Better Know The Suque: 3 True, 1 False

  • #4 is true, although technically my wife owns it. her great uncle was the lighthouse keeper until the canadian government took over operations there. the government owns the land with the lighthouse, but the family kept the rest. when my mother-in-law passed away last year, it was passed to my wife.

    Phatboy if you had any balls I'd meet you at the AFA Boxing gym and have Coach Weichers put some gloves on us.

    i bet 3.

    1. set a coin flipping world record for fastest time flipping heads 5 times in a row on my first try and no one was there to witness... or care
    2. played with and tied an olympic gold medalist in 9 holes of golf.
    3. i was banned from cluck-u for 3 months my sr year of college for scamming free food.
    4. i was an extra in the movie bounty hunter w/ jennifer aniston during the scene in the taj in AC.

    #1... because it wasn't an accident.

    assuming "phelps" is autocorrect for "phelix," you are correct. i was actually cut from the baseball team during tryouts my sophomore year when a wet ball slipped out of my hand and beaned the coach in the back of the head. so i joined the track team instead.

    Phatboy if you had any balls I'd meet you at the AFA Boxing gym and have Coach Weichers put some gloves on us.

    that's really cool. Does she make fun of you for losing? I am assuming your were the good guys.

    She usually just rolls her eyes. I find it fascinating but she couldn't care less. And yes, my family were the good guys.

    #3 is false. I did walk through some scenes of Homicide when they weren't shooting, but was never actually in an episode. A couple of friends of mine were.

    I don't recall which game it was that I rubbed Joe Smith's head (for some reason I think it was UVA at the end of the year), but I was just in a crowd on the court waving around my hands yelling with joy like an idiot and then I rubbed a bald head and Joe Smith looked up at me all terrified like "WTF is going on?"

    OK, so here's the game. You list 4 statements about you're fascinating, interesting life. Make 3 statements that are true, and 1 that is false. People can then guess about which one of yours is false and also make statements of their own, and on and on. In the end, we learn about our awesome selves and do some serious #nothumblebragging. I'll start.

    Had beers with Jon Bon Jovi Been to the Oval Office Been scolded by a Naismith HOFer My direct paternal ancestor fought a battle against my wife's direct paternal ancestor in 1298

    God damn you Paul. I almost posted this exact same thread idea like a month ago.

    #2 is false - for some reason #1 seems too in-depth to not be true

    #2 for no good reason.

    1. I got a handjob and a blowjob within one hour by two different girls.
    2. My wife and I were born within 24 hours of each other.
    3. I once held a gun to an accused murderer.
    4. Despite watching a Maryland game at Colfax's house, I still don't know his name.
