Sometimes, we just need to remember what the rules of life really are: You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
Those two inventions are no doubt great contributions to mankind. However, you also have to consider the "sheet rock screw" as another great inovation. These great screws will eventually replace hammers - most likely more of these screws are sold for wood working projects rather than their original intent to hang sheet rock. Give me some sheet rock screws, a power drill and a few boards and I can entertain myself all day. Make a mistake, reverse the drill, remove the screw and start over. No more bent over nails. I have boards in my "dunnage pile" that has as many as 43 holes in them from mistakes that I have made. However, to penetrate the wood easier, I have learned that if you spray the screw with WD40, it will screw in easier. If the boards that are are trying to mate are still loose after inserting a half dozen screws, bind them together with duct tape. Duct tape is also useful to use as a field bandage in the event you cut your finger with the power saw.

If you feel the incessant urge,
and your tongue is sharp and quick,
leave a worthless thought for me
whether cool, or fun, or sick.
