A Little Game

1. As a little kid, I once rubbed pop corn into soil and ate it.

2. I like standards music.

3. I am right handed.

I think you're left-handed

1. As a little kid, I once rubbed pop corn into soil and ate it.

2. I like standards music.

3. I am right handed.

 

I will guess that it is the second one because your mother never gave you popcorn as a child. Little children shouldn't have popcorn because they can choke on it. And besides, I think you lurve standards music and you are right handed.

 

 

Okay, as for me...I think it is time for the awful truth.

 

1. I once ate a cockroach.

When I was first married, about 25 years ago, my sister in law was visiting. I, of course, had to impress her and so while I was waiting for her to turn up, I decided to bake a chocolate cake. I made the batter and instead of preheating the oven, I poured the batter into two cake tins and left them on the bench, turned the oven on to preheat and put a load of washing in the machine. When the oven was at the right temperature, I put the cakes in the oven. After they came out of the oven and were cool, I topped them with delicious chocolate mocha frosting and a sprinkle of chocolate flakes. Well, Sonia turned up and we sat in the lounge room with cups of tea and chocolate cake. I cut two slices and offered her one. She declined the cake at first but had a cup of tea. I, of course, love chocolate cake, and with a total lack of any good manners, bit into my slice and it crunched! I chewed a bit because I didn't want Sonia to think anything of it...I was trying to impress her after all...and when she excused herself to go to the bathroom, I spat out my bit of cake and there was half a cockroach. There was no other pieces of cockroach to be found. I threw the rest of my peice of cake in the bin and I checked around Sonia's piece for traces of the beastie but none were evident. When she came back in, I pretended that I had eaten all my piece of cake and pretended nothing was wrong. And yup, she ate her piece of cake, with no crunchy bits in sight! So that is the true story.

 

2. I singlehandedly painted my loungeroom and kitchen hot pink.

When my children were little and my husband was working night shift, I decided to paint my house. My house is an open plan house and the hall, lounge, dining and kitchen all flow into one another. I washed all the walls and then we chose the paint. It was supposed to be apricot but when I had painted it, it turned out pink. A nice pink...but pink all the same. Since everyone in the house is male, including the dog and I am sure the goldfish we had at one stage were all male, I thought I would keep the pink. Just 'cause I could...and that is me all over. So although it is a pink...a nice shade of pink...it is not hot pink. So that is the lie.

 

3. I sang back up vocals at a concert.

I was expecting people to think that this was the lie as I am infamous for a singing voice that sounds like a cat in a tumble dryer...not that I would put a cat in a tumble dryer...still.... About twelve years ago we went on holidays and stayed at a caravan park. It was the best we could afford at the time. Anyways, because it was school holidays, the owners of the park arranged a free family concert. The singer started with lots of songs that everyone knew and encouraged the audience to sing along. I lurve singing, even if no one else loves my singing (and complain loudly about it) and so I sang along and he walked through the audience with a microphone and shoved it in front of people. Having no pride - as evidenced by the cockroach incident, I was one of the few people who sang into the microphone. This was his method of choosing back up singers for the concert. And for the rest of the night I was a doo-wap girl. This is a true story.

 

So Rob is the winner! But not for the reason he chose. And for the record my favourite pair of walking shoes are hot pink.

[vlista20]

I had to think on this one so it's taken me a while to post but here's mine.

 

1. I have never been to a circus.

2. I have never met my best friend in person

3. I am very scared of mice.

[vlista20]

That's a difficult one, but I'm excluding number 2 right away. I can believe you've never met your best friend in person - of my four closest friends I've met two of them once, one of them twice and I've yet to meet my best friend in person. I've never actually been to a circus, so I can believe that, but for some reason I'm drawn to number 3. I think you actually love mice.

 

Rob

 

 

Hey you got me!! I don't LOVE mice but I do think they're cute and I've been known to save them from my cats jaws. You are good at this!

[AFriendlyFace]

Hey you got me!! I don't LOVE mice but I do think they're cute and I've been known to save them from my cats jaws. You are good at this!

 

Mice and other rodents are kinda cute. It's snakes and bugs that freak me out.

 

Hey I just realized Sharon still hasn't told us her lie!

[NickolasJames8]

Ok, I'll go again.....

 

I was born in Concord, Ca

I don't believe that people really died in the 1960's and 1970's

I did it with a girl before

[NickolasJames8]

So wait, which ones do you believe???

[NateB]

Ok, I'll go again.....

 

I was born in Concord, Ca

I don't believe that people really died in the 1960's and 1970's

I did it with a girl before

 

The second one!! I mean cmon infants, accidents, murder, it happens every year!

 

 

-Nate

[sat8997]

Hey I just realized Sharon still hasn't told us her lie!

Yes I did.

 

Sharon

[Gregoire]

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

 

I wanna do another one. (And you can't stop me)

 

I turned down a free ride to aviation school

I've done every drug that doesn't involve smoking or huffing

My first guy crush had the same birthday as me

 

You'll never guess this one!

--Greg.

[Lugh]

1. I like to dress in women's clothing

2. No one but me and god knows / remembers my original hair color

3. At one point in my life I weighed 185 lbs

 

Ok time to come true:

 

1. True -- I often purchase my jeans in the jr. miss department and shoes in the womens department. Also I did drag for charity which was really really fun.

 

2. True -- if you take into consideration that my mother has altizmers, my father recently passed, and all my siblings but one were out of the house when I was even born, much less when I started to get hair. Not to mention the fact that my hair naturally changed color when I hit puberty and my facial hair (if and when I let it grow) comes in a different color than the hair on my head. Plus we have to add in the facts that I started dying my hair when I was a young teen and the fact that NAIR is my best friend.... well... it's true.

 

3. False

 

 

 

I'm guessing the lie is number 1, but that could be because both 2 and 3 were once able to be applied to ME so I just assuming they could apply to lots of people. LOL and for the record right now my hair IS it's natural colour and I weigh nearly 30 pounds less

 

Heh. Yay for you loosing the weight.

 

 

The lie is probably number 1, though I'm sure your parents must remember your original hair colour, or at least have a vague idea what it was.

 

Nope, see the explainations.

 

*waves hands frantically to get attention*

 

Ooooh Can I play too?

I choose number 3 because it seems too much like a truth to be a truth.

 

Heh. You guessed it!

 

 

and for Lugh, well I can't really imagine any of those for you. I have an image in my head from your personality and it doesn't really fit with any of those. (don't worry, thats not a good or bad thing) but for the lie, I think I'll go with "no one but me and god knows/remembers my original hair color"

 

Awwwww. Tell me what you think of me... really?

 

 

I turned down a free ride to aviation school

I've done every drug that doesn't involve smoking or huffing

My first guy crush had the same birthday as me

 

 

Well using logic... which is often wrong here goes:

 

because 1 is possible and 2 is not probable and the probability rate of 3 being very high for truth

AND

because 1 is highly unlikely and 2 is highly unlikely and 3 is highly likely

AND

because I like to take a gamble

 

I'm going to say that #1 is true, #2 is true (as far as you know) and #3 is false.

[NickolasJames8]

I believe the first two, but not that you did it with a girl.

(Loud Buzzer) I actually did do it with a girl

 

The second one!! I mean cmon infants, accidents, murder, it happens every year!

-Nate

(Loud buzzer goes off again)

Actually, I know it's irrational, but for some reason, I don't believe that people really died in the 1960's or 1970's....i wonder if that's some kind of disorder

 

I wasn't born in Concord, California. I was born in Pittsburg, California

[redone]

Ok, I have wanted to play this game so here it goes:

 

1. I gave Ed McMahn an impromtu concert in an airport terminal.

 

2. I was ordered to have a military escort out of Germany.

 

3. I fell off of a 30 foot high dive onto the concrete when I was 10.

[AFriendlyFace]

My turn. My lie was "My favorite food is soft shell crabs." ..........

Sharon

Sorry Sharon, Somehow I missed your response. Good to know that was actually my THIRD choice, really had me fooled!

 

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

 

I wanna do another one. (And you can't stop me)

 

I turned down a free ride to aviation school

I've done every drug that doesn't involve smoking or huffing

My first guy crush had the same birthday as me

 

You'll never guess this one!

--Greg.

I'm going to go with number two being false.....Just because I really hope number two if false......

 

Ok, I have wanted to play this game so here it goes:

2. I was ordered to have a military escort out of Germany.

HMMM I'm going to go with number 1.

[AFriendlyFace]

OK I wanna go again!

 

1) I've stayed up for over 40 hours before, completely voluntarily

2) I've slept for over 20 hours before, completely voluntarily (and in good health)

3) I've slept standing up before, completely voluntarily

[NickolasJames8]

1) I've stayed up for over 40 hours before, completely voluntarily

2) I've slept for over 20 hours before, completely voluntarily (and in good health)

hmmmm....I'll go with the last two because the first one seems impossible.

[AFriendlyFace]

hmmmm....I'll go with the last two because the first one seems impossible.

 

Actually the lie is the one about having slept standing up.

 

I have this weird thing where I hate going to sleep and I hate getting up. I mean I have no trouble falling asleep, it's just actually getting in bed is tough. Same with waking up. I usually wake up pretty well after I've been up a few minutes, but I never want to get out of bed. So one summer when I didn't have school or work I started doing this weird thing with my days where I kinda took three days and merged them into one. I'd sorta stay up for nearly two days then sleep for nearly a day. It pretty much worked because I'd finally get so tired I WANTED to go to bed, and then I'd finally get so hungry I wanted to get up.....but of course it isn't very practical, not to mention confusing......people kept talking about stuff that happened "yesterday" and I'm thinking: "yesterday! that was earlier today"....but really it was 17 hours ago or something.

[rknapp]

Whoops almost forgot about this haha.

 

1. As a little kid, I once rubbed pop corn into soil and ate it.

True, by little kid I mean like 5-6 years old. I'm not sure why I did it, but one day I was outside on the swingset with a bag of colored popcorn (red, green, yellow) and for some reason I decided to rub it into the soil below the swing and eat it. Boys will be boys I suppose.

 

2. I like standards music.

True, I find standards music to be very easy listening and will sometimes have it on at very low levels at night to put me to sleep peacefully, which result in waking up peacefully for me (but not always, sometimes the mexican cleaning guy wakes me up with his loud as radio and vacuum, grrr).

 

3. I am right handed.

This is the lie. I am left-handed and proud of it. My father tried to force me to be a righty when I started writing, but my mother nipped that one in the bud. I am only a lefty for using utensils, though, such as writing and eating utensils, hockey sticks, painting utensils, and *THAT* utensil . I throw things better with my right (for sports).

[Gregoire]

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

 

I wanna do another one. (And you can't stop me)

 

I turned down a free ride to aviation school

I've done every drug that doesn't involve smoking or huffing

My first guy crush had the same birthday as me

 

You'll never guess this one!

--Greg.

 

I don't wan to disappoint anyone, but it really is the third one.

 

1.) Let me explain. There was this guy at my grandparent's restuarant and he was looking for young pilots to sponsor for this aviation school. I was kind of buggin out over Todd and I said "maybe later". He came three more times and I told him the same thing, and after I was over Todd (for that brief period) he stopped cominig. Haven't seen him since. Too bad, I really wanted to fly too.

 

2.) During my not-feeling period (about 2 or 3 years ago) I got involved with the wrong crowd. I did lots of stuff...some that I'm not proud of. Yes this includes speed, LSD, and heroine. Luckily I wasn't addicted (I actually might have been I was really sick and weird for a while, but I don't think that was the reason). Afterwards I was offered dip (which I accepted, but hated...it's gross), marajuana (which stinks), cocaine (which I stayed away from), and regular cigarrettes (which also stink). I hung out with the kind of people who huffed markers, aerosol, etc. And at one point I was a casual drinker...sort of still am, but the frequency has definitely lessened. By the way, I drank more hard stuff and wine coolers than anything, not really a fan of beer (except carona with lime). There may have been a few exceptions, but I'm pretty sure I did them all, I just didn't list them all. Ooh, I didn't mention I'm getting off caffeine too, I've been clean for one month...because Mom won't go grocery shopping. And she won't let me go to Starbucks either...I can't even go to a gas station alone.

 

3.) I've never dated a guy with the same birthday as me. I've only dated one guy and that was kinda iffy. I never knew his birthday, but it was while I still had a class with him, so that wasn't it. Robbie had a birthday close to mine, but not on the same day. I also had this one friend Chris who had a birthday one day away from mine, but it wasn't mine and we weren't dating so hah. I did however date a girl with the same birthday as me. Actually, two...go figure.

 

Love as always,

--Greg.

Yeah, I'm really F*ed up.

 

XOX,

2. I was ordered to have a military escort out of Germany.

 

3. I fell off of a 30 foot high dive onto the concrete when I was 10.

 

I'm gonna say #1.

1) I've stayed up for over 40 hours before, completely voluntarily

2) I've slept for over 20 hours before, completely voluntarily (and in good health)

3) I've slept standing up before, completely voluntarily

 

I'm gonna say #3. I've fallen asleep standing up, but I usually end up on my face...or my ass.

 

Well, how 'bout 'dem Yankee's?

--Greg.

[redone]

Number one is the lie. I actually did sit next to Ed and his wife at the terminal where they were traveling around looking for new singers for their talent show. However, there was a guy there that was taking up all of their time and being a general pain in the arse. So, I didn't go for it. Missed opportunites and all that. Oh well. Next time.

[SILENCExME]

1. I get so scared of thunder and lightning sometimes i pass out
