Sentence correction

Hi,
are these sentences correct?

1) I got a gift coupon for jumping off the plane for my birthday but I chickened out and kindly returned it to the sender. I didn´t have the balls to do it.

2) Jones clutched his fist and made a sudden move to pretend to punch him,but he scared the pants off him anyway.

3) As a child,I used to hang on every word when my grandma told me fairy tales.

4) I got so wasted that my buddy let me crash in his apartment.

5) I don´t know whether we will be/are watching ABC or NBC tonight,but we definitely aren´t going to watch Lost,because the plot of it has let me down.

Thank you in advance!

  • I didn´t have the ***** to do it.
  • 2) Jones clenched clutched his fist and made a sudden move to pretend to punch him, but he scared the pants off him anyway.
  • It sounds obvious that the person would be scared, so I see no need to say 'but' or 'anyway'.
