Whoa?! That's exactly the kind of failing that comes from lack of academic education (or
even popular reading).
Give up, Liz.

I don’t think the particles carry wrist watches with them.
Lots of particles decay into other ones, and it can be shown that their half life (the
time after which they have a 50% chance of decaying) gets longer as they speed up, in
accordance with Einstein's equation. This occurs in particle accelerators and is also
how muons were originally detected, I believe. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation_of_moving_particles for more details.
