    I'll go with 2 1/2.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?

    Ha! Ha! Ha! There is no possibility for 2 1/2.

    Well, to end the wait...
    1. I really know five languages.
    2. I know a Lit-netter as we are family members.
    and
    3. I like writing poetry very much.
    Sooooooo...

    Scheherazade is right. Now your turn.

    Yay!

    Here we go:

    - I love lentil soup.

    - Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf is my favorite book.

    - I believe Superman is the superhero.

    There is no self-respecting literary forum in the English speaking world that taut Mrs Dalloway as her favorite novel. Ms. Scheherazade lies when she doth write numero dos!

    I think it is almost impossible that your love for Mrs Dalloway and hatred of Superman in lentil soup would have changed so, I guess it would be ...2?
    Damn, I suck at them numbers thingies.
    If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.

    How transparent I am!

    Everyone has guessed correctly that Mrs Dalloway is not my favorite novel.

    Since The Comedian was the first one who came up with the correct answer, I think it is his turn to lie to us.

    Yay!

    Alright two of these statements are true and one is an outright lie! Common thread: the (former) romantic life of The Comedian

    1. One of my former girlfriends was finalist in the Miss America pageant.

    2. One of my former girlfriends had a minor role in a recent superhero movie.

    3. One of my former girlfriends was imprisoned for being an international spy.

    I will go for number 2; I have a feeling that 1 and 3 are correct (though I am too lazy to run a search).

    Numbers 1 & 3 are both true. Number 2 is the lie, which means that Scheherazade is up again.
