Oooh, they give you a separate ID thing. okay well that makes sense.

Separate? It's not Separate...you use your normal military ID card. You get a military ID card when you're in the service. How do you suppose they know who to let on base?

It's ok...I am satisfied knowing that he has to live with his 4 to 4.5 inch penis for the rest of his life...

What kind of life would that be?

One of my ancestors' relative fought along side Tipu Sultan.
I made two operating systems, one in assembly, and the other a mixture of assembly and C, when I was 12 years old.
My ancestors are from Pakistan.

Good luck guessing which one is false :wink:

That's what I'm thinking but I expect the correct answer is one or three...

I'm guessing 1 & 2 are true.
 
  • #71
I think 2 is true. 3 seems a bit weird, and for 1 I have no clue who that person is. So I will go with 3 as the false one.

Evo is correct. I have never met comedian Martin Mull.

I met John Candy when he was a member of Second City which performed at my college in the 1970's, and I met Joe Piscopo when visiting a friend who did makeup at NBC in NY.
