After my brother died we were asked by the pastor to tell him about my brother (he didn't know my brother). No one would start so I did...I started by saying he was my hero growing up, he saved me from bullies and got beat up because of it, how smart he was (too smart for his own good), that music was his life.....etc. Then it came to his wife. She said that they recently had put out an Obama yard sign. She also noted that no one would wave to my brother because "they knew he was a LIBERAL" and how deeply it hurt him. Which I found ironic since she told me that he thought all Republicans were cold hearted sub-humans (never mind that everyone in his family except for my other brother are "republicans"). She told me this the DAY he died by the way...but I digress...One day they came home and noticed his yard sign was stolen. According to my brothers lying wife my brother replied, "why I thought republicans were for personal property rights". He was all upset with humanity according to his lying wife. So he decided to get 5 more signs and put them in the yard, put spot lights on each and every one of the signs and also put a video camera out to catch who was taking the signs.
After we were finished telling about my brother I pulled my Mom aside and told her that she was full of shit, for one my brother was too lazy to put up five signs and actually take the time to put out spot lights and set up a video camera and number two, for being a software engineer he couldn't even hook up his own modem so I highly doubt he could set up the elaborate spectacle that she claims he did. It just wasn't him.
My other brother came over to me and said, why should it surprise you....she lies about everything. She lies when the truth would make a better story.
