Say three things about yourself, and make one thing a lie! The next person to post has to guess what is the lie.

To start:

1. I collect porcelain dolls
2. I love asparagus
3. My favorite color is red

SS - Despite the many happenings of 2008, you remain my favourite sleuth. On the other, miss snopes, though a great friend, was not the first one I made here.

Miss March, I am going to say # 2... Perhaps you actually cannot fry an egg... I for one cannot imagine your character on the stage doing any household work.

1. I have never been to Miami, Florida.
2. I have visited Paris, France three times.
3. The farthest south I have been is Mauritius.

Ms. Parr, you are correct, and I thank you or your compliment!

And I will go with 2. Mauritius is pretty ar south, and you don't entirely strike me as a Miami Dade person.

1. I own over 500 books.
2. I've never returned a book late to the library.
3. I used to refuse to read because I didn't see the point in it.

Ms. Parr, you're right, #2 is a lie. Despite the fact that I may not look it, I'm pretty good in the kitchen.

1- I'm afraid of the dark.
2- I don't like lipstick unless it's red.
3- I once killed a gold fish.

Cordelia you're correct. I have attempted every one of those languages, but had absolutely no success learning sign language. Even though I now struggle with spanish and arabic, I picked both up quickly enough when I was fully emersed in the cultures.

#2. For both Anais and Elizabeth. Gut feeling.

1. My wife is a better auto mechanic than I am.
2. I was once hired as the Financial Manager for an entire business solely because I had a balanced checkbook with me during the interview.
3. I'm a certified instructor in land mine detection and identification.

Sorry, Jesse, I do love red lipstick. Other than that, only sunblock.

And I'd say... 3?

1- I was a really girly kid.
2- I've never spent less than six months on a job.
3- I used to give computer lessons for free to less fortunate people.

Feb-1-2010 09:36

Umm... #1 if I'm right? I don't have any particular reason, though.

1) I have three dogs.
2) I use only transparent nail-polish on my fingernails.
3) I want to become a sleuth later.

Feb-1-2010 10:13

Umm...2?

1. I am a Dental Hygienist
2. My favorite food is Baked Ziti
3. My favorite author is Harlan Coben

Elizabeth, no, oddly enough 3 is true. But I don't like beer.

M. Lacrimosa, given your post in the 'real life professions' thread I'm going to have to go with 1... :)

1. I've been whale-watching.
2. I can count to ten in Turkish.
3. I did a bungee jump at the Victoria Falls.

Feb-2-2010 23:50


Ms. Nin, I actually have been to Miami, Florida. Just the one time though... really nice...

Cordelia, I get shivers just thinking about such a jump at the Victoria Falls, so I will hope it's number 3.

1. The last book I read was written by Barbara Vine.
2. The first fairy tale I was exposed to was Little Red Riding Hood.
3. I won my last case at court.
