I have an array of items that are time sensitive. After an amount of time, the last item needs to fall off and a new item is put at the beginning.
What is the best way to do this?

I would suggest using a queue, just a special instance of an array or list. When your timed event occurs, pop the last item from the queue, and then push your new item on.
