wiz, Sometimes they give you credit for being willing to spin a good yarn to impress them, even when they know you're so full of crap that your eyes are brown. At Penn, I tried to pass myself off as a relative of the Michael Burke who had been a star rower at Penn and was, at that time, President of CBS. I don't think any girl actually believed me. But then, most of the girls were not really CIA agents who wanted one last fling before going undercover, either. Ah, Smokey Joe's. <g> I did catch the bartender lying about what a great place kicker he was. The next week he was on Monday Night Football kicking five field goals for the Falcons against the Rams. <G> True story, and I am glad I didn't call him on it.
