It appears that this weeks tale was a little more difficult, I believe that some of the confusion was my fault due to changing from our original format.
I love the way you have been going through the scenarios and explaining your answers, I am honored with your comments and have found myself almost spilling the beans when replying to you.
Melissa was an excellent band member and did in fact play the clarinet, there were a lot of competitions, performances, awards, and pranks but Shannon was never in the band.
The girls have been roommates for years, they do the things young women do such as enjoy entertainment, drinking, and dining, Melissa is really known to pick up the check before anyone else, and would die of embarrassment if a bill was left on the table, if one was run out on she (like her mother) would drive 100 miles to make it right, so to my knowledge this has never happened.
The Evil Ice Cream Man is in fact the truth, he lives and still roams in the minds of Melissa and Shannon, Tim was used for bait a short time but only until Cindy caught on, so with this said wasn't too costly for the girls, but to this day they still talk about stalking The Evil Ice Cream Man.
Lisa was the first to call this one saying that she could see two curious girls doing this, Abby was next remembering being a teenager and seeing the possibility of using a brother as bait as truthful, Bijoux said that she and her friends concocting evil stories made this one believable.
With that said I have added these three ladies blogs to the True Winners section, Thank you to everyone who commented, your participation is amazing and I appreciate you all.
Maybe I'll make it into the True Winners section next time.
ReplyDeleteI have faith Stephen, it wouldn't surprise me to see everyone of you there.
DeleteWhat fun! Only three winners which makes it even more amazing that it was the ice cream man and girls using your son for bate. Where do kids come up with these things? I can only image your and your wife's reaction when you found out. How long afterward was that?
ReplyDeleteHi Jean, Cindy actually caught on to this one quickly, which we sat the girls down and talked with them about this man, As you know all the talk fell on deaf ears and the only loser was Tim with the free ice cream ha ha
DeleteAnd the little guy wasn't traumatized by the whole thing?
ReplyDeleteGood morning Delores, the only thing that bothered Tim was missing out on the ice cream.
DeleteWow! I'm honored to be a True Wnner! And I think I would have had fun with Melissa and Shannon!
ReplyDeleteHey Bijoux, you would have had fun with the girls, we still get a lot of laughs when they are around.
DeleteThat was a tough one.
ReplyDeleteGood morning Joe, Cindy told me the same thing, she read it and said that had she not known the answer that she would have picked the restaurant.
DeleteJust like normal kids - a person never knows what they are truly capable of, Ha. Ha.
ReplyDeleteYou said that right Lady, they do keep us guessing ha ha
DeleteWhen I read about the Evil Ice Cream Man I immediately pictured Stephen King at his computer writing another book.
ReplyDeleteOh man that does sound like a Stephen King title.
DeleteI would never make a detective... but it was a hard one this time.
ReplyDeleteHello Valerie, I suppose this just shows truth is stranger than fiction, I bet your detective skills are just fine.
DeleteAHA! Thought so! They seem like a couple of fun girls I would've liked to hang out with. That's why I figured they would not have gotten kicked out of band or skipped out on a restaurant bill. But use little Timmy as bait for crime bustin' - you betcha! Very fun, Jimmy!
ReplyDeleteAbby, you sure nailed it didn't you, glad you enjoyed it Lady.
DeleteHum, since I was always the baby, wonder if my brothers ever used me for bait? You did well to steer most of us wrong. Well done.
ReplyDeleteHi Patti, I was the big brother so with that said I have a feeling your brothers just may have....it happens ha ha.
DeleteNot sure how much steering I did, just had fun with it, Thank you so much.
I knew it! Haha. Thanks for letting me in the winner section!
ReplyDeleteI still think Ice cream trucks are creepy.
Lisa
Hi Lisa, you were the first one to figure it out, glad to have you join in, hopefully the next one wont be too creepy ha ha
DeleteI wonder if he had a bike in the truck to ride himself...like if he parked the truck overnight someplace near where he lived and he rode the bike between the truck and his apartment.
ReplyDeleteJean, this man actually had about five kids of his own, I tried telling the girls this only to get the question "where do you think he got all those kids from?" I know we had already had "the talk" with Melissa.
DeleteI guess Timmy was the one who got the best of this exercise!
ReplyDeleteYes Inger, Timmy still laughs about that, says that he got to ride around with the girls and got free ice cream too.
DeleteI really thought it would be the restaurant one, because I can see that happening in my family.
ReplyDeleteThat is what Cindy said too, if she hadn't known the truth she would have picked the restaurant.
