True? I wasn't but maybe you were.

"I once had a pet iguana." - False. I have had many types of pets, but not an iguana.

I always get a flu shot.

True...I was on the dating game. A playboy playmate of the year was the female contestant.
I have been to 100,000' in a helium balloon.

I'll say false. I believe helium balloons that go that high are unmanned.

I have had an out-of-body experience.

True. So have I. But as soon as the element of fear entered my mind, I was back in my body again.

I've spent the night in a royal palace before.

There have been numerous balloon ascensions with humans to 100,000'+ none of them by me.

I took ballet lessons as a child.

True, on several occasions as a child--I once had a BFF who was a princess.
They occupied a large wing since the main palace complex was reserved for sightseers.

True for your ballet lessons, or else you wanted to take them.

I was bitten by a baby brown bear in Yosemite Park.

True?

"I took ballet lessons as a child." - False- I took tap and jazz. Did I want to take ballet? Yes, but didn't feel like I was petite enough.

I once spoke to Burgess Meredith on the phone when he was alive.

True that you did because who would think to make that up? [:D]

I didn't want to take ballet but my girlfriend dragged me to her ballet class once and I made a fool of myself in front of everybody not knowing what the hell I was doing. [&o]

It could go either way with the bear youngster. He ambled onto the road from out of the forest while we were snapping pictures.
My dad told me not to move. Easy not to since I was petrified. This juvenile-sized bear came up to about my upper thigh. He chomped on the bottom of my dress as it was faintly fluttering in the breeze, then tugged on it a couple of times. Amazingly, it didn't tear and he finally let go so I could hightail it out of there back into the car. Thank goodness Mama Bear was nowhere in sight and never came upon the scene charging at us.
So technically, my dress got bitten, not my person.

I went on tour with the opening band for ZZTop. [:'(]




MysticFireTopaz -> RE: True or False (9/27/2014 10:06:17 AM)

True?

"I once spoke to Burgess Meredith on the phone when he was alive." - True. One of my early jobs was at a high-end kitchen and bathroom supply company in Santa Monica, CA. One of my duties was relieving the switchboard operator when she went to lunch. This was back before voicemail was used. One day a man called for my boss, Alice. Alice was at lunch, so I took messages for her. Burgess Meredith called, complaining about his bill. He also said, "Tell Alice the customer isn't always wrong!" Alice rolled her eyes and shook her head when I gave her the message.

I was working in downtown Fort Worth in March, 2000. Luckily, I left early for a doctor's appointment. The building I worked in sustained damage when a tornado hit one afternoon.

Lucky you for getting fortuitously spared, but I hope nobody else sustained injuries. It must have been a scary event!

False--Even at 19 I had enough sense not to run off with the drummer of the opening band. Besides, it was the lead singer I was dating, and this guy was poaching. [>:]

I was in an hi-rise office building in Oakland CA when an earthquake struck.

True?

"I was working in downtown Fort Worth in March, 2000. Luckily, I left early for a doctor's appointment. The building I worked in sustained damage when a tornado hit one afternoon." - This one is false. It happened to a friend of mine, though. I was so glad he got out of there before his place of employment was struck. As for me, I worked in northeast Dallas at the time. My normally one-hour commute was three hours in torrential rain, but my home and place of employment were fine.

T or F? I was 2.5 miles from the epicenter of the Northridge quake when it hit.

Yes, this is true, and it was the eeriest feeling being in a tall swaying building where your footing isn't firmly grounded.
When I lived in Vallejo and Monterey Hills, California as a young girl, I had no memory of any earthquake tremors during that 3-year period.

True for yours, as long as you don't get nit-picky on the exact details. [&:]
(You got me on the tornado one! I was convinced that was true.)




MysticFireTopaz -> RE: True or False (9/28/2014 5:42:53 PM)

True, I was 2.5 miles from the Epicenter of the Northridge quake when it hit. Never been so terrified in my life!

I have heard being in high rises is terrifying, too. I was on the 4th floor of a 32-story building when one hit, but that one was not so severe, plus I was on a lower floor.

T or F: Three of my former co-workers were murdered.

I think the scariest part is having nowhere to run for cover since everything's shaking and there's no terra firma. I was on the 8th floor, which was about the middle, and not too many flights of stairs to exit the building.

OMG, I hope not, so False. Hopefully this didn't occur during the same incident. It would still be strange to have 3 co-workers from different workplaces during your life end up getting murdered.

There is an island named Isla Mujeres off the Yucatan Peninsula near Cancun, Mexico. (This is a fact.) There is a legend that women who want to get pregnant will become fertile once visiting this island. (True legend)
I became pregnant shortly after setting foot on this island and swimming in its beaches. True or False?




MysticFireTopaz -> RE: True or False (10/4/2014 7:40:07 AM)

True?

"T or F: Three of my former co-workers were murdered." - Sadly, this is true. In the early 80's, when I worked in Orange County, one of my coworkers became involved in a love triangle and ended up getting shot. Then, when I worked in downtown Los Angeles in the mid-eighties, my coworker's car broke down in a bad part of town, and he didn't make it out of there alive. The last one was in the late 80's. One of my coworkers was very meddlesome and stuck her nose in her neighbors' marriage. The husband was mentally unbalanced, couldn't handle it, and murdered her. While she was annoying, she didn't deserve to die. At work, we all just avoided her as much as possible. It was a shame that guy couldn't do the same.

T or F? I once worked as an exotic dancer.

You said you took tap and jazz, so you're inclined toward music and dance; however, I'll say False.

Mine is not true in that I didn't become pregnant again until over 7 years afterwards! Delayed reaction-response? :p

How sad about your co-workers. I'm very sorry to hear of these tragedies.

I've only known one person who was murdered and that was one of my sisters-in-law. More than 20 years later, her case remains unsolved. True or False? (either statement)

[Edited to correct #years]




MysticFireTopaz -> RE: True or False (10/5/2014 12:01:23 PM)

True for the first statement and false for the second?

"You said you took tap and jazz, so you're inclined toward music and dance; however, I'll say False." Correct, this is false. At one time in my early twenties, I was offered a job as an exotic dancer, but felt the costume was "overexposed." Instead, I did a couple of stints as a "Dance Hostess." With that job, you could be fully clothed, wear what you wanted (within rules) and got paid to dance with the male patrons. Or, they could pay to have you watch TV with them, play pool with them, or talk to them. Easy work and good money, but it grew very tiresome.

T or F: I was born on Thanksgiving Day.

Both True actually, and it's been over 20 years. She was found naked out in the woods, shot execution-style. It may have been drug-related, so no impetus or not enough clues for the detectives to bother solving her murder.

Oh Lord, I remember those cocktail waitressing days during my college years.... (Couldn't stand those no-tipping suckers, usually the ones who expect the most special treatment, too.)
I'm going to say True, in that you are a November baby with topaz as your birthstone. But you don't get to celebrate your birthday on Thanksgiving every year. Probably just as well--too much work!

True or False: Later on I worked my way up to bartender.




MysticFireTopaz -> RE: True or False (10/8/2014 9:09:13 PM)

True?

"T or F: I was born on Thanksgiving Day." - Correct, this is true.

T or F? I dated one of my college professors.
