Yeah I wondered about that too. Of course, two part statements like that will be disallowed if one part is true, but the other isn't. We've got to follow some rules here people!
1. I had surgery as a kid because I had been stuffing lint up my nose for several weeks.
2. My great grandfather was a bank robber.

1. My brain is mush after spending a week with the smart kids at SXSW Interactive.

1. I need a week in one of those detox/healthful spa/retreats where they wake you up at six and you hike then meditate with monks before your yougurt and endive, then spa stuff, repeat.
1. I lived in a house once owned by the son of a President (of the USA), and the father of a President.

1. I once turned down an invitation for a threesome
2. I have eleven toenails, but only ten toes

gaspode - never been over the Queensboro Bridge
Trisha - never been to me
iconomy - didn't work in the Playboy Club
danf - Woody never did that
brina - didn't stuff lint
redvixen - was born with 10 fingers
jokeefe - not hit on by Black Flag member
dg - totally did the threesome
dg is right - my family doesn't own that house. We did own a villa in Italy but my aunts convinced my father to sell it before I ever had a chance to visit it. It's a hotel now.
