Four truths and a lie: Wiggly Concert edition
It wasn't quite as good as Kanye in '04 (back before his head swelled up with fame), but the Wiggles' concert rocked - as expected. What I didn't expect was for four of the following five things to have happened while I was at the show. But indeed, four of them did. One of them, however, is an outright lie. And not like a Bill Clinton, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" lie. I'm talking about a total, complete, no-room-for-misinterpretation lie. Can you guess which one it is?
- I pointed my fingers and did the twist.
- I got goose bumps when I heard the first few bars of "Big Red Car."
- I was pleased with the performance of the new yellow Wiggle, Sam Moran.
- I high-fived the strangers sitting next to us when Captain Feathersword took the stage for the first time.
- Murray, the red Wiggle, waved at me when he walked around the crowd.
Good luck, my internet friends.

Wow that’s a tuff one.
They are all so believable. :) I’m going to say "1. I pointed my fingers and did the twist." is the lie.

I'm stumped, but I'm voting for 4. Even though I can totally believe that it's true.

Considering your total and furious dedication to
the bandThe Boy's childhood experience, I highly doubt that this new Wiggle you speak of lived up to your stringent requirements of acceptable Wiggleability so swiftly.Number 3 it is.
Sarah said:
I vote for 4. I think you're too introverted to touch strangers.
I see you twisting and pointing to get the Boy to do the same thing.
Am I right? What do I win?

I vote for #4, not because I don't believe you high fived strangers, but because "Captain Feathersword" sounds fake.
Becky said:
i'm gonna go with 4, because none of the others require direct contact with others. since you claim to never talk, i am using that logic to guide my decision.
is it pronounced "feathers word" or "feather sword"?

I'm going with numero cuatro also, because any self-respecting Captain Feathersword fan would have used his personal feathersword to poke and tickle the person next to them.
Bill Clinton tried to use that as a defense, that he was just a Captain fan using his Feathersword for good.
I said:
I'm not giving away the answer here or anything, but I'm finding it funny that nobody seems to have any doubt that #2 really happened.
And Becky, it's "Feather-sword." It's a sword made of feathers that he uses to tickle -- well, never mind.

Personally, I'm a 'Fruit Salad Yummy Yummy' kind of gal. Big Red Car has too many repetitive hand movements and it makes me tired.
Rhonda said:
This is a hard one. My first guess would be #2, because why would you get goosebumps over that particular song when there are so many other, better song? But then, maybe it was cold in there and it was just a coincedence. And I also find #4 hard to believe, because personally I find Captain Idiotsword to be so annoying. Hmmm....I guess I will go with #4.

I don't know if it is truly a lie, but I'll go with #5, because Murray was actually waving at the guy behind you.

#1, why are you dancing the twist at a Wiggles concert? Shouldn't you be dancing the, uh, Wiggle or something?
Who decorates those stages? I want my room to look like that!

#1. but i realize that it's going to be hard to prove i didn't read the most recent post first. so you're just going to have to believe me because you know how much i hate cheaters.
you just don't seem like the more-than-toe-tapping-dancer type.
