Trouble with Android App Uncaught Exceptions in the Log

When I launch my app I get the following errors in the log. Can you anyone decipher some of them for me, and give me a potential solution? I would be so grateful if you could as its proving very frustrating and I am new to Android development. I am using Eclipse SDK with an Android AVD at 1.6 SDK level.

Thanks..

Your problem is on line 87 of your Distractions class.

The error stack complaining of a ClassCastException which is thrown when a program attempts to cast an object to a type with which it is not compatible.

It looks like you are trying to cast a FrameLayout as something it is not.

Good tip for decoding the error stack, look for the line that says Caused by: This line will give you a reason for the error and the line below will show you where the error is happening and will include a line reference so you can easily find the problem.
