It's been a while since I've done this. Four of the statements below are true and one is not. Can you guess which?
1. A great dane once tore the scalp from my head.
2. I received a car on my 16th birthday.
3. I have participated in a Lemans course.
4. I was conceived at a drive-in movie.
5. I eat peanuts with the shell on.
Answers coming up tomorrow.
O man! I have a love/hate relationship with these. I suck at them, but I love reading them.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with #1, because I see no apparent scars. (I realize that such is flimsy evidence for a guy from SoCal.)
I had a coworker in the late 80's that ate peanuts shell and all, so I'm not surprised at that one as a possibility. My co-worker could be heard crunching all day long in his cube.
Lemans course? Is that the breathing method for pregnant women? I didn't think it was called that exactly?
ReplyDeleteAnyway...Hmmm...I'm going with #2 as the lie. I say that because, EVERY 16 year old in SoCal has a car, so since that one seems so probable, I'm gonna guess it's the lie.
HUGS.....
#5

I always get these wrong too. But I'll say you only participated at Lemans in your dreams. My head hit the windshield of my car during a collision and rolled my scalp back so I know that is easy to do. In California a car is a must. Drive-ins were very popular a few years ago. I never new anyone who ate the peanuts shell and all but I guess it would be good fiber. LOL.
ReplyDeleteI'll go with Number 5. (Can't imagine doing that!)
ReplyDeleteI am going to say the peanut one.
ReplyDeleteWhen you say "shell" do you mean the outer "hourglass" shell that contains two peanuts, or the red-brown wrapper shell covering each nut?
ReplyDeleteIf the former, then #5 is the lie, otherwise #2, since you would know that "Le Mans" (as in the racing course) is two words, not one.
I'm going to gyess that you were NOT conceived at a drive in movie. I imagine you were conceived on the shores some faraway land, in a villa. I don't know, I suck at these.
ReplyDeleteLet me Jessica Fletcher this mystery.
ReplyDeleteI think it is between 2 and 5. The latter seems quirky enough to be true, while the former seems so mundanely believable that it could be a ruse.
Therefore I say 2 is the lie.
Like the other commentators, I am usually wrong too. Given the So.Cal location, I am going to guess that 2 is true. One seems plausible. Given your stand-up-guy sort of nature, I can imagine 3 being true. You had to be conceived somewhere, though a drive-in seems unlikely. Still, it is within the frame of the imaginable.
ReplyDeleteSo, I am going to guess that 5 is not true. If it is, though, I suppose that would be a good source of fiber.
I'm going with 3. I wonder where I was conceived. I can't imagine my parents having sex, but I got three siblings so the math is there.
ReplyDeletewhat's a Lemans course?
ReplyDeletei vote #2.
ReplyDeleteWeighing in at #2. Devo
ReplyDeleteYou totally don't eat peanuts with the shell on.
ReplyDeleteI was conceived in Greece! How romantic.

ReplyDeleteoh boy. may i lovingly say that i am as bad at this as you are?!
ReplyDeletei'm guessing you didn't get a car at 16. and if you did, well then congrats. seriously. i'm not bitter or jealous at all.
