It is time for the answers to be revealed. At last you will know the truth! And the lie! You won't care, but you will know! And knowing is half the battle. Shut up, srah, and just tell them the answers already. Most people recognized that story #2 (College Jeopardy) was true. That's because this story sucked. I do appreciate that you were so willing to believe that I couldn't come up with anything interesting to say about myself, though. I'm going to go cry in a corner, even though it is true. The other 'story' I came up with...

Here are my three stories. Two are true and one is false. I will warn you that I have a reputation for being quite good at this sort of thing, although when I've done it as an icebreaker it's usually a factoid rather than a story. You may pick which you think is the true FALSE (oops - forgot to change that when I changed from 2F/1T to 2T/1F) story, leaving your guess in the comments. If you'd like, I'd also be interested to know why you think one or the other is true or false. On Monday I'll post...

Beware the Greg

If you take a Big Bus tour in London, pay attention when your tour guide introduces himself. If his name is Greg, GET OFF THE BUS IMMEDIATELY. We were cursed with the stuttering, misinforming Greg twice on our trip. The Fam says he's probably new, but I am still annoyed by all of the misinformation he was feeding us, and after a while, I didn't trust anything he said. Booooooo, Greg. This is not to say that all of the Big Bus tour company's guides are like Greg - Alistair and the Floppy-Haired Guy were very good. So go ahead...

I got this as an email forward. I don't know if any of it is true, but it sounds nasty enough to be fact. During Autumn of 2000, a team of scientists at the Department of Forensics at University College London removed a row of passenger seats from a Central Line tube carriage for analysis into cleanliness. Despite London Underground's claim that the interior of their trains are cleaned on a regular basis, the scientists made some alarming discoveries. The analysis was broken down. This is what was found on the surface of the seats: 4 types of hair sample...
