Two truths and a lie, DU lounge edition
How this game works: Post three facts about yourself, two true and one that you made up. Other posters will need to guess which is the lie.

I'll start:

1. My favorite kind of sandwich filling is hummus.

2. I was 24 when I got my driver's license.

3. I was in the middle of eating a bowl of spaghetti with meat sauce when I decided to go vegan.

6. I think 3 is your lie...
mine:

1) I like to play with model trains.

2) I once built a 1965 Impala from the ground up.

3) I've met Les Paul and he autographed my guitar.

11. Nope, it's absolutely true.
I'm gong to guess #1, you don't strike me as a model train guy.

28. Okay, no more guesses so here goes
1) True. Been a train geek since I was a kid. Still love them. I keep it on the down-low...

2) True. Bought a 1965 Impala SS when I was 19, and tore it apart and rebuilt it back to original condition. Took 3 years...

3) False. While I never met Les Paul, I have owned many Gibson Les Paul guitars over the years, and about 15 years ago, a friend of mine took my 1956 Les Paul Special to a lunch meeting with Les Paul and had him autograph it for me. I sold that guitar to a local collector for 300x what I paid for it...

7. SQUEE!!! I'll play!
This is your lie: 2. I was 24 when I got my driver's license.


As for me:

1. I first made out at age 25.

2. My favorite color is heliotrope.

3. I am outspoken, and have no qualms speaking my mind in public.

9. I think #2 is the lie
You've posted pics of your apartment and clothes that suggest that you really like burgundy. I think you just like saying the word heliotrope. :)

Airmen's Mom guessed which the lie was, but you're right, I was 25 when I got my DL.

13. Here's a hint:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliotrope_%28color%29

HELIOTROPE


And, yes, you're right. #2 is the lie. :D

Mind you, #3 is a close contender - though I have spoken my mind, it doesn't mean I'm not nervous or fidgety about it. :D
