Wait til you get to be 78. You'll forget 10x as much.
I'm 59 and have you beat already! I forgot my cell phone this morning!

But again, as I said earlier, there are few things that make you feel better than desperately needing a rare tool - and remembering that you have one!
And nothing worse than looking for that critter for 2 hours. NOT finding it, ordering another...
Right about the time it's delivered, you find the first one! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
I have multiples of more than I'd prefer...

5-6 of my friends have un-fettered access to my tool boxes.
If I catch ANYONE putting tools BACK into the boxes I KILL!!!
"Just pile them in front" is what I require.
I've replaced due to my friends putting them back up in the wrong place.
That will REALLY piss you off!

Keeping my eye out for a 6' pipe wrench now.....

Wow, I've never seen a 6-foot-long pipe wrench!
Just kidding, I get the designator wrong a bunch as well.
I'm hunting a baby PW now also.
Thread was worth it!

I HATE buying new tools...

I have to find a spot for them in my boxes, I have many!

Then I FORGET where I put that little bitch and spend way too much time looking for it.

Now, when I see a tool that has value to me (like a tiny little pipe wrench) I just have to buy it...

Ok - you got me.

Now I search for 4" pipe wrench. Gotta have it.

Picked this one up somewhere. Not 4" looks like a 6"

Still pretty cute.
