I know it was my turn to take over this thread! Thanks for picking up my slack!
I've recently started a new FT job--which I hate incidently, but that's for another thread-- and don't have time right now to keep checking the boards. Unless, of course I might want to get fired by getting caught on the boards instead of doing my job, like now! 
Anyhow, if I ever get situated at this stinking job, the next one is on me! Okay?
For my guess, dropping them in the sink while talking and doing dishes?

WOOHOO! Way to go Rachel!
Cara.. I had a couple websites but deleted them when we weren't playing the game. Took me forever to find another site, but finally found it. You can usually find them on radio stations' webpages.

Well, if you can keep a secret...
We really do have all this info in our heads, but the last time we disclosed that bit of information, some FBI agents came and took us to a secret disclosed location. My memory is fuzzy on what happened later, but let's just say it left us wishing it was a colonoscopy. 
So that's why we keep our super smart brains a secret.. now if you'll excuse me, I need to go find a good hiding place.
