Well, Hell.

It seems I've been recruited into one of those blog-meme things, against my better judgement.

Rachel Cohen-Rottenberg appears to have started it.

It requires me to list five things about myself, four of which are absurd nonsensical lies, one of which is absolute truth. Then I must name five other bloggers, and dare them to do the same. I dunno about the latter part, it seems all too "social" to me.

Anyway, here are the four lies and one truth about me:

1. I served honorably as an infantryman in Viet-Nam.

2. I really like the music of Judy Collins, and have all of her records.

3. I voted for McGovern for President in 1972.

4. I drink alcohol only in moderation, and am quite sparing in my use of it.

5. I exercise every day with all of my firearms, and am an excellent shot.


Now, I have to name five other bloggers. Dang!


Ok, here I go. I must say that most of the folks with whom I correspond on the 'Net don't do these silly blog memes, but I am going to name them, anyway.

4. Robb, the Pantsless

5. Fuzzybear Lioness

I think I'm supposed to notify the ones I've named, that I've named them, but I'll not do that right now, maybe a bit later.

I can see that you love this social stuff as much as I do!

I reckon number 1 is the true item, because to make up a story about serving in Vietnam would be a little bit dodgy. I'm feeling a bit sceptical about number 4.

Lili, you are so wrong, except about number 4

You drink in moderation? I'd bet if you died 5 minutes from the decomposition wouldn't set in for at least another 5 years you are so pickled.

Qm, I drink in moderation by 18th-Century Naval standards.

That is, If I can stand up on my feet without assistance, I am not drunk.

Lili lives in Orstrilia, which had a Prime Minister who once held the world high-speed beer-drinking record (while in office!), and understands this kind of thing.

@Lili: Qm admits to having an officially dxed Aspie Grandson. You can see by his other posts elsewhere that the apple did not fall far from the tree, to use a figure of speech. Snork!
