#2 is correct. They would never even have conceived of me playing the "lead" in anything. I had no singing voice, and I was fat. I also was messy and irresponsible.

I was relegated to the chorus. It's still one of my all-time favorite plays.

I fell in love with a 38-year-old lesbian when I was 19. She was a poet, as was I. I wrote a poem to her known as the "Duchess Lady." (The Dutchess was a lesbian bar in Greenwich Village, which she frequently patronized. I spelled it wrong in the poem because---well---I spelled it wrong LOL). I don't have the poem now. I thought we can be partners in creativity, and partners in other things.

Well your duchess served you well, in terms of creativity. That can never be lost.
Do you like banana splits? I'll have to try one.
I can't sing either but I like your self-effacing attitude. It's really endearing :)

1. I've seen Les Misérables on stage several times and it always makes me cry
2. Anthony Quinn walked off stage to give me the carnation from his cap, during a production of Zorba the Greek.
He said that I looked sad.
3. I have issues with South Pacific (the musical, not the region).

I don't like banana splits----because they always have nuts in them. And I hate nuts (though I like people nuts sometimes!)

I never got a good mark for "notebook." I always got "unsatisfactory," or "needs improvement." I was really a sloppy kid LOL

I would say you love South Pacific without hesitation--especially the blues music. So, #3 is a lie.

If there ever was a tearjerker--it was a movie called "Brian's Song." It's about the friendship between a star football player (who was black) and a less "starry" football player (who was white). The white guy helped the black guy rehab after a serious knee injury. But then the white guy developed cancer and passed away.

1. I had sex in broad daylight in Central Park.

2. I met a blonde girl in a bar when I was 21, and we went on to have a hot and heavy sexual relationship.

3. My girlfriend got drunk when I was 18, and she called everybody the "N-word" on the subway as it was passing through Harlem.

Right. I do like South Pacific and #3 was my lie.
You like "people nuts" ? If that's a bi reference good for you, but I think I may have misunderstood that comment. :D
That movie sounds terribly tear-jerking. Is it American?

NOOOOOOO NOT 3. Heaven help me. Not 3. (I mean I hope it's not true).

Nope. I'm totally straight. I mean "nuts" as in "amiably crazy." Like "kooky."

Yep. "Brian's Song" is American. It was done in 1971.

I used to also cry at the end of "The Wizard of Oz." It was a tradition for all of us in the family (my older brother didn't participate too much) to have TV dinners and to watch "The Wizard of Oz."

The answer is #2, though I wish it wasn't. We actually met in the bar, and she was driving me to her house in New Jersey. But she changed her mind about me, and dropped me off at the PATH train station in Jersey City, NJ.

We talked quite a bit on the phone for about two weeks. We even had "phone sex." But she lost interest because she was a college student, and I hadn't gone to college yet. She was a chubby girl. But had beautiful blonde hair. And she was intelligent, too.

Unfortunately, #3 did happen. But, fortunately, I was able to defuse the situation by referring to the fact that she was crazy. She deserved to be embarrassed.

#1 happened as well. It was sort of anti-climactic. I didn't feel all that great. I felt sort of forced, because she wanted public attention.

1. I know a murderer.
2. I overdosed on an airplane when I was five.
3. Someone literally saved my life one night.

I have a distinct feeling the answer is #2.

I believe #1 and #3 have at least a peripheral relationship with the psychopath.

Now I REALLY know why that Elton John song we made out to has such meaning to you.

It is #2!! ! I did overdose on an airplane, but I was 4. I ate an entire bottle of iron supplements while my parents were asleep.
I needed my stomach pumped and almost died.

1 and 3 are correct.

My life is just that crazy.

You’re one of those who have nine lives to live.....

1. My friend got falsely arrested for obscenity at a beach in the early 80s.

2. This same friend was good friends with one of the doo-wop Teenagers who had Frankie Lymon as the lead singer.

3. I shook hands with Joe Franklin, the talk show host.

I don't know Frankie Lymon or Joe Franklin (or for that matter, any of those hip American late night hosts whose names I don't know -- except Letterman or Carson)...

but..

I will pick 3

The answer is #2. My friend offended this guy so bad that the guy kicked my friend in the face in the middle of Washington Square Park.

His obscenity case was quickly dismissed. It was a false arrest. The cops thought he was gay for some reason.

I shook hands with Joe Franklin about 2000. He was very old then. He didn’t seem too thrilled.

Wow... you all have led some interesting lives, and here I struggle to scrape 3 statements to put together.
