1. Glasses/sunglasses
2. 70
3. Groceries
4. Colors of the rainbow
5. Bread
6. First letter of each line of song lyrics
7. The dog ate it
8. Smell
9. Under the doormat
10. Phone numbers

Number four will be fascinating. Will it be ROY G. BIV for the rainbow, or “Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly” for the color bands on a resistor, or perhaps “Every Good Boy Does Fine” for the lines on a musical staff? Do they still teach “HOMES” for the Great Lakes in school? How many are there that I’ve never heard of? I await anxiously.

Except mine cause I went with doormat thinkin’ it’d be the popular answer. Actually my spare key is hidden in a fake rock. However, it’s in a fake rock garden so it’d take a while to find it. 😛

Hehe. I had that answer, then changed it because I figured, I’d go with a realistic, tech-savvy answer. Nah, simple is always best.

ETA: **Sigmagirl** , yes, there is love for the fake rock!
