Level 8

I have met people who claimed to be me
I can't swim
I have dated three ex spies

@SallyMc I stuck to the rules, but even people who know me I think would get it wrong.

I will reveal, I was about to say, but then thought I should let @Redcupcoffee give it a try. If I ran this past people who know me they are sure to get it wrong. In fact I think I will toss it up on FB and see what happens.

OK I put this to FB, my son hasn't seen it, my daughter got it right off, I haven't confirmed and no-one agrees with her so far. This is more interesting than I thought.

@Redcupcoffee Actually number 1 is true, it has happened on 3 occasions, I keep a low profile but had some successes years ago and in a small region they would come up in discussion. I have been in meetings and people have claimed they were me. I found another on the internet about 3 years ago, I tracked him down, I had never heard of him, met him or anything. Weird.
I have surfed all my life, was a distance swimmer but 6 weeks ago I tore both my rotator cuffs, I can hardly move my arms, so I cannot swim.
So the reality is that I have only dated 2 ex spies.
ON FB my daughter called it, no-one else could.She has met the 2 ladies concerned and couldn't place a 3rd.

Level 6
  1. I’ve been single for about 2 years.
  2. Batman is my least favorite superhero.
  3. I think a great steak only needs 3 ingredients.
  4. I love comedy movies.

Batman.

@pthomas59 I’m actually a Taurus. Lol. But it’s all good. Leo is just an online nickname I’ve used for like 10 years.

@Redcupcoffee sorry. I absolutely despise Batman. The correct is #4. I can watch them but I typically find stupid comedy...lame. @pthomas59 guessed correctly 🙂

Level 6

So are you a fan of the NPR show 'Wait Wait don't tell me'?
Well I am going to make this harder for you because I don't play by the rules. Only one of these things is not true

  1. I am a beekeeper
  2. I have pet snakes
  3. I raise worms
  4. I have a actual blue tooth
  5. I have a 33 year old daughter that I didn't even know about until 3 years ago
  6. I ride a tricycle

Well, you said tricycle rather than 'trike', that may be the tell unless you're playing with words!

@phxbillcee well that would be just silly, it would be like calling a bicycle a bike. But to be fair trike is in the brand name.

how about no. 5.

I have only one daughter, she is 10 🙂

I have a TerraTrike, it is a recumbent tricycle. I got it so I could go slow enough to ride with my daughter and not fall over.

#4

@Parzival Surprise... yes, that is an actual blue tooth, but no it is not electronic.

  1. I can tie a knot in a cherry stem using my tongue.
  2. I am related to Queen Elizabeth II.
  3. I was nominated for homecoming king my senior year in high school.

Ah, you made sure to say "nominated"! Gotta be #2, 'cause you can't be related to a ship!!! LOL

@phxbillcee Nope. I can absolutely tie a knot in a cherry stem using my tongue. ?

@Donotbelieve also, I can’t dance unless I’m really really ridiculously drunk and then I’m obviously the best dancer in the world. Although I could literally count my dancing embarrassments on one hand. In over 50 years! Lol

@Redcupcoffee #3 was true. 1983, Ronald Reagon.

Level 8

I have been married twice.
I have been to India.
I have seen Mt. Rushmore.
I have a large collection of junk hours away from where I live.

I know, you've actually been married # times!

A good guess.... But is that your final answer?

@Holysocks I get more than 1!

@Holysocks You've never been north of Indianapolis! West of Topeka or East of Nashville. Your junk is actually in your backyard! (Think I've covered everything now!)

@phxbillcee
Okokok. You have three more guesses...

Level 6

OK, I'm going to give you another try.

1 - I was on the Jerry Springer show
2 - I was on Celebrity Appritice
3 - I was on The Daily Show

And by on I mean on camera

😮

@Redcupcoffee I was on Celebrity, that one I actually worked on. Got to meet the Donald but had no interest in even getting a picture with him, shaking his hand was bad enough.

#1

@walklightly I was on the Jerry Springer show, in the Audience but I managed to get on camera several times. I've been trying to find that video but it's on VHS!

@Keyboard-Mama 2 and 3 are true. Actually, 2 happened a couple of times.

@Keyboard-Mama Me too and what an awesome, friendly, down to earth guy. He and my Uncle and Dad got pretty happy those nights.

Level 7

I learnt to build mongolian tents in the Italian mountains.
I was escorted back to my hotel in the 1980's by the Bulgaria equivalent of the Red Guard whilst drunkenly extolling the virtues of Lenin and Trotsky.
I was an altar boy in my youth.
I was 'forgotten' by my tour guides on a group tourist trip to the gobi desert and spent the night in the desert on my own til they picked me up the next day. It was the most terrifying experience of my life. They simulatanously were profusly apologetic and found it hilarious.

Did you have warm clothes in the desert?

@FrayedBear is that your guess? 😉

@SimonCyrene They are usually very cold at night compared to daytime temperatures. I don't know about the Gobi but we often have 30-40°C variances.

Level 8
  1. I love salads
  2. I love frogs
  3. I love dogs

@Redcupcoffee
#4 is wrong

@phxbillcee
No cute Kermit for me.

Level 4
  1. I have a Vizsla puppy named Harriet

I'm 5"7 feet tall, brown eyed, a Leo (zodiac), and a black belt in karate.

  1. The Bee Gees are one of my favorite groups
  2. I love singing along to pop music from the 60s

It better be #1 as the lie & not #3, or I'll have a "Noriega" done on your ass! LOL

@Rugglesby I don't think they have a song I don't like. Lol

@JoeMastle there's a post that does the old "desert island bit with choices of Pearl Jam, Nirvana or Other. I had to do other & list the Stones!

  2. I I have traveled Europe: Germany, Spain, Italy, France, Denmark, and other countries.
  3. I I have a patent in computer technology.

What is our prize? What do we win?

Wrong.

Riding home, about '95, I decided to sprint between lights. For no fewer than three lights (and I think it was four), I kept up with a bunch of frat boys in a rag top.. they shouted "Lemond!" to me at the last light as they realized this cyclist was keeping up with them, and turned. I guess they gave up. Boy was I beat when I got home... my fiance was actually worried I was so winded but man did the sprints feel good!

Now it's 50/50. 🙂

#2

@walklightly Bingo! Though, it's a bit tricky in that I have NOT been to Italy. I have been to Germany, Spain, France, Denmark, Luxembourg, Austria (well, sort of), and England.
