I'm going with #2 because you strike me as smart enough to keep that from happening.
I feel more like I do now than I did a while ago.

1.  I was once asked to resign as pastor of a church, because I was "too disconnected from the congregation."
2.  While in Israel last year, I saw a huge, bloated dead camel beside the road.  I think he'd been hit by a truck.
3.  One day last year I put on my boot without shaking it out first and got stung by a scorpion.

Let's kick it up a notch and raise the odds. One of these is a lie, the rest are true. And for the record, I am just about out of interesting truths after this, so if my truths in future start being, like, "Um, I own two dogs" that'll be why.


1. When I was sixteen I said the eff-word in front of my mother for the first time, and I was saying it at her.

2. As a minor I used to sometimes steal library books, read them, and smuggle them back in a timely manner, because much of what I wanted to read fell under the "18 and up" restrictions our sub-fascist local government imposed on the library system.

3. Last week we were notified we had made $20,000.00 in purchases on our Kroger Plus Card, and were given some nice personalized coupons, and a dollar off gasoline at any Kroger Fuel Center.

4. I once saw someone tear another person's middle fingernail off with a pair of pliers. Unlike what they show on TV, it involved a rolling motion rather than a straightforward pluck.

5. At a charity fundraiser at a golf course during the 1989 ATP tournament, one of the players hit on my mother (who was in her twenties then and looked younger than she was). Three years later I was watching Wimbledon on TV and she said, "Hey, that's the one I told you about." And it was Andre Agassi, all dressed in white, playing for the championship.
