#3 for Isabella.

I’m too old to have gotten a Big Wheel. They came out when I was about ten. In the early 70s, seemingly every little kid had a Big Wheel.

You're right, 3 is my lie. I actually had a Big Wheel at my own house. I loved that thing! I loved the sound as it crunched over gravel. Perhaps that's why I still love to drive?

Music from my adolescence includes:

1. Ozzy Osbourne

2. The Smiths

3. Pink Floyd, especially Wish You Were Here

You might have been introduced to Pink Floyd later.

Wikipedia states that the Big Wheel was marketed to 8-10 year old kids. I don’t agree. A 8-10 year old would have been teased mercifully for riding a Big Wheel.

Wow -- I agree. I first rode my cousin's Big Wheel when I was no older than about five or six. I eventually got my own. In fact, it might have been my cousin's that I was allowed to keep. I don't think an 8 - 10 year old's knees would fit, even if they didn't get bullied.

3 is true. Wish You Were Here was huge when I was 12 - 14 with my friend CDW.

1. Most of my childhood memories involve winter and snow. I don't think summer existed.

2. I'd be happy if it snowed every day of the year.

3. I get an odd deja-vu, nostalgic, mystery-emotion when I see snow.

Nope. 1 is true. I'd say 90% of my memories are winter. I can drag out some summer memories when I try but by default I always remember snow.

My lie is 2. I'd like there to be snow about 350 days a year. The other 15 days can be raging thunderstorms.

No, my lie is number two. The cat hasn't had his daily barf, yet. (But it's only a matter of time.)

1. I ate a veggie burger for lunch.

2. When I was 18, my mom forced me to never see a fellow Aspie again because she believed he was gay when in fact he was not. He lived a sheltered life with his father, so I don't think my Aspie bro would have understood LGBT people very well.

3. My girlfriend has tonic-clonic seizures just like I do.

Sadly, I think 1 is your lie even though the other two are quite unfortunate.

:(
