David, first of all, congrats on reaching that age soon.

So, I feel for you. I've put things down in the shop and within minutes, I mean, literally minutes, can't find them and don't remember what I did with them. Geez, it sucks getting old and I've still got 9 years before I catch up to you.

Now, about those wrenches. I attach the two wrenches to the Porter Cable's electrical cord on the router with twist ties - they're always there when I need them. For my Bosch, which usually sits in a router table, I've got a small box in the table that holds those wrenches, the second collet, the key for above-table adjustment, etc. I do the same for other tools that require hex wrenches - for those, I put them in a small baggie and tie that to the cord - try it, you'll like it.

Geez, Theo - you carry a small pocket knife in your shirt pocket, a pocket knife in your pants pocket, spare set of car keys in your pants right pocket, two more sets of car keys in your vest pocket, and magazines, flashlight, camera and a cell phone and a magnifying glass, and mail.

Sounds like you're going on a field trip. The only thing you're missing is a sandwich and a map.

"The magazines are loaded"

Oh, THOSE magazines - I thought they were the type you take to the "library" when you need some alone time!!!!

The only thing I carry in my front pants pocket, when I'm out, is my wallet. If some pick pocket is trying to take it, I'll damn well know their hand is in there

I only need one book and I can hide my own Easter egg.

Easter Sunday and April Fools Day fell on the same day this year - you must have had a heck of a time trying to find those Easter eggs that weren't actually hidden.
