"For extra credit use Uncle Phil's Law of Selective Gravitation to explain the peculiar behavior of buttered toast when accidentally dropped in the kitchen." -Uncle Phil

I have observed this for years, and also the law that a cat always lands on it's feet. I still want to know if you spread the cat's back with butter, which way will it land? Lin won't let me use her cats for the experiment, so I may never know.

I always know where at least one flat pick is, as it is always in the strings of my Martin D15, which is fine if that is the instrument I grab on the way out the door. Unfortunately I don't know exactly where the other 80-90 are, as I put them in a bag to make sure they didn't get lost. I'm 99% sure they are in the bag where I left them, but I forgot where I put the bag, so in reality I have one. Good thing I play mostly banjo with no picks.

As Bobert and others have stated above though, I do know exactly where every fingerpick is that I own. They are rather expensive, and I have more time invested in the shaping. Maybe that is the key. If you make your own, maybe you won't lose them.
