Two Truths and a Lie

[ER]

1. My confirmation name is Maeve, which is a Latinized spelling of Maeb, who was a legendary figure from Irish mythology, retroactively turned into a saint.

2. Eighteen summers ago I went on a weekend-long hunger strike that was being undertaken at universities around the country to protest the unequal availability of food in the world.

3. I have knowingly slept in a bed in which someone died.

I think #2, because you don't like silly, meaningless activisim.

No.

[ER]

1. I change the bedsheets here every day.

2. I never got into the Little House on the Prairie series.

3. I once had an eleven-match winning streak going in tennis tournaments.

I'll let someone else take a stab at ER's post this morning.
Here is my contribution:

1.  There is a dead goat next to our water trough right now.
2.  I chafed myself very badly walking down the trail from Masada in wet swim trunks.
3.  Yesterday I caught a small rat snake in our yard and played with it a bit before releasing it.


So which is it???

Since #2 is a true, I will guess #3, mostly because I want to believe #1 is true.

1. I change the bedsheets here every day.

2. I never got into the Little House on the Prairie series.

3. I once had an eleven-match winning streak going in tennis tournaments.

I will go with #1.  Just the thought of wrestling with a fitted sheet on a daily basis sounds like a form of torture.

I'm going to go with #3 because it sounds a little too mundane.  I think you mentioned recently that you've been having bad luck with the goats lately  .

And you're right!  Not that I wouldn't do that, it's just that I have seen no snakes of any kind on our place this year.
And I miss them . . .

Let us see....in the first trio of truths and a lie, you are correct, it is 3, and yes, the info on my confirmation name is true, and thanks!

For the second bunch...no, number 1 is true, I love clean sheets. I change them early in the day so I can have them at the ready for when I am tired. I'll save you guys the trouble and say number 2 is the lie, I LOVED the Little House series when I was a kid. And I did have that winning streak going, as claimed. I could have been a contender....

Clean slate . . . so my turn!

1.  I badly freaked out a close friend with something I wrote yesterday.
2.  My church had a near-record crowd today!
3.  My family doctor is a former State Senator who once met Ronald Reagan in person.

Alas, good gentle cleric, I predict tis 2.

Why, what'd you say to your friend yesterday?  

[ER]

1. I have a friend who has a toaster that burns the Klingon icon into whatever is placed inside it.

2. I donated $25,000.00 to George R.R. Martin's wolf preserve in New Mexico, and now my name will appear as a character in The Winds of Winter. He personally called me to say thank you, and said I could be anything I wanted, commoner to monarch, so I said make me a really high-priced caterer working for the best mansions and brothels in King's Landing who secretly serial-poisons deserving jerks from Highgarden and Dorne after the example of the whacking of King Joffrey, Last of His Name. He said he would make it happen. You read it here first.

3. I have driven the same car since 2001.

[indianasmith]

I should have disqualified you from answering that last one!! ROFL

OK, I am going to go with #3, because your husband would have got you a new car by now.
(So which of your names will the WINDS OF WINTER character use?)

Um...just, um....wow, really, 3 is your guess? 3? Have you suffered a recent blow to the head? By chance?

Let's try this again.... I say George RR Martin called me personally after I found 25 Gs sitting around to give to wolves, and I will be in the next book, so 3 remains your guess? LMAO!

Uh, no, Lewis, it's not #3.... lololol ;-)

[indianasmith]

I'm sorry, it must be #1 then.  You would NEVER lie about anything GAME OF THRONES related!!

1 In college when I was involved with the radio station on campus I walked in on two people getting it on atop the only sofa on station.

2 For the most part I've never left a place I worked on good terms for various reasons.

3 When I was at a friends high school graduation party a classmate of mine, who was seeing a classmate of mine walked up to me arriving and said "All guys masterbate."

I was tempted to say 1 but I'm going with 3. 

surprisingly enough that actually happened

had the girl in question not been seeing someone at the time I'm pretty sure based on what she said I could've/would've boinked
her that night

[ER]

1. We're going to a major league baseball game tonight.

2. Today in the store some lowlife with meth-jaws came up and real insistently wanted me to give him a dollar.

3. When I got home around five I found out our beagle ate most of a candy cane-scented Christmas candle out of a box in the garage.

[indianasmith]

Hmmm . . . #1?
