| The Truth One of the strange things about me is that I like answering questionnaires. Actually, I’m probably not alone in that, seeing that most of us like talking about ourselves. A questionnaire is just my excuse for doing so. It’s not normal for me to talk a lot about myself - I need an excuse. And that’s why I have made a habit of answering Lilli’s Question of the Day. Sometimes I wonder whether it’s wise to be so free with information about myself. In these paranoic days of identity theft and the like, it may seem better to keep things hidden. And I do, to some extent. I don’t always answer with the truth, for instance. Humour is an excellent way of hiding the truth while keeping folks entertained. It’s also a way of disguising things that you’re not comfortable with being known completely. In vino veritas maybe, but many a true word said in jest. So you won’t be able to assume that, when I make a joke, I’m lying. It might be that I’m just telling the truth in an indirect way. The net result is that my answers to Lilli’s questions are a mixture of the truth and fabrications of one kind or another. I do try to be honest but there are times when it wouldn’t be a good idea. And, if anyone’s storing all my answers for some nefarious purpose, they’re wasting their time. They’re all a massive contradiction of each other. But I had fun telling them and I hope you do too.
