Egg Drop Competition! HELP ME! DUE MONDAY!?

I need an idea for the egg drop competition. These are the rules. The vehicle can't have a mass more than 100 grams. The vehicle must fit in a shoe box. The materials are self-provided, so try to be as least costly as possible. No parts of the vehicle can fall during the drop or impact. Any type of common adhesives can be used. The drop is 15 feet high. A raw egg must be able to be easily inserted and removed from the vehicle. The egg must survive the fall. THE NEXT PART IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART! PLEASE READ! The vehicle must have the SLOWEST drop as possible. If there is a tie, the LIGHTEST mass wins. So, I need a vehicle that is the LIGHTEST as possible and can drop the SLOWEST as possible without breaking the egg. PLEASE HELP ME! IT IS DUE MONDAY 11/26.07! THANK YOU!

My best suggestion is to suspend the egg, and pad the inside walls of the box with as soft a material as you can find. It's been a long time since I participated in an egg-drop competition! Good luck!
