Getting to know you: 2 truths and a lie
« on: July 24, 2008, 10:08:12 am »
So, here's the game... you randomly list 2 truths and a lie about yourself and then everyone has to guess which is the lie! Great way to get to know each other.  For lack of a better way to expose the lie... I guess just post again the answer. Here goes...

1- I have jumped off a 75 foot waterfall
2- I have been sky diving
3- I have 2 tattoos

Can you guess the lie?

2 - LIE -  I've never been sky diving. Way too scary!
3 - TRUE - Flower on my foot and a cross behind my ear

1) TRUE - Saw JAWS however and have been secretively, deathly afraid every time I go in the water now. :o Thank goodness for the bubs - too busy with them to dive these days.

2) TRUE - But ruined the rest of my vacation because I was either throwing up or rolling around in bed hoping to die. :P

3) FALSE - Climbed Mt. Adams but did not summit. I was the 1 in 5 of our party who got severe altitude sickness. I was 400ft from the top when I thought my parka was attacking me and trying to suffocate me. :-X

1 - TRUE.  Despite our goofy name we were quite successful.

2 - FALSE.  I never cheered in high school.  I was too busy being the one playing the sports.

3 - TRUE.  The piercings have actually all come out despite several attempts.  I had three, but my body rejects them.  I do have five tattos - a unicorn on my left ankle, a unicorn head on my right thigh, a Bon Jovi related tattoo on my right hip, a design of my astrological sign on my upper back at the base of my neck and dolphins across my lower back.  (Yes, I have a tramp stamp.  And it's my favorite one!!  ;D ;D)

1.  TRUE - After college, I worked at a hotel in Sioux Falls, SD. Jimmie Walker struck up a relationship with another front desk clerk, and whenever we worked together I would write little stories and we would fax them to him wherever he was staying. He told me I should write for a sit com.

2.  FALSE - but my dad is a big wig in the Lion's Club. He was national treasurer or something, and president of his local club. Since retirement, that's his main focus. I call him "Mr. Lion's Club". I'm very proud of him.

3.  TRUE - I was Editor in Chief of my high school paper and received a plaque from the Omaha newspaper at the end of my sr. year and they did a story on me for the paper.
