There are certain things people will lie about. Sometimes you'll believe them but for the most part you'll know they are lying because, well, you've stretched the truth on these same subjects yourself.

Here's my Observational Lie List:

1. The daily commute." I can make it to work in under an hour." This for a 50 mile trek in rush hour speeds up to 40 miles per hour!
   
2. Weight. "I only gained a couple of pounds over the holidays." "I'm starting a new diet on Monday."
   
3. Gas mileage. "At highway speeds my SUV gets better mileage than my wife's Honda Civic."
   
4. Exercise. "I've been a member of the health club for years now."
   
5. Healthy eating habits. "I never eat fast food." "I often skip lunch or just have a small salad."
   
6. Children's behavior. "The kids are doing great. We've signed them up for all kinds of activities."
   
7. Age. Saturday (Feb 5) is my birthday so let's just leave this one alone!
