I use this one:
Tell a friend or re...Smooth, Gary! I use this one:<br /><br />Tell a friend or relative (let's use Sarah in this example) about your current situation with forgetting Not Russ' real name. Invite her over with the plan to strike up a conversation with Not Russ. INTENTIONALLY "forget" to introduce them. Then -- and here's the kicker -- after the conversation has been going on for a few minutes, que Sarah to say, "Oh goodness! I don't think we've met! I'm Sarah". Then at the same time, you mumble something like, "Heaven's me! Where are my manners! I can't believe ---" While you're busy faking embarrasment, Not Russ will try to ease the tension by saying, "And I'm John". <br /><br />Works like a charm :)Whitneyhttp://www.theinkwell.menoreply@blogger.com
