Your garage confuses me on guessing your age.
Its either very clean and organized or its sparse.
Clean and organized = age 55
Sparse = age 25

Hehe..

See, I see the title "What's my Age again", and all I can think of is Blink182 (for those who are of the older generations and don't know, Blink182 has a song with that same title).

My guess is probably 23, 24.

Need a few more hints. Who's footing the bill?

I'll say 23.

(Maybe even younger. I did't see any beer cans lying around)
