This is tough, I used 4 different hammers this week. 16oz claw 
hammer, 3# deadblow, 5# hammer, and small ballpeen. I used a standard 
spade, a flat shovel and one of those small garden hand shovels and a 
broom. Oh ya, I used a flashlight the other day
In the FWIW department I usually use 2 pairs of pants each week 
(dirty stuff and town), at least one tee shirt, underwear and sox 
everyday. I keep my pants up with a belt. I shave, deal with the 
teeth, brush my hair and all that.

18 items listed here and I'm at a computer right now.

Life down to 100 items? Doesn't sound like a fun game to me.
