Hi Everyone,

Thought I'd start a new game!

One player states three things about themselves, two of which are true and one being a lie.

Right! The other players then have to guess which is the lie. The player who guesses correctly first takes the next turn.

Each player can obviously play more than once bearing in mind that you would have to conclude more truths about yourself!

I'll kick start this & have fun!

1. I started watching MacGyver when it first aired back in 1985
2. I own a total of 6 Swiss Army Knives
3. I saw every single episode of MacGyver without missing one during its original run

Hmm... I'm guessing that the first two are true and number 3. is a lie?

Guess again!

Okay, then it has to be number 2.!

Correct!

In fact the clue there was that 1 & 3 were somewhat tied. If i had watched the entire series when it originally ran, I would have HAD to watch MacGyver when it first aired.

Well done! The floor is yours!

1. Sat next to Mr. T on a flight from Chicago to Toronto.
2. Played tennis with country music star Kenny Rogers.
3. Had dinner with supermodel/actress Kathy Ireland.

Oh wow!

Ummm, I'm gonna say that the first 2 are true and the last one is false

You are - absolutely .....

Wrong!

I did actually have dinner with Kathy Ireland in Mexico at Club Med in winter of 1987. She was there doing a shoot for Cosmopolitan and I was employed at that resort as a tennis instructor. My friend the hospitality manager had set up the dinner and invited me to join the table.

If you were employed as a tennis instructor....then I'm gonna say that you probably played tennis with Kenny Rogers lol. So.....1 Sitting next to Mr. T, I'm gonna guess that's false

During a flight on American Airlines from Chicago to Toronto in early 1986 and during the A-Team years, I got my bordering pass, headed down the aisle (head up all the way checking for sit numbers), found my row, put my briefcase in the overhead compartment, and as I began to sit down in the aisle seat, noticed a familiar 'mug' sitting in the window seat. - it was indeed Laurence Tureaud or 'Mr. T'.

My boss, a huge A-Team fanatic (and real practical joker too) immediately asked me what I said to him .... and I said not much of anything just a nod, smile and a 'hello'. That's it????? Are you sure that's it??????, he confirmed. Yes, that's it. Oh, he said - because if you had snarled and said ' You crazy fool' .... I would have doubled your salary now & on the spot.

..... true story.

Which leads me to Kenny Rogers who showed up at our tennis facility to play tennis once upon a time. However, he brought three band members with him for doubles and they played quietly by themselves and then left out the side door. No tennis or kibbitzing with Kenny at all, I'm afraid.

So cool! You are really lucky to have 2 awesome things like that happen to ya! I'm gonna tell my little brother about your experience with Mr T, because he is a big A-Team fan

Okay, so its my turn to give some facts lolz

1. My seconds cousins uncle wrote the music to "Singing In The Rain"
2. My great grandfather went to school with Ed Wynn
3. My uncle is good friends with George Lucas

Hmmmmmm - I'm going to say that your uncle is not good friends with George Lucas?

Now its your turn to be wrong teeheee

My uncle is very good friends with George Lucas, in fact, he lives next door to him. I have a "Lucas Films" sweatshirt that George gave my uncle. My uncle also watches George's house when he goes away...and he watches his pets too

Boohoo, I mean yeah, because now I'm sending down my Star Wars LP Cover to get autographed by 'Uncle George'!!!!!! <just kidding>

Hmmmm, again - I remember Ed Wynn from some of those old Disney movies - excellent - and I don't think that you'd ever tell a fib about Ol' Ed - so I'm going to say that you're 'singing in the rain' about Singing in the Rain!? :whistle

Hahaha,wrong again

My second cousin's uncle, Nacio Herb Brown, did write the music to singing in the rain

I threw in Ed Wynn in there because he is cool, and I do wish my great grandfather had gone to school with him because that would of been awesome! I have great respect for him and all his work in the Disney classics

You got me back. Are we easy to fool, or what? And, a great example for why never to play lottery

Those are really cool celeb connections btw!!!!

Well, your celebrity *meetings* are awesome too lol.

I guess we're even....for now Hahaha

What a cool game, denizen! And wowzers! I love everyone's stories! These are so cool! Ya'll are lucky.

Who's turn is it?

You can take it, Yope.

Or whoever else comes first.

Okay, okay by (not so) popular request, I'll go again ......



1. Literally bumped into actress Glenn Close at JFK airport in NYC. It was just after I had watched her in great performance in 'Fatal Attraction' and it kinda gave me a bit of (re)shock!

2. Was once offered a part in a Hollywood movie.


3. Sold an item on eBay to 'George McFly' (aka Crispin Glover)

Okay, so I get another chance to guess the right answer. Yay! Maybe I can redeem myself lol

Hmmmm, I'm gonna say that the lie is that you were offered a part in a Hollywood movie?
Am I right?

Sorry, wrong again Abi!

I once spent an evening with film producers/actors Vijay & Ashok Armritraj. A great night of fun was had by all and the first thing I said to 'Vijay' (who played an MI6 agent in the Bond film 'Octopussy' and was soon killed off) was 'hey, I thought you were dead!? Eventually (and over the course of a few drinks) I worked up the courage to ask them if I had any chance for a part in an upcoming film.

Vijay, without missing a beat, said 'from the moment you walked in we've had you penciled in for the lead in an upcoming ..... horror flick and the bonus for us is that they're will be absolutely no makeup needed with your face.'

Okay, so I don't think they were that sincere and I'm still waiting for 'the call' .... but the proposal was on the table (even though it drew rounds of bellyaching laughter from everyone within ear distance of the barb).

Funny story, Joe!

I'm going to guess...you sold an item to Crispin Glover on eBay is a fib. But..if it's true- I'm curious. What was the item?

I actually did sell an antique Tibetan rug on eBay to a 'Crispin Glover'. I wasn't sure it was 'thee' Crispin Glover as the mailing address was to a Vancouver hotel. Then, after a quick internet search, discovered that thee Crispin Glover was in British Columbia shooting a new film - 'Willard' - at the time - so that confirmed it. Still have the money order receipt - as a souvenir - laying around in a drawer somewhere.

Which leads me to my not so fatal and very 'fictitious' encounter with Glenn Close.

Wow that's really cool!

I think I'll have a go.

1. My grandmother was Cherokee.
2. My father is a preacher.
3. My aunt is an airline pilot.

I'll take a guess.....

Alright Yope...I'm gonna say that your aunt is an airline pilot is the lie

Darn. Got it right on the money, Abigail! Was it that disbelievable?

Your turn!

Hahaha, it was just a lucky guess is all A very lucky guess

Okay so it's my turn....let me see

1. I went to an Elton John concert
2. I went to a taping of The X Factor
3. I went to the "Stoogeum" a museum that celebrates the life and works of the 3 Stooges

Okay, I'll give it a whirl.

I know that Elton John has hit many smaller venues in the past several years throughout North America. So much so that he even hit my hometown and I went to see him - as I think you did as well.

Stoogeum sounds like a place that I could identify with and it looks to be in a region where you might have had plenty of opportunities to visit and I think you did.

Which leaves 'The X Factor' taping.

You're exactly right! Lol!

Elton John is my ULTIMATE favorite singer and he went to Rhode Island last November and I HAD to go, because like I said, he's my all time favorite. I even have an Elton John collection

The Stoogeum, yup, been there. I'm a big fan of their work and how could I pass up visiting their museum?

Which leaves The X Factor taping, which you were right, was the lie. I have always wanted to go to an X Factor taping though, it's on my to do list lol. I really like Simon Cowell

Okay, it's someone else's turn
