Update: What to do with Sears gift cards..I got lucky and snagged a Craftsman 18v cordless drill/light, as well as $130 in Sears gift cards. I had 10 bucks left over from Christmas, so I have $140 total...and I'm willing to spend a bit more to get something decent.

I want an air compressor -- considering this now. Any tips? I don't really know anything about compressors, but I'd like to buy one that will last me for a long, long time (ie after I buy a house, it'll be in my garage practically forever). It's on sale ($30 off..so $299.95) until the 22nd.

I was just asked if I wanted to keep the drill or exchange it for something else/better...are there any horror stories about the 18v Craftsman? It looks like it'll be just fine for me..I'm not a contractor or anything.

As far as other Sears stuff goes -- I have a small-ish socket set already, as well as a 151pc 'mechanic's set' -- basically everything I need to do anything on my car that I'll have to (or be able to) do.

Any tips/ideas/input? :)

Finally. :p


Then again, I don't drink...but I'll probably try something tonight -- any suggestions?

Edit: Perhaps 'I don't drink' is a little restrictive -- I haven't drank 'yet'..never really felt the pull of the underage drinking thing. It's legal now, so I'm alright :p

Drink. Not to much, but don't skimp.
If only for tonight... you only live once.

Much fun. Promise.

Go buy a case of beer. You owe it to your driver's license, for having to endure your stinky ass for this long.

Happy Birthday dude!

I got so trashed on my 21st. Even though legal age here is 19. :) Literally though, I think that is the only night ever that I was so wasted that I was stumbling through the bar knocking drinks over & spilling. So attractive!

Go to the peelers! Do some body shots.

edit: I was the 1st one to say Happy Birthday. :p

Make sure you eat a large well balanced meal a couple of hours before you start drinking. Also it helps to drink a glass of water or two periodically while you are drinking.

I recommend that you stick with drinking beer.

What is the point of drinking except getting drunk. You spend your money, get in an accident. what then?
Drinking with me was never coool. It's something people do to impress their peers/friends.:roll::confused:
