I'm walking in the open.
Anything else that might get mentioned, doesn't actually sit within the pockets
