Not that I'd ever do that.
Oh no. Never.
Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I can't tell you how often I've wished I had a rubber mallet. Useful things, they are. Or seem to be when you don't have one, anyway.
I've only used them for pounding on hubcaps. A fist works just as well, but hurts more.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I didn't get wrenches until LONG after I got a hammer. The second most important useful tool in my life? Needle-nose pliers. Handy for bras and jewelry. My life does not involve a lot of construction.

If I only had a brain...
Rubber mallets are the best. My husband keeps one in the kitchen.
It was really funny when we had carpet installed. Our son came pounding downstairs and said, "Hey! The guy is using a MEAT TENDERIZER to put the carpet in!"

I'm trying to think how needle nosed pliers are handy for bras and blanking.
Wait, to uncrimp the damned wee hooky things?

Hmm. I think of the toolbox as the hubster's even though we've been married 25 years. Sick.
Tools I can't imagine being without:
- Screwdrivers, both regular and Phillips
- Vise-Grips
- Hammer
- Rubber mallet
- Needle-nose pliers

Got it in one. Also useful to re-crimp.

Socket wrenches are my favorite tools. Especially when working in tight places, like cars.

C-Clamps!
I don't have any. But I've wanted them. My dad about had a stroke at christmas at my brother's when we were putting together the diningroom table and chairs. I need a c-clamp. What do you MEAN you don't have ANY C-clamps! You MUST have C-clamps!
What's really amusing is my brother has about every other tool known to man and a few not, what with all the work he does on his car. But no c-clamps.
