Just one: monogamy. But I've got over that lie ten years ago and have been making up for loss time.

I've fallen for College, War, and Voting. I have NOT fallen for houseownership...yet.

I fell for college and homeownership.

Homeownership: Not yet, but it's coming. I don't think people fall for this so much as they're forced into it by the wife.

College: With scholarships and community college, this can still be done affordably. Left college with a good degree at a good school loan free.

War: I think all of us fell for it after 9/11, but that's mostly because of the "weapons of mass destruction" lies.

Voting: I refuse to vote until the two party system is abolished. I will not drive over there and wait in line to pick between two different styles of shit. If votor turnout gets low enough, perhaps honest people will start running under their own beliefs instead of their parties' beliefs and the funders wish list.

Community college is like a disco with books. "Give me five dollars so I can get my learn on!"
