    Default The Person Below Me...

    SO, here is a fun game that will let us learn more about each other and maybe get some of the new members to post about themselves too! Here is how this game works:

    The Person above is going to make a true or false statement about the person below them.


    Example: BD Says..."The Person Below Me (TPBM) speaks two different languages.

    OT member 'X' says... "True, I speak French and English." and then 'X' says "TPBM is scared to fly"

    OT member 'Y' says... "False, I am actually a pilot and fly about three times a week." and then says "TPBM...etc.."

    Get the idea? Ok, here we go.....

    TPBM has lived in more than three countries.

    Cheers,
    BD

    Big False one there....the only work I get around to is gardening, cooking, laundry....(and gardening really isn't work)...I'm a home body now thanks to the generous VA. lol I'm a disabled veteran...no I wasn't in any wars, we mowed alot of grass in between our regular jobs. I have been into orchids for over a year now, seriously since this January and now have a nicely growing collection. Glad to have you all to bug with questions and to show my 'chids to when they bloom so pretty.
    Okay....the TPBM drives a Cadillac Deville. : 0)

    False. I bought my first orchid right after my dog died because it cheered me up some to have something nice to look at and take care of. TPBM is a great snow skier.

    False: I have never skied in my life, although I would really love to learn how. I have even been to some great ski resorts, but only ever in the summer for walking and sight seeing.

    TPBM has had their appendix removed

    Not true. I had shoulder surgery because I dislocated my right shoulder while body surfing in Hawaii during the winter of 2001. Almost drowned. But all of my parts are still with me.

    TPBM dances naked under the full moon! (hehehehehehe)
