    I'll take #2 because it could be somebody else who owned the peacocks.

    Well done Pendragon.
    You've got a keen eye for details. You're right about the description of rabbits. I just made it up. I've never kept any rabbit as a pet.

    papayahead- My grandma really had a pair of peacocks.

    1. One thing I simply cannot stand is burning scented candles.

    2. I actually own a book from the 1800's, a book called The Best of Shakespeare.

    3. From where I live, two hours drive can put in in four different states.

    I'll say #2.

    Taliesin the crow boy wins. I usually keep a candle of some sort burning as long as I am awake. I do own that book, which is much the worse for wear, and any perusal of a map of Southwest Virginia, finding my home town of Marion will bear out the claim in #3

    Taliesin's turn

    Oh, bugger.

    1. Despite being 21 years old, I don't have a drivers license and can't drive
    2. I am rather active in the local anti-nuclear-pro-renewable energy thingy.
    3. I have quite a liking for the game of go/baduk/weiqi.

    I kinda think Robin is correct but I'll pick #1.

    I'll take 3 so that we have all bases covered, but I agree with Robin that #1 is most likely.

    As it turns out, I'm a lousy liar.
    Yes, it's number 2 that's wrong, I am quite a supporter for nuclear energy now, seeing that traditional non-renewable energy sources should begin to cease (since we seem to be running out a bit and pollution is quite a nasty piece of work)and that nuclear energy should fill the void. Renewable energy is nice, but I don't think it could cover the majority of our energetic needs before around 2050.

    As for driving, I am thinking that maybe I should get those licenses in near future as it might come rather handy, however, I don't feel any particular need for the knowledge of how to drive a car.

    And go is of course a wonderful game, the intellectual game par excellence (it's better than chess!), so of course I like it.

    Robins turn.

    Since Robin is not coming back...

    By the time I was 15, I had already:

    - used rifle on hunting trips.

    - caught my own fish on fishing trips.

    - killed chicken from our own coop (to be consumed at home).

    I'm sure the first is real... I've chosen the second however it my be the third that is the lie...
    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?

    Three, because I've seen chickens killed and it's gross.
