</div>

False. I don’t want to sound like a snob (I watch my share of TV). But I don’t think I’ve ever watched even a segment of a reality show. Not my thing, I guess.

TNP has played tennis in the past year.

</div>

True. But pollen, long a problem for decades suddenly, as of last year, ceased to be a problem due to, I guess, local honey, Flonase, and sometimes Clariton. Seriously, sneezing fits and sinus pains are now rare. Cats used to be a big problem, I love ‘em, but now I keep a distance.

TNP thinks his/her dentist is recommending unnecessary procedures.

Never a whole one, no, but I have had various dishes that included lobster.

False, been there several times, but never during Mardi Gras. Not sure I’d like the crowds.

TNP has attended a World Series game, a Super Bowl, or an NBA finals game (yes, I’m intentionally excluding Stanly Cup and whatever they do in soccer)

</div>

False. There’s no way to look good answering this. If you pick up the penny you’re a penny pinching miser and if you don’t you’re a lazy SOB. Call me lazy then, I think I let the penny go the last time I saw one.

TNP has done or tried a magic trick without cards (coin or rope or handkerchief or top hat, whatever.)
