What tools do you carry around?

So I am getting ready to go to Sears and restock the tool box that was stolen out of my jeep and was wondering what tools do you carry around with you? I usually have screwdrivers(including one huge flathead), socket set, combination wrenches, and a hammer. Besides tools, I have duct tape, hose repair, and bailing wire. What do you carry?

I'd add a clean rag, a length of wire and a flashlight. Pocket knife has come in handy too.

Ha ha ha. Spiderdan, you must have been a Boy Scout, because you clearly still follow their motto "always be prepared. "

Ok, I've added all of these and I went with Balvenie 21 instead of Crown Royal.

I keep my whisky wrapped in foam and secured in a pelican case.

My kid brother dropped a fifth of 50 year old Royal Salute in the Spode Bone China bottle on my Terrazzo floor. The best price I have seen recently was around $580 discounted on sale from $850. You will shed a few tears when that happens. This bottle had the same birth date as my wife and was only brought out for anniversaries only for closest family. I thought the kid was going to pass out when it slipped though his fingers.

Crown Royal Canadian Rye will do fine for general sipping and in an emergency medicinal purposes.
