The people who life in the outskirts of your fine town (e.g. my rural dwelling relatives) refer to SLC all the time - St. Louis County.
Clever!;) -- But you have aptly illustrated the downside of 'alphabet salesmanship' (i.e. brevity) -- to wit: the shorter the designatior - the more extraneous 'hits':D:D:D

Note: The following assumes your misspelling of Grace Neutral's name is unintentional:

I'm calling #1 as the falsehood --- ???

Rationale: #2 & #3 are too 'obvious' and, hence, by dint of what is quaintly termed 'reverse psychology', probably true.

Granted! - Expression of a desire to 'party with Ms. Neutral' isn't something one hears everyday either - Howbeit it's the 'least weird' (and, hence, in this context, the most 'suspect' of the three)...;););)

1.Stayed overnight in Fla. Everglades.
2. Dove off lobster boat in Bermuda Triangle.
3.Met Moderator at Elbo Room.
-- Edited For Anonymity --

I haven't a clue! -- All three statements appear equally plausible -- especially as the term 'moderator' can mean almost anything (up to and including D2O) --- Even had you said 'AAC Moderator' I seem to recall a post to the effect that you had personally met certain members of these fora?...

So here's a 'like' for depriving me of a good 'move' -- à la a chessmaster:cool::cool::cool:

Best regards

We had fun with this at an impromptu happy-hour last night with people I spoke to dozens of times on the phone but never met face-to-face.


Here are the rules (modified for a forum).

- Members wishing to post about themselves: Check if there are any active (less than 24-hours-old) descriptions of a member. If not, create a post describing three things about yourself. two true and one lie. The more believable/interesting the items are the better (or, the more outlandish all three might be the better). If there is a recent post by someone, become a commenter until the next day. Members can disclose which is a lie or which is true at any time. No minimum waiting time, no maximum waiting time. They can disclose in 10 minutes or never (I think a few hours is about right). Feel free to delete your original post(s) any time.

- Commenters/Guessers: All members can comment/guess which is a lie or discuss the true statements for 24 hours after a description is posted. Don't be afraid to let this off-topic conversation run off topic. Don't use the QUOTE button or usernames. If a member wants to delete the description of himself, there should be opportunity to make a clean delete without worrying about quoted snips. (I hope an Mod or two can help us keep this clean if needed).

If nobody else goes in the next few hours, I will start.
I helped put HAARP together
I was born in Alaska
I have over 100 articles published in QST

Sorry about the missing spelling ..The correct answer was #3 as USA tv created the tv series Mr.Robot.. I would love to party with Ms.Neutral in london which I know she looks little different for some but I like the life style but don't have any tattoo lol..

Dang, quite an accomplishment, even if only one of these is true (not looking at #2)
..makes me feel so underachieved..
I just happened to always be in the right place at the right time. They say if you have the right job, you'll never work a day in your life. That's been pretty much my experience. :)

I'll say the Disney claim is the lie. My reasoning, if you worked there, you would have been in the habit of calling your employer a , "subsidiary", instread of "division". And you would of said, "Imangineering" - way better story than an engineer.
