If someone was related to Tom Cruise and everyone knew about it, that's pretty much an invitation to having everything you owned covered in grafitti that says "Xenu rules!" and "My uncle wants to pray the gay away!" and so on.

The world wants vengence on Tom Cruise but he lives on a zepplin battleship and travels by armed rickshaw... so most of us would have to settle for revenging ourselves upon his more accessable relations.

His cousin worked at my law school as the person who help graduates find jobs.  He has a lot of family in Louisville.

the only Scientologist "church" in the US outside of LA is down the street from my school.

Also: #2 was the lie.

Um, are you absolutely sure about that? Sounds like someone needs some auditing to clear some engrams and implants.

oh. huh.
I had heard that it was the only one. Maybe it was the first outside of LA? I don't know. Maybe I should go talk to them about all my problems. You know. As penance for being wrong.

Forgive me Father, for I have said a Thing about Scientology.

I hate Tom Cruise, just hate him all to hell. Why doesn't he pick on diabetics for needing insulin?

Then he'd been horning in on PETA's turf. I think most of the insane beliefs out there were assigned to different groups back in the early 80's to avoid duplicate work. It was like a cross between a meeting of mafia dons and Vatican II.

And now... on topic:

Felix, I'm going to say #3 is the lie.

I still haven't answered this, have I?  Actually, #3 is true, although to be fair it wasn't just a bar so much as it was an old 1920s movie palace converted into a bar/nightclub.  I saw Soft Machine there once as well.  It's a pretty happenin' place.  I still have the beer mat somewhere or other, too.

Also, my house really did appear in Monty Python - in the Hungarian Phrasebook sketch, no less.  It's on one of the streets the policeman runs down on his way to the tobacconist.

The lie was #2.  I got off scot-free for booty dancing in Tiananmen Square.

3.  C-list celeb Hal Sparks' dad is a family friend.

AW: I'm going with number 2 because it's detailed enough to be made up.

I wasn't quite clear on the rules so I'ma just throw three out there:

1) I have a bachelor of science with first class honours in chemistry and I work in a petrol station.

2) The left side of my left knee is totally numb.

3) I am missing one eyetooth and one wisdom tooth.

Hmmm...that's tough. I guess that number 1 is false.

Number 1 sounds like it's the lie.

Here are some more for me. I just woke up from a really long sleep and I had these terrible dreams. You know where you're in a dream and you have sleep-wake cycles IN THE DREAM so that it feels like you've been kidnapped for a week and your whole world has changed? Ugh, I hate those dreams. I still feel a little groggy.

1. I've never had general anesthesia.
2. My lowest adult BMI has been 17.5, the highest has been 32.
3. I still have all my wisdom teeth.

I'm guessing number 3.

Do I get a turn?

1. I've had a pint with Paul Simonon (bassist of the Clash)
2. My girlfriend is the youngest ever flautist to gain this like, really virtuoso award from the British Academy of Music.
3. At the age of 11 I scored higher on an intelligence test than any other my age in England.

Right you are! I had all four wisdom teeth removed when I was in my early twenties, without general anesthetic. I had a Valium and that was good enough.

Terry, I guess that #1 is the lie, simply because I want the others to be true.

I guessed #2 for you, linnea, but it said I had already posted it.
