I guess “I’ve never traveled abroad” is a lie, otherwise you couldn’t have Canada listed as a place where you’ve been
I thought the lie was you play the lottery. But Murphy is smarter than me–he picked up on it, not I.

An no I haven’t dipped into the wine I just misspelled liters out of stupidty. Drunkeness doesn’t occur till tonight!
Just for the record, the lie is that I regularly play the lottery. I haven’t bought a lottery ticket in so long, I can’t remember the last time I did.
I have never traveled abroad, as in beyond the U.S. and Canada.
I have performed on stage with a member of the Supremes: Mary Wilson. She performed at an AIDS benefit I attended here in D.C. years ago. During the show, she did a Supreme’s medley, singing Diane(a) Ross’ part herself. She asked for volunteers to come up and do the back-up. The next thing I knew, I was on the stage….
You just don’t seem like a lottery playing guy.
