Here's a fun little game we played at a work meeting today as an icebreaker. Write three statements about yourself. Two should be true. One should not be true. Everyone else gets to to guess which statement is the lie. First one with the correct answer gets to go next. I'll start:
1) My first car was a 1976 Plymouth Duster.
2) My favorite movie is "The Never Ending Story".
3) My grandfather was a hobo.
Which one is not true?
Beauty's where you find it. Not just where you bump and grind it.

He Who Wanders is correct. I hate"The Never Ending Story" and sometimes refer to it as the never ending movie.

Following Jerry's lead:
1) My first car was a 1968 Mercury.
2) One of my favorite movies is "A Few Good Men."
3) The last band I saw live was Styx.

1) I was once ejected from a chain store for pointing a set of wire cutters at a security guard. 2) I once had a bone broken, not by accident, but deliberately. 3) The song "Day After Day" (aka "Finding Out About You") by Badfinger gets stuck in my head with alarming regularity, and I'm actually rather fond of it.

The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

Rocky wins with choice #1!
I did once go to a demo at Safeway, back in my Union days. Somebody brought along wire cutters so we could all cut up our Safeway cards in front of a photographer who'd come from the AFL-CIO house organ to cover the event. The security guy scolded us for bringing "a dangerous weapon" into the store, so we just went outside quietly and did the cutting/picture-taking in the parking lot.
No brandishing, no ejection, no harm, no foul.
Go, Rocky!

And Chief Taylor wins.
I actually have seven nephews, a niece and a grand-niece--nine in all.
And before anyone asks, our choir wears academic hoods when we sing certain services, such as Evensong. It's mostly an English tradition, but some American choirs do it also. And so, I decided to buy myself a master's hood (And yes, I have the degree!).
Your go, Chiefie.

Wow, and I thought the answer was zero because I couldn't recall you ever mentioning having brothers or sisters! I thought you were an only child! I'll think of some things and post soon...

1) I played Sky Masterson in a high school production of "Guys and Dolls".
2) I soloed the Beatles hit "Yesterday" in a high school show choir concert.
3) I sang the lead in the song "I Am the Monarch of the Sea" in my university chorus.

Jerry is correct! I did NOT play Sky Masterson in "Guys and Dolls"--I played Nathan Detroit! You're up, Jer!
