I looked to see if this one is here and didn't find it. If it is already a thread I apologize.

This game is an old CIA standard or at least the movies would have us believe it. Tell four truths and one lie. If you're playing along, quote the person you're guessing. Rep the person who gets it right.

I'll go first.

1) I have eight kids.
2) I'm alergic to cats.
3) I've caught a 45+ lb. Sting Ray.
4) I dressed up as a dancer from "Cats" for career day in high school.
5) I've never missed an election.

I reckon the lie is #5. You've missed an election or 2!

you weren't in a band with 20-somethings, and if you were where was your mother.

I doubt a sea lion stared you down.

I was and my mother made me quit when she found out I sang at a bar.

No reason to ponder that thought. :D

I doubt you once lived with English gypsies.

LOL! Oh, Joe *shakes head* You narrowed it down all right and you're wrong. The fib is “I’m a divorcee.”

I doubt you’ve been an avid swimmer for three years.

Next set:
  1. I never had a one-night stand.
  2. I was on the news.
  3. I wrote my WIP in 2 weeks.
  4. I took 3-years of piano lessons.
  5. I have a raspy voice.

I doubt you’re a relatively unpaid potter.
