Vanishing picks...Where do they go??

Maybe they're in the same place that lost sock ends up, or where you lost your keys, or maybe where you can't find your wallet! I've found in life that it's always in the last place you look, funny how that happens, if we could just look there first!

I think there's a pick fairy who snags them when your sleeping I lose them and buy new ones and all of a sudden they all turn up right where I left them (cue music to outer limits) a pulsating tone from a theramin

Hey Rebel, Haven't seen you around that much lately... Did you get a new guit? (your avatar)

On losing things mysteriously, here's an odd story.  A friend of mine was a Navy nuclear engine chief for a vessel that was going into drydock for a refit.  Rather than reassign him and make him move his wife, he volunteered to stay with the ship and help strip her down.  He said that after everything was offloaded, all the furniture, carpet, and comforts of any kind were gone and the whole ship was swept out, they started removing bulkheads.  The first place he was assigned was the recreation room.  As they started to remove bulkheads that were bolted or riveted into place, they found 72 ping pong balls.  Now, can anyone explain how a ping-pong ball got behind a screwed on bulkhead?  They understood when they found contraband, because someone went through the effort to hide it, but ping pong balls?

Hey pix I think you might have some sorta pick portal in your house, and somehow they travel through the pick portal and end up at my house. I never have a problem finding picks. Even if I don't need one at the moment I'll find one. Actually I have two stepdaughters 22, and 16, both with guitar playing boyfriends. Sometimes they jam out here and leave their picks here. Which is great for me, since now I have a little ziploc bag with a variety of picks and don't need to spend money on picks. I now have picks varying from aliens to pot leafs to the dark prince of hell, even glow in the dark picks.

Hey Pix I'll tell you where they go SAME PLACE AS THE BLOODY PENCILS FROM MY WORKSHOP

                      I buy boxes of them and when you need one ....Gone!!!

I could have one in my hand and not find it!!!

In my shop class When you walk in with a pencil..It never comes out

It just disappears like my picks!...except they never reappear.

I'm sure if I could pick up my clothes washer or dryer, turn them upside down and shake the snot out of them like I do my guitar I find a whole &*#% load. They might be a bit warped but at least I could sleep at night with out wondering.

Over last weekend I was out back having a cold one ,watching the fire and picking a little. I decided the fire needed more wood. Set my guitar down with the neck leaned nicely against the bench. Tend the fire and sit back down???  NO PICK!!! I looked all over the bench? GONE. So, I go in the house, get a fresh one. and another pick while I'm there. Sit back down on the bench , pick up the the guitar and as the shadow from the guitar neck leaves the bench, yup right where I put it, next to a fresh one.  Which only goes to prove, when you can't find your pick---- Get another beer

the question : wheere do they go?

the answer: they dont go anywhere.

the reason: you only think they have vanished. Just because you cant see them doesnt mean they have vanished, they are just in hiding
