Wow! He’s a Harvard graduate and did grad work at Columbia.
Yea, and my friend and I were the only two out of like 200 or so kids who read it at our school and he was happy and amazed that me and him read it in 4 days...
Let me see..sixteen years ago:
1. I was sent to the principal's office (because I was absent for a day)
2. I was told to step out of the classroom (because I was playing football inside the classroom)
3. I was suspended for three days (because I was caught writing on the wall)

Very exciting, December. I'd guess they're all lies, Leslie. I can't imagine you ever getting in trouble ;)
But, if I have to choose, I'd say number 1?
I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say number two is the lie. I can't picture you playing football.
Garrison, it was just an improvised game, sorry, I didn't make that clear.
No. 3 is the lie. I've never been suspended.
Ryan, I've been in trouble many times when I was younger.

I bet you were cute as a kid, Leslie. :)
1. I've jumped out of perfectly good aeroplanes more than twenty times.2. I've surfed waves that are so big I needed a jet ski to tow me into them.
3. I've scuba dived so deep I spent time in a decompression chamber.
It’s difficult to choose! A person likely to have been in one of those situations is just as likely to have been in either of the other two.
Ah, you know me too well Leslie. I like scuba diving but only in the shallows, I'm too claustrophobic to go very deep.I won't ask what type of person that is, M ;)
One of these days, I'm going to try surfing.
The closest I get to it is the World Wide Web. Lots of big waves!
I've said it before, Ryan: you've led quite the interesting life! :)Aside from writing, my dream occupation would be a…
1. Standup Comedian
2. Cage Fighter
3. Librarian
I'm a lot more mellow these days, Garrison :)I'd say number 3 is the lie. I think I know you well enough to be fairly certain. But, maybe not...
Hi Garrison, I imagine the other two are just about as nerve raking for different reasons, I'm going to guess....Comedian?
The lie was cage fighter. Yes, I'm an MMA nut, but I'm far from an athlete. Cage fighters have to dehydrate themselves to make weight and train for 12 hours a day just for a 15 or 25 minute fight months away. I couldn't handle that kind of schedule.
Haha! I was guessing from the total wrong angle. Nice one, Garrison. I think a Librarian in the right Library would be an incredible job.
It'd be peaceful, that's for sure. I could use some peace in my life. :)
I read a book by Paulo Coelho called 'The Road To Santiago'. Now that's my idea of peace. One day. Have you read it, Garrison? Well worth it if you haven't.
My bad, the title is 'The Pilgrimage'. On the surface it is about a trek on a pilgrim trail from France to Santiago. Deeper down it is about soul-searching, rebirth and peace. Lots of people do the trek every year - no phones, no technology, nothing but you and your feet and beautiful surroundings.
If there was ever a way to kick my computer addiction, this would be it.
I've been waiting ages and no-ones taken a turn, so....try this one.... I have been:1) hit by the drum sticks of well known drummer.
2) frisked by the secret service.
3) bitten on the bum by a roadie.
A roadie is someone who sets up a band's equipment just before they put on a concert.
Ah. Thank you, Garrison!Hmm. One and three both involve bands. I’ll go with the second one.
No, sorry 2 and 3 are true - one is the lie - he threw them but missed so I threw them back!!
Flying Drumsticks: sounds like a martial arts movie of some kind. Hehe! My turn!On my dating site profile, I openly admit to being…
1. Curvy
2. Mentally Disabled
3. Unemployed
The lie was number three. I never admit that I'm unemployed, because I want to be loved for who I am, not how much money I make.
ok so umm.....
1. I can't find anything to read
2. I'm going to a concert this summer
3. I know more old songs then new

i guess ill go with two. well see who got it right. lol.okay then um...
1.) i love swimming in barely thawed lakes in febuary (well more like jumping in, screaming, and jumping back out).
2.) when it comes to food- the spicier the better.
3.)i used to seriously think i could fly when i was a kid so id practice in the backyard. "anyday now ill lift off the ground!"
Well, they're all very different, but what about 2?
Well based on nothing more than I like the word....number 1 ??
When I vacationed in Canada in 2013 with my family, my most socially awkward moment was…1. Refusing to talk to four southern girls who were sharing an elevator with me.
2. Cracking my knuckles and causing a girl to curl up in a ball.
3. Blowing my nose like an elephant in the middle of a bookstore.
Garrison wrote: "I'm guessing 1 for Jack."yep. but id definetely leap in screaming in early march. usually not febuary. lol. once i did it in late january to scare these visitors who were watching the lake.
me: CANNONBALL!!! needless to say- i think i almost died, plus my clothes were wet and freezing the rest of the walk home. lol.
hmmmmm i think its number 2? though number three would be pretty funny too- not to laugh at your most awkward moment but it looks pretty funny in my head. lol.
