Funny story about that last post.

When I do the "Four Truths and a Lie" posts, I try to phrase the lie so that someone with only blog-knowledge of me might be able to realize the story is false. For example, let's say I told a story about how the boy went around our yard, picked all the dandelions, bundled them all together, and gave a "flower" bouquet to the wife. Many readers will know that this is OBVIOUSLY a lie, because my lawn does not have dandelions. (With that particular example, I'd have permanently banned anyone who DIDN'T guess that story as a lie, just for entertaining the thought that my yard might have dandelions.)

People who know me well in real life might have known that there's no way I'd wait that long in line to see Bob the Builder, but with only blog-knowledge of me, there's really no reason why you should have known that. See, when I originally wrote the post, I had text in there about how I was playing peek-a-boo with the not-so-cute baby girl. Before I published the post, I deleted that part, because I thought it would make it too obvious that #3 was fake. I had intended to replace that detail with some other, slightly less obvious fake details. But then I forgot to do so. And by the time I realized my error the next morning, some people had already started guessing, so I didn't think it would be fair to change the post.

I was prepared to declare all of you winners because the contest wasn't fair, but then newcomer Heffalump (welcome!) swooped in at the 11th hour and guessed the right answer. So though I'm sure you're all winners at something, Heffalump is the only winner of "Four Truths and a Lie: Bob the Builder Edition."
