I skipped all the comments to make sure you haven't already announced the truth or lie, and I didn't want to be influenced by others. So, I'm going to guess you played a tiny trick on us and listed one item in #1 that's false -- everything else would be truthful. So the #1 thing I think you haven't done is: obituary writer.<br /><br />Thanks for the list of blogs I can now go explore. That's one of the best parts of the award process. <br /><br /><a href="http://patriciastoltey.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Patricia</a>Patricia Stolteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17192369425956406122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263129748509629442.post-4763679210634190512010-08-09T16:57:22.503+02:002010-08-09T16:57:22.503+02:00I'm probably way off, but I just can't pic...I'm probably way off, but I just can't picture you doing #7.Alex J.
