Default Question about startup

[hr]Recently... everytime I turn my car on, a ticking noise is not far behind. It sounds like a rock is getting bounced around in there for a couple seconds and then goes away for the entire time my car is running. It seems to be EVERYTIME too. If anybody knows or could help, that would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[hr]Hah... thats a good one. I wanted to see where it was comin from, but of course when you are tryin to figure something out, nothing happens. I don't know where it came from to begin with... do you have any ideas? I know its vague and pretty hard to diagnose, but thanks for your help.
