RACHEL’S BELIE
A column by Rachel Gutish
I’m a very competitive person, and I have always loved games and competitions.
Even the ones I’m really bad at, like basketball and golf and complicated board
games and motocross racing. So, for this issue, I thought we could all play a little
game I invented called Rachel’s Believe it or Not. Here’s how it works: I will tell you
two stories from my past, and then I will fabricate one complete and total lie. It’s
up to all of you to guess which one of the outlandish tales is false.
The people who guess correctly get that warm fuzzy glow of superiority that
comes from win-ning. If you guess correctly AND can also tell Shan and I a story
that is true but as equally im-plausible as mine were, I will send you a nice note
and pair of old mismatched gloves or a smashed left radiator or something similar
since I can’t afford real prizes.
