756.0. "Fill In The Blanks _______" by HILL16::BURNS (A fool and his money are some Party) Fri May 11 1990 08:36

    
    	The Irish Voice is running a fun contest, and giving away free tickets
    	to a concert or something like that to the winner. The contest is to 
        provide the THIRD biggest lie heard in the Irish sections of New York.
        The "Irish Voice" claims to already know what the FIRST and SECOND
        most frequently heard lies are, so lets see what we can come up
    	with ourselves .....   :-)
    
    
    	According to the Irsh Voice the 2 most common "lies" are ........
    
    	1. Were only going out for one drink !!!
    
    	2. I'm only over here for the weekend !!!
    
    
	Now its your turn to provide the data for Lie #3    :-)
