My Life? I Spent 40 Years as a Night Watchman at a Cranberry Silo. The End.

I thought the point of RT's post was that her friend was a good storyteller because, using the strict definition of "embellish" - i.e., to make up facts to add to the story - her friend did not embellish. Instead, he stuck to the actual facts, but told them in a way that was more interesting than a simple chronological recitation of events. In fact, I though RT's whole point was to contrast her friend, who used actual facts and therefore did not embellish, with your friend, who made shit up because life was not otherwise sufficiently interesting. In other words, I was under the impression that using the word "embellish" as it is actually defined was an integral part of RT's point. But I may have misread.

MLS would be much better if they adopted FIFA overtime rules.
