How about leaving her a message like "Hon' I have a chance to win an all-expense paid trip to (insert HER favorite vacation spot) but I NEED you to call me back immediately to answer a question!"
When she failed to call back, and checks her messages, she might get the message (if you know what I mean)!
As for the others, wait until they are in a mid-text coma and mention some off the wall comment like "Is it OK if we don't celebrate Christmas and birthdays anymore?" and see if they respond. If they don't, then you tell them that you presumed that they agreed since they didn't DISAGREE! See, it's a win-win scenario.
OK, maybe not with the wife, but heck, it could be good for a laugh.
