Kimberly the Canadian (I added that last part) from All Work and No Play Makes Mommy Go Something Something tagged me in the post I will call"Five BIG, FAT, LIES and...the truth". I have seen these floating around the internet like ghosts in your attic but have never participated in it. Because I like Kimberly so much (her blog is a funny place- check it!), I'mma do this thang! Remember to play close attention to ALL the words, class. You are also just picking ONE that you think is TRUE. Most of the stuff on this page is a FLAT-OUT, NO-GOOD LIE!!!
The answer key will be provided on Friday. I will link the winners' fun blogs then, too, as if you give a stinkin' rat's rear.
Which one is the TRUTH?
#1: My favorite female comedian is Ellen DeGeneres.

| That man's playing the harmonica with his nose, people!! |
#2: At a party in college, I tried to impress someone by lying and saying that I could play the heck out of a harmonica. Within seconds, a harmonica was in my hand and I was surrounded by interested partygoers waiting for me to belt out some B.B. King tunes. I faked that I was sick to avoid further humiliation.

#3: I do NOT like to impersonate Lily Tomlin characters, I WON'T drop everything if The Carol Burnett Show comes on TV (which, by the way, it never does) and would do a round-off, flip-flop topped off with "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh Yeaahhhhhhhhhhhhh" if I NEVER sawThe Mandrell Sisters on TV again.

#4: I have an extensive collection of mock turtlenecks.
#5: I know just about every word to every song of Warren G.'s 1994 album "G Funk Era".
#6: I didn't realize the Southern word combo "awallago", as in "I just poured you that Coke awallago", meant "a while ago" until 2008. When Southerners use it, it really just means a few minutes ago, not "a while ago", which adds even more to the confusion
Whatchu thank?
Are you callin' me a liar?

I am going with number 4. You totally know Warren G.
There was no "all of the above" option so that is hard. I love Ellen but feel that's too obvious so I'm going with the harmonica story which just can't be made up...can it? I'm going to regret not picking the mock turtlenecks. Great post idea!!
Oh, and if #4 is true, I'm sorry. I will only make fun of you to your face. I owe you that much.
Are you kidding me? You made it THAT easy? By way of an answer, let me tell you that I JUST did a spot-on Edith Ann impression the other day for the cherubs that gave them a whole new appreciation for the '70's. And that's the truth. ppppptttthhhhhht.
I"m going with number 6. Only a Southern person would know what that word meant...I'm guessing your not Southern.
I named the post wrong & will change it soon! It should be Five LIES & the truth. Oops!!! Sorry. :(
Is it 1 or 4, 4 or 1? BUZZZZZZZZ!!! Times up? Ok, I'm going to go with #1...NO #4! #4 is my final answer.
#5 is the truth. Has to be.
Ummm I will say that number 2 is the truth.
#2, truth
And oh my Lord, the Mandrall sisters. I remember that show. We couldn't wait to watch it. It came on right after Hee Haw right. Truth or Lie, I sing Gloom, Despair and Agony when Baby Girl is whining and being a general grumpy goose.
The truth?? No one in their right mind likes Ellen Degeneres, she's just not funny. You aren't old enough to know anything about Lily Tomlin, Carol Burnett or the Mandrell Sisters. No one would admit to having one mock turtle neck, let alone a collection. Warren G??? you live in Texas...it's just wrong. Also, living in Tx you know Southern speak - jever, jeetyet and assorted othe moo cowed expressions.
So I go with the mouth harp story as the truth. You just craved to be the center of attention (after all we blog because we can't stand on the corner and yell "Look at me!" or we get arrested) then when called on it....choked. So #2 it is. How appropriate...#2.
#3, all the way. Total lie.
We are kindred spirits and I KNOW you do a mean Edith Ann! And as I would drop everything to watch Carol Burnett, I know you would, too. Why ISN'T that ever on TV, by the way? We need to fix that!
I think #3 is the truth! Geez, at least I hope so!
I was gonna go with #1 and then I'm all, how boring and stupid is that? So it has to be #5. It's a G thang. And because I like to imagine you at a karaoke bar bustin' it out.
I will go with the southern saying. B/c they are majorly confusing. So says the Yankee, married to a Southerner, living in the South.
Being that I have known you my whole life, I obviously know which one is a lie. ...and you really did make it waaaay too easy! If that one were true, I don't think we could be sisters anymore. jk!!
phew this is gonna be tough, but i think i will go with #3
I mixed up #4 and #5! You totally know all the words I'm betting!
I am going with 2.
#2 for me. :)
I think #2 is the truth. Cuz #3 HAS to be a lie, and that's the only other thing that I would have thought was close.
I will punch you in the throat if you own a mock turtle neck...kidding I am not that violent, but I will make fun of you FOREVER..Muwhahaha. I think that you faked the harmonica.
Ps. I am glad you played ;)
#5 is SO the truth. Regulators, Mount Up!
#2 is the truth. I met you this weekend and I just see you getting into a predicament like that.
Sort of like you were going to crash the Indian wedding and wear a sari and dance to Superman That Ho.
#3 is the truth! It has to be!!
My first thought was #5. Because I can't imagine anyone not liking Regulate. But I think the real one is #3.
I'm going with the craziest one (to me - but all too funny, b/c my husband really DOES) - you know the words to Warren G!!!
I think #6 is true. It's kind of like the years I spent wondering what, "my bad" meant. At first I kind of thought they were saying, "my bag" but wait that doesn't make any sense....
I'm slow. So I pick #6.
I'm going with #2, cause that is hilarious, and if that ever happend...it would just be awesome!
I'm going with #3 and I can't wait to find out!
It's wise to be careful about what we lie about - especially on a resume ;)
I'm going with #5.
I'm going with #2. It just sounds so much like what a college kid would do...don't most all of them stretch the truth a little to make themselves look better? ;)
If I'm not too late to play, or even if I am, I'm guessing the harmonica saga.
Can't wait to find out the truth.

It's between 5 and 6 for me....heck, I'm going with 5 since that song is now stuck in my head (thanks for that ;). Looking forward to hearing what the answer is!

Comments make me feel like I'm not talking to the wall. Don't get me wrong. I love talking to walls. Some of my best friends are walls. Still, I like hearing from you, so thanks!
