April Fooling Ought Eleven
“I would never lie. I willfully participate in a campaign of misinformation.”
-Fox Mulder: X Files
Once again it’s time for the Boo truth or not truth. This year I am covering books and bookish things so your 10 True or False questions will be of that nature. I also randomized the questions by randomly flipping a coin and using the standard “heads = yes” (or true) and “tails = no” (or false). Take a bit of time to wander over to random dot org because they have just about every fun permutation of randomizing one (or me) could think of. They even have different coins you can flip. I chose New Jersey because they didn’t have a Michigan so if you aren’t happy with the randomizing, blame Hakensack.
I will post the truths on April 15 because Tax day sort of amuses me for a reveal post.
1. At the writing of this post, I am half way through reading the Hugo winners.
2. TheMan and I own 5 dictionaries.
3. The oldest book we own is my Grandma’s pre WWII cookbook.
4. I won an ARC copy of John Scalzi’s Fuzzy Nation by submitting my mother’s age as my random number guess.
5. If you asked me what my all time favorite book is, I would tell you David Brin’s Startide Rising
6. My Favorite cookbook is the Joy of Cooking.
7. We own all the Terry Prachett books in hard cover.
8. We weren’t in the States when Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince was released but we bought it anyway and now have a European sized hardcover copy.
9. We have a signed copy of I Have No Mouth and I must Scream.
10. All our books are shelved neatly where they are supposed to go.
