Lisa I like your idea of starting a new game thread.(WHAT IS THIS?) This is fun! BUT DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GEEEEEEEEEEEE Lisa, I didn't get to see the pic of the great nip toys. Or Kathys replies. Now I'm really bummed! It's my thread and you can post what ever your little ol heart desires!!

Beer can tab openers for the finger impaired

My 6yo daughter has just seen the pic and here is what she says it is...

dinner things that you eat with. Some things are knives, some things are spoons, and some things are dinner hooks. A dinner hook is what you put food on, like meat and fruit and vegetables. The holes are to let the juice of Beans and stuff come out. Like soak juice and stuff like that. And those are decorations for the knives. That's all I can tell.

Sounds great to me?

Any word yet from the radio station???? I am dyin' over here!!

[the best me 6]

I'm going with table cloth holders, although the table would have to be mighty thin...even a standard card table wouldn't work.

OR, Stien markers. You know, the big German metal beer stiens? Is that how you spell that? STIEN? Anyhow, they don't seem very safe for use on glassware, but metal mugs, maybe. ???

How about a website for antiques, like Antiques Roadshow, or that new show, What's in the Attic? or something? Any ideas for leads as to who to ask?

My mom is going to try the radio station in the morning for me. Maybe morning hours are better. She can talk to the DJ who holds the contest!!

I initially thought that they were "pot hangers." And no, no roach clips involved.

I think they are clips for a table cloth for a pic nic table.

oh no Kelly, those things can't be money clips... you would stab yourself the first time you moved.

You asked for it! I think they're Upstairs Downstairs Arousers from the Renaissance period. We've come a long way, so here's what they look like today. And no, I don't have them in MY nightstand!

[DeLarla 22]

Or bookmarkers.

[vinesqueen 2]

Part of the problem is that we don't have any frame of reference. We don't know the size of these things.

[the best me 6]

She said they were 2 1/2 inches long, but a penny or other coin on the table in the pic would really help, I agree! Aren't I getting picky and testy in my zest to know the answer?!!

[Marimaru 7]

I have to go with the idea that they are supposed to go on the side of your glass to mark who's glass is who's. I just can't think of anything else.

Did your mom get to the station??

[vinesqueen 2]

Doh! if they are two inches long, which is much, much smaller than I thought, I'd have to change my guess to bookmark.

That or decorative facial piercing jewlery

[coyotegirl 3]

Hey Lisa, they are kind of cute! Looks like I could hang them from my belt loops as a decoration! Just unclip them when needed!!!

No no word yet from radio station or mom! I have e-mailed EVERYONE in my address book and still no answer!

Soooo, no news as to what they are??? They look like bookmarkers, but stainless steel sounds a little heavy. Hmmmm...
