Actually, that option didn't seem as otlandish as someone, who has spent a bit of time here, never being on a roller coaster. Is that the lie?

Nope. Haha, finally someone challenges the tough lawyer

I imagine bicycles are common in India.

I'd go for #2, because I don't know of any competitions in this vein, and you're not somebody I'd associate with that sort of "achievement".

#5 could be true, though: you could wear glasses (and you do wear glasses) for a different reason to Astigmatism; the detail could be the lie.

Bicycles are common, but I never owned one for some reason. I remember having a tricycle as a toddler #2 is true, I competed with a bunch of kids, more untalented than me, when I was perhaps 9 or 10 years of age This was a competition at school. #5 is the lie, as you guessed rightly, in the detail. I wear them for short-sight (myopia), the most common reason I think.

1. I have a house in VA
2. I have a Grandaughter named Abby
3. I was adopted when I was 2 months old
4. I go deer hunting with the Col.
5. I've met several BB Members

I'd say #2.

I know you are from VA and will guess you may have property there. I think 3,4, & 5 are true, so I'm going with #2. I Have never heard you mention a grandaughter.


TIS

Nope #2 is true.

Really??? Ok, then I'll say #1 you don't own a house in VA.


TIS

Then it's definitely #3.

1. I have a house in VA
2. I have a Grandaughter named Abby
3. I was adopted when I was 2 months old
4. I go deer hunting with the Col.
5. I've met several BB Members


Miggie -- I say #1

Appreciate the compliment but that is a true statement. Charlie my Wiener (Dog) won his heat race in just under 11 seconds and was the fastest wieer in the preliminary heats at the Wiener Dog Nationals a couple of years ago

Your wrong on #1 -- I was in the Guinness Book of Records back in '98-'99 but the record. You are correct and have seen pictures of Charlie the Wiener Dog and the Pig I kissed fro the Fundraiser

Nice try my friend and good reasoning on the hitchhiking based on my love of trains and all things hobo. However, my lie is #5 -- I still hold the record for technical fouls at my high school -- cant sat that I am proud but hey -- I am in the books. I am only about 6'3" and I was a power forward. I went to a small private high school in St. louis so we did not have mnay tall guys on the BB team. Though my opponanants may have towered over me, I could box them out and not afraid to mixup o th boards. I used to hold rebounding records as well, hower, like all records (except apparently my technical foul record), it was a mattter of time before it was eliminated from the books.

OK - let's try this again from a political perspective

1. I gave a speach to the joint session of the Missouri State Legislature in the Chamber at the Missouri Stage Capital.

2. I was given a police escort by the Misouri Hiway Patrol to make a presentation to the Governor of Missouri.

3. I have attended two of presidential candidate Barak Obama speaches and strangley shocked at the response.

4. I attended a fundraiser for a congressional candidate and had to fight off the flirtatious advances from his wife.

5. I was a candidate for State Representative fro my district in the state of Missouri.

I'd say #4

3 doesn't make any sense to me. So that one.

My lie is #4

Ok, I am kind of confused here on who's turn it is!!

Thanks Mig,

You don't go hunting???? I thought for sure that was true.

Part,

Although I can't imagine why you'd go (since that's your opposite side) ;), but I'll guess you were at an Obama event.


TIS

You probably spoke before the State Legislature about funding for a charity. The police escort seems a bit odd for a civilian to make a presentation to a governor, but maybe protocol in Missouri is different. Obama spent a lot of time in Missouri and it was and remains a close state, so I think you would have made a couple of rallies, and this was early in the campaign so I think the response could have surprised you. The wives of candidates can be a bit overly friendly, so I'll say the flirty wife story is true. It's between 2 and 5. #5 was the lie last time, so I think it's #2.

I'm confused. How is this the lie?

Klydon1, you are awesome
I am taking a major risk here going against probablity, but I go for #5 Part

I think it's #5 Part.

Sorry gang -- I f'd my reply up. I was in the midle of a project and needed a break and my dyslexia must have got the better of me -- that's my excuse and I am sticking with it

OK the lie is #2 NOT #5. I meant to say Good reasoning Kly (with my riding the rails) BUT I have never hitched hike before (though I would like to try someday).

#5 is the truth -- I still hold that great regrettable record at my high school

Sorry for the confusion gang!

Then #4 was the lie.

Part, with that you've swung the probability back in my favor. So it's not #5 (lie) for the recent poll?? Mig, I said it first, not that anyone is going to get a prize or something

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDDDDDGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEE

YES Capo #4 is the lie -- I need to go get my old man reading glasses back on! Or I just need to go home and get a stiff drink!

Ha ha ha...I'm so confused. I have to go back and check what number 4 was.



TIS

Hey, only those who guess it correctly should add new polls. The way it is now, it is too confusing.

OK Here goes and I am going to have my assistant look at this before I post so that it is correct THE FIRST TIME!

1. Truth -- I spoke at the State Capital to a joint session (State Senators and Representatives) when I was 17 (speaking about the Boy Scouts of America)

2. Truth -- When I was 17 I was the official youth spokesperson for the Boy Scouts in St. Louis. each year, they did a "Report to the Governor" program. It was pretty cool -- a state highway patrol officer picked me up at my house and then escorted me to Jeffereson City, the State Capital to the Governors office to make the report and then the Governors Mansion for lunch.

3. Truth -- I was at the VFW Convention last year when it was in KC last year and Obama spoke. As you can imagine with this crowd he was heckled and booed. I also went last month when he spoke at the Truman Presidential Museum and Library. The auditorium holds about 1,000 people and there were about 200 empty seats so it was quiet as a mouse in there. Like most events if you have 1,000 seats you typically give out 1500-2500 tickets to insure a full and packed house (ever try going to a movie sneak preview and have to arrive 3 hours early to stand in line!) They distributed 2500 tickets but still only 800 showed up. I would have been pissed if I was the campaign advance team as that made more coverage (locally) than his speach he was giving.

4. Truth -- sadly but true. I have to attend fundraisers for both parties (have to get all parties on my side). Representative X's wife made some comments that were rather suggestive and I hope she was innocently flirting. She did have a bit too much to drink

5. The Lie -- Never have ran for elective office
