No you were right...someone could easily come in 1 hour before close and copy every single answer and ultimately get the most points.

This contest is based solely on the fact of how weird I am...best of luck to all. And there have been quite a few correct guesses...but not on the # of items

Well, I knew my idea was too easy. As soon as I saw the post I thought I'd just wait until the very end & do the copy thing. Since then I've been thinking that's not really fair, so I guess I have been saved from a moral dilemma. Anyway, here's my guess:
1 Marshall Island Coin
stapler
2 pens
4 pencils
1 crayon
MP3 player
2 guitar picks
58 foreign coins
6 silver quarters
2 silver halves
3 rolls wheat cents
coffee mug
mouse pad
digital camera
calculator
note pad
CD ROM
flash memory stick
music book
Red Book
