"Two Truths, One Lie" Game

Simple rules: Post 3 things about yourself, 2 of which are true and one is not true. The person who posts after you has to try to figure out which is not true.
I'll go first. Where's my not-true?

1. In London Heathrow, I once found myself nearly on a plane to Abu Dhabi instead of the flight to Spain I needed to be on. A BA employee had misdirected me, and only because the stewardess caught it did I get where I needed to be just in time.

2. I dated a warlock in college, who gave me a silver bracelet to wear. When I decided to break up with him, I removed the bracelet, which broke and burned my wrist. I still have the scars.

3. I've lived in Sevilla for 30 years and never once gone up the Giralda Tower.

I was on a plane to Dulles (Washington D.C.) with a woman who thought she was going to Dallas (Texas).  It's only 1,300 miles off...

I wish the warlock story was true, but I'm choosing it.

1.  My favorite TV show is True Blood.

2.  I eat frozen mango.

3.  I wear purple eye shadow.

Uhhh purple eyeshadow? Though frozen mango also sounds suspect... I'll go with purple eyeshadow... yes...

1. I've never been on a balcony because I'm afraid of heights.

2. I have never used a diving board because I'm afraid of drowning.

3. I wanted to be a ballerina when I was a kid.

The warlock story is true. That leaves you 50/50.

I'm going with purple eyeshadow as your lie, HH.
FB, yours is tougher. I'm going with the diving board, since you don't drown from the board but from the water in the pool and if you were afraid of drowning you wouldn't even go to the pool.

Nope, the diving board is true! I will swim in a pool, but I won't dive. As a kid I tried just jumping off the edge of the pool maybe twice, but with the diving board you go deeper in the pool and stay down longer... I was afraid I wouldn't make it to the surface in time.

And by "was" I mean "am" >_<

Yabbit -- I'll say you've never been atop the tower. I imagine you having vertigo.

HH -- I'll say you're lying about the True Blood comment. You love M*A*S*H* too much.

FB -- I'll say the ballerina story is false. I picture you as a tomboy.

VH -- The comment about grease is a lie. I'm the only one who has never seen this movie.

The ballerina thing is true. The false one was the fear of heights =)

Oh! Derrr! I didn't post mine.

1) I'm adopted.

2) I want to spend time in Africa. In real Africa..not some tourist attraction.

3) As a kid, my dream was to be an orchestra conductor.

I've been up the tower so often I've lost count.

Josh, I know you want to go to Africa.I call fakesies on your 3.

Nope. #3 is true. I really wanted to conduct (and still have a hidden passion for wanting to conduct) a world-renown orchestra. As a kid, I would hide in my room, slap on some headphones, grab a baton, and conduct the invisible orchestra in my room. I listened to Mozart's Requiem over and over and over and over again. :)

eta: In fact, I'm listening to it now.

* ding ding ding *  I was afraid yg would get it right off because we've discussed M*A*S*H before.  Each time they exchange puns it hurts a little that you haven't seen an episode.

Josh, I would love to go to Africa too.  What part would you like to go to? Ethiopia would be my top choice, and also the north African countries (Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, etc).  But I think any part of Africa would be amazing.

Jess, I'll go with the speeding ticket being a lie.

1.  One of my criteria for my future husband was that they must have an easy-to-pronounce-and-spell last name, because I didn't like my maiden name.

2.  I have been to 3 Nine Inch Nails concerts.

3.  I have no interest whatsoever in anything Harry Potter-related.

ETA:  HH, wtf?  I thought you hated mangos.
