Confession time :

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
61

I make wedding dresses and other formal wear in my spare time.

I gave birth without the aid of anesthesia less than a year ago and still nurse.

I have changed more than a dozen diapers in the last dozen years.

Three is the lie. I have changed about a half dozen diapers in the last dozen years. Hubby and KellyM got to do that dirty work. lucky me! :slight_smile:

62

Mine were:

  1. I have had five surgeries in 10 years.

    True. Beginning in August of 1992 and ending in March of 2002, I’ve had three C-sections, one ruptured tubal pregnancy removed, and my gallbladder removed.

  2. I have ridden a duck.

    True.  In Branson, MO, they have amphibious vehicles called Ducks, and last year, I rode one.

  3. I was a model for a local clothing store’s sale paper.

     Lie.  ACK, if you ever saw me, you'd KNOW that was a lie!   :D
63

From the other thread:

The results are:

  1. I did publish one piece of writing - a poem - in a newspaper in 1995. That newspaper has a circulation of about 100 people.

  2. The painting was sold in 1996 at an auction for charity to the person who had told me five years earlier that I had no talent and would never make anything of myself. She paid 75$ for the painting.

  3. I don’t actually have any tattoos, only piercings.

64

Sorry for the delayed reply, I was out of town for the weekend.

Anyway, here goes:

#1 - TRUE. I had quite a long layover at Charles DeGaulle a few years back and met a local girl at the airport. We went to Le Tour Eiffel around 2 or 3 in the morning, at which point I had had several terrible French beers (I don’t drink wine.) As we were walking around the base of the tower I asked her if she knew where a bathroom was and she looked at me with a little confused look on her face for a minute and then brightened up and said “You are a boy! Ze world is your toilet!” There was no one else around so I thought what the hell and pissed on one of the legs.

#2 - TRUE. I’m sure I would like it if I ever got into it, especially the old ones. I’ve just never happened to catch it.

#3 - FALSE. You guys caught me pretty damn easily on that one :slight_smile: .

  1. I once spent a whole day as a Venice Beach Street Person. One day was enough.

  2. I have driven cross-country in a pickup truck, by myself.

  3. Some of my portrait art is in the collections of semi-well known actors.

#1 is true. Long story.

#2 false. I have driven halfway cross-country with other people, in a Plymouth Voyager. I’ve also driven several times (alone and with family) up from L.A. to the Northern California border and beyond into Oregon, but never the entire expanse of the USA by myself. I have done it by train, though. Obviously I was not alone on the train. :wink:

#3. True. “Semi-well known” is a judgment call, though. Some of them probably are people you’d recognize if you saw their faces, but not necessarily their names.

66

  1. I have a pending civil lawsuit against The Straight Dope.

  2. I have no teeth.

  3. I have a 100 lb. Lab/German Shepard named Maggie.

67

I said:

#1 is the lie. The varsity football player was a linebacker, and he was more of a family friend than a close personal friend.

68

This is the confession page Blackdragon so confess already. I think it’s #1, or at least I’d love to know the reason why you would sue The Straight Dope.

69

Not even false ones? :wink:

Nah, #1 has got to be the lie. If it wasn’t, we’d want details. :smiley:

70

  1. False. I love the dope.

  2. True. Now guess my age. Nevermind, I’m only 26. Long story.

  3. True. Best dog ever!

71
  1. I can play the didgeridoo.
  2. I can speak Mandarin.
  3. I have 4 pet lizards.

#2 is the lie. I have trouble enough trying to speak French. :slight_smile:

72

While this is good news, I’m kind of dissapointed. I wanted to know why someone would sure the SDMB.

73

Big deal. There’s only 2 notes to learn… :stuck_out_tongue:

74

I can’t confess yet, no one’s taken a guess at which of mine was the lie.

75

I dodn’t post my complete list of guesses, but I marked #1 next to your name on my sheet of paper. Was I correct? Probably not, as I’ve only been right on 18 of 49 so far…

76

1) I once hit my sister in the mouth with a golf club.

My sister snuck up behind me and I hit her on the backswing, chipping some of her teeth and splitting her upper lip. I was more traumatized that she was, and ran like heck all over the place, crying. My neighbor chased after me, and almost got hit by a car chasing me across the road.

And it was my favorite club - the seven iron. :rolleyes: (I still have it though.) Worst of all, my sister still has a scar on her lip - with tiny dots from the stitch holes. It’s quite noticeable when it’s cold out. I feel so bad. :frowning:

2) I missed half a school-year with double pneumonia.

The tick was right, but for the wrong reasons. I never missed any school with double pneumonia. Instead I missed practically the entire summer between grades 4 and 5. :frowning: The previous summer, I lost my best friend in the Air India Flight 182 crash. :frowning: :frowning:

3) I am a 28 year old virgin.

Yes. Yes, I am. (And I’ve only ever had one actual girlfriend, and that was thirteen years ago. She was too much for me at the time. :wink: I wonder where she is now…)

Anyhoo…

77
  1. I legally hold the title of ‘Knight’.
  2. I’ve tasted the flesh of a rattlesnake.
  3. I can recite the titles of every Star Trek episode in chronological order.

No, #1 is true. As is #2. #3 … not so much. I’m pretty handy with Star Trek episode titles, but not that handy.

78

:mad: If no one is going to take a gander at mine soon, I might confess, but please, please, please, someone guess!

79

I’m guessing… #1. Because it’s the most plausible.

80

Your right. Darn, I’m way too transparent. Trust me, It’s not plausible with me.

I am a bad liar.
