Two truths and a lie

IT'S TIME FOR SFU

No lies
All truths

The answer is #3. Pi is an indefinite number. Pi is never an exact number. Just like the decimal for 2/3's is an indefinite number.

I'll keep that in mind, Professor Kortie. Thanks!

Computers was a minor.

My lie was actually the first one.

In your opinion, PJ, does autism research fail to reflect "functioning level?"

I find that much research in autism seems to see autism as being a monolithic thing, and not a Spectrum.


1. I heard "Sugar Sugar" on my way home from camp in 1969.

2. I learned about gravity through the song "Spinning Wheel" by Blood Sweat and Tears ("What goes up, must come down?)

3. I heard "Sunshine Superman" on the way home from camp in 1966.

That makes sense. Of course pi is indefinite, and 2/3 and 1/3 etc. You caught me too quickly with the oddball comment being first. I wanted to say you weren't an oddball, and I didn't read much after that.

1 is true for you because I googled through my detailed brain for specific clarity (the way you would) and saw that the song came in May, 1969. So it's likely you heard it at camp time.

2 is true because I remember that comment from you. Blood, Sweat and Tears are good. I'm learning about them slowly.

3 is therefore your lie.

Yep. #3 is my lie. I remember listening to the Association's "Along Comes Mary," at that time.

Oddly, they used to play "Sunshine Superman" quite frequently two years later, in 1968---even though it's a 1966 song.

Mary is a good name. It's common in my family and loved ones.

1. The first song I remember in my life is Morning has Broken (Cat Stevens)

2. The first music I remember having on vinyl was Simon and Garfunkel's Greatest Hits when I was four. I had heard Bridge over Troubled Water (sail on Silvergirl) on the radio and I wanted it.

3. The saddest song I heard today was by Jim Croce.

I believe the Lie is #1. You probably remember some late 60's songs, like I remember some early 60's songs. For example, I remember "Sherry," by the Four Seasons, which came out when I was 1 year old.

1. The first song I really liked was "Hanky Panky" by Tommy James and the Shondells. My brother used to play it constantly on the record player he got for Christmas

2. The first song I sort of understood was "Georgy Girl" by the Seekers. It was a big hit at the time my parents went on vacation, and I was left with a babysitter.

3. The first song my mother picked me up and danced with me with was "Dawn" by the Four Seasons.

"Bad Bad Leroy Brown" was the most popular song at camp when I was 12.

1 is true
I'm sure there were other songs I heard before Morning Has Broken, but that's the first one where I have a vivid memory and synaesthesia. I thought it meant the morning had actually broken (in parts) and I didn't understand how that could happen.

I was three.


2 is true of course

3 is my lie. I did hear sad Jim Croce songs but there was a Randy Newman song that was more upsetting to me. I'm trying to remember what it was called.

Short People?

No, that's not sad.

I thought it was rather sad, in a way, even though it was supposed to be a funny song.

1. The first 1950's song I liked was "Baby, oh Baby," by the Shells.

2. I first heard this song on a K-Tel commercial. This set in motion my doo-wopp obsession.

3. I knew, in the 1970s, that Rock-n-Roll actually started in the 1940s.
