Part of the fun of the event will be participating ina game called
"Two Truths and a Lie"

If you plan to attend, please include with your response three (3) facts about yourself, two of which are true and one false.  For example:

   My hair was almost to my waist in high school.
   I talked to Cher in an airport coffee shop.
   I speak 4 languages.

Obviously, the more outrageous the truths about you, the harder it is for your colleagues to pick out the lie.  This is loads of fun.  Start working on your list now.

Include your list with your RSVP and be sure to tell Jane which one is a lie.

Prizes will be awarded to the ones that detect the most lies.
