SEE UPDATE AT THE END OF THE POST
While most OSers have shared interesting details about themselves and their life experience, some of the more interesting aspects are kept from public view.
My open call to all of you who read are to participate in a fairly well known ice breaker for teams. Write down two truths about yourself and one lie that no one in the group knows. It opens up knowledge about who we are and perhaps a deeper view inside of us.
To play: Reveal two truths and a lie unknown to OS posters. Commenters guess which are true and which is false. Good luck to all.
Here are mine:
I had breakfast with Bill Clinton
I have climbed Mt. Katahdin
I weighed 125 pounds until I was 29 years old.
UPDATE: I will provide my answers tomorrow morning Eastern Time in a NEW POST
I would like to post links to other Two Truths and Lie posts in the same post. Please send me a link to your post via PM.
You can post solutions to your posts anytime you'd like. Thanks to all who posted and all who commented.

2-3: Truth
Just had to share.
Clinton would have stepped up to the podium and with his pointer finger curled in he would have shook his hand at us all and said " I did not have breakfast with a sheepdog".
I just realized that means it had to be the weight.
I am a transvestite.
I eat no veggies, ever.
I am childless and bitter.

dharma -- I was holding out for 100 rates. I will post the true answer before 10:53 ET tomorrow.
ok, damnit, I'll play.....
your weight....yep, that's it...!
(and how WAS breakfast with my bill?)
Owl -- I am approximately 6'0" tall. I was the same height at at 29.
2. Truth...maybe. Although I don't knkow where this mountain is, I don't think many people would lie about mountain climbing, if mountain climbing is their bliss.
3. I think this is the lie--it's so universal. Or maybe that's what you want me to think.
Maybe this needs to be rethought...
Will you post the answer at some point?
2) I'm close to my family.
3) My lover smells like burnt almonds in chocolate.
Everyone had breakfast with Bill @ McDonald's when he was running.
So, that leaves #3. I guess...
Rated & Cheers!
If you were 125 lbs, and 6' tall, you would be OEStringbean.

I lived in Maine for 22 years.
Ronald Reagan was president when I was 29.
I will post the answers in a new post tomorrow morning.
No. 2 is plausible ... oh hell. All three are plausible. I'm going to guess No. 1.
Rated, damn your eyes.
oh, and I'm going to say #3 - I've never been svelte, myself, but the last time I was 125 pounds was junior high
But, um....I'm gonna go with...uh...lesseeeee.....#3.
For #1, all it takes is money or the willingness to give him a blowjob (and if I'm short on the first, I'll gladly take the second). #2 just sounds cool, so I want it to be true. I don't want it to be #3.
Thanks for the fun!
I don't think you have eaten breakfast with Bill Clinton. I see no reason for you to lie about your weight, and since that mountain is such a specific, odd mountain to pick, I believe that one.
