True. I knew Marilyn Monroe’s birth name even before Elton John’s song. The Next Poster gives out candy to trick-or-treaters on Halloween. ---

False, and I’m ok with that. TNP has never been to New Orleans, Seattle, Phoenix, or Kansas City. ---

1. Yes, on a business trip. Memories: food, pouring rain in sun shower steaming off the sidewalk. 2. Close, picked up my puppie in Battle Ground. 3. True, on a business trip. Nearly died from the bright sun (not the heat). 4. True, many times, ex-fiancé’s home town. Favorite small city in USA. TNP wavers between cranberry sauce or mayonnaise on cold turkey sandwiches after Thanksgiving. ---

False. I don’t waver, I never eat mayonnaise on a sandwich— but, cranberry sauce on cold turkey between bread? Like DTjr would say, I love it. TNP has someone in their family with Jr or III after their name. ---

True. Only one III that I can think of, but lots and lots of juniors - including me. I think it was a lot more common in the mid-twentieth century than it is today. TNP knows at least one person who is/was on TV or radio a lot.(define “a lot” as six or more times in a year) ---

Lots of people. Including myself. TNP did not bother to make any New Years resolutions this year. ---

True, I never do. TNP can name all 50 state capitals. ---

True, and could since I was in elementary school. The Next Poster can name all 45 presidents. ---

> [@Prof.Pepperwinkle](#): > > True, and could since I was in elementary school. > > The Next Poster can name all 45 presidents. True, in order. TNP likes Hank Williams’ music. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ---

True. TNP’s least favorite Coen brothers movie was ‘Barton Fink’ ---

I’d have to agree. Just left me… puzzled. TNP agrees with me that \*Lebowski \*is the best Coen Bros. movie. ---

False, I think _No Country for Old Men_ was the best… TNP is an enthusiastic fan of a particular sports team… ---

True. The 1969 Mets. Otherwise I could hardly even name more than a few professional sports teams. TNP has been to a baseball game and left early, not even to beat the rush to the parking lot. ---

Just about true. My dad was the one many moons ago, who left a Yankee game early before the last out and Yankees down in the score, dragging us kids with him. This being the Yankees of course the batter homered, tied the score and they won in extra innings. We chided my dad awhile with that. TNP follows and is a fan of one sport to the exclusion of all others. ---

False. I watched mostly NFL but I also watch MLB and NHL. the next poster once scored 4 touchdowns in one game while playing for the Polk High Panthers. ---

False. I only scored three touchdowns and a safety while playing for the Polk High Panthers. TNP has told at least one whopper in the last 48 hours ---

False. While I’m not sure if I’ve been utterly truthful, I do know I’ve told no major lie in that time. TNP has a significant health problem. ---

False, although I have a laundry list of (so far) minor ailments/diagnoses. TNP has had a homemade waffle within the last year. ---
