    Well, statistics may not always be accurate, but you can always count on somebody quoting them. People fake their death all the time as well, or collect money on someone who never even existed. A great many people manage to get out of paying taxes. But, like Death and Taxes, Statistics will always be with us. Perhaps "none of the above in and of itself?"
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    2 truths and a lie, then.

    Something really shallow, for a change.

    1) I have a disgusting-looking scar right on my elbow that looks like acid was dropped on it.

    2) I have no patience for people in front of me who walks as though anytime they could step on an immortal insect.

    3) I have seen half of all the posts of "Uncle" Pendragon.

    Mark Twain defined three kinds of lies: "Lies, damn lies, and statistics." Death and taxes, of course, are the universe's constants. So the answer would be three, both for mine, and for Lain.

    What do you mean? That I would pick the same answer as you have?

    My apologies, Lain -- I meant that I suspected your third statement to be the lie.

    I think that second one is a lie? Because, you can have a fat nose...and you can see dead people in dreams.

    ~By the way, you can't post a "truth and a lie" before the person who has already posted one confirms that you are wrong...

    Good One!

    Ooops! My bad.. So was I wrong?
    And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
    Dropping from the veils of the mourning to where the cricket sings;
    There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
    And evening full of the linnet's wings.
