Basically, what you do is come up with 2 truths and 1 lie about yourself and others try to guess what the lie is!

I'll go first

1) My chest caves in

2) I LOVEEEE Nutella

3) I've jumped out a window

~A

You hate Nutella?

here are mine:

1) I partied with Levon Helm
2) I have performed brain surgery
3) I graduated from Ohio State in 1979

Yep! Also, I dunno who Levon Helm is... But I'm going to guess its that one?

Nope, I actually partied with Levon many years ago.

Ellie, if you have performed brain  surgery on something not silicon based.  Ontario should quake with fear.

I'm going with the brain surgery also.

Now let's see who can sort the wheat from the chaff with my life.

1) I broke my collarbone and didn't realize for over a month

2) On the way to the hospital I was delivered on the side of the road
My parents we're not quite quick enough

3) I could water ski solo before I started school

I'm gonna go with water ski on that one.

Since you're from OZ,  #3 is a given.
Since you're a t-girl (we're tough) #1 is just possible, assuming it was not a complete break.

That leaves only that you must have been delivered by roos in the bush rather in than along the road

How'd I do?

It was a complete break, strange thing was I had complete use of my arm until I moved it in my sleep. We think we know where it happened but on what fall it actually broke we're still not sure. (Oh yeah I'm tough)

The answer was 2, but there is some fact in the fiction here. That was where my father was born

OK here's mine

1. I have climbed almost all the major peaks in the state of Washington.
2. I once spent three months at sea on a 19m boat more than 2000 km from any shore.
3. When I was 28 I danced in cabaret wearing glorious drag for a summer stock season.

Whatcha think?

I'm guessing that number 1 is the lie.

I would say number 3 is the pork pie here. If you have done number 1 you probably would of also done number 2

ok, here's mine while I wait to see if I was right on Julie's.



1.  I was on an easter seals television program as a child.

2.  I have two children.

3.  I was in a 9.2 earthquake in the early sixties.

I just hope she used the restroom appropriate for her gender...

I'll say that 2 is a lie, my turn XD

1. I have been mugged by turkeys

2. I was once followed for more than an hour by an emu

3. My grandparents had a pet crow named Jackie

Yep, I did cabaret in summer stock but not in drag.  But I would have liked to, does that count?

Jamie, for almost ten years I spent virtually every weekend in the alpine country with the Mountaineers Club.  I still love the back country, but upper body strength has gone with the wind, to anything technical would be pretty foolish.  Actually it was pretty foolish then too, but I was fitter and stronger.

I'm guessing that

is the fake, and that you grew up in Anchorage.

Well...
Actually, I attended two different universities in my academic career... neither of them was Ohio State, so yes, I have professionally performed brain surgeries on living beings in a real operating theatre. Hmmm... what's that rumbling sound?

I was born at Elmendorf and we lived in Anchorage til I was three and then went to Florida in 66.   And yeah, no kids cause I've always been sterile.

My dad was in Kodiak when the earthquake hit, and we couldn't contact him for almost a week.  My mom almost went nuts with worry.  You're in Florida?  I'll be there visiting Patty Magnusson Sept 26 & 27, landing in West Palm Beach.  Are you anywhere nearby?

No, we left there when I was five, then I went to Georgia after a brief stay with my mom in SC, but mostly grew up in NC after the sixth grade. I was bounced around a bit as a child between my dad and my grandmother after my mother decided she didn't want 5 kids...

I'm in NC now, on the coast in an itty bitty village.  Been here for the last 20 years.
