You can tell a lie so often that after a while you start believing it.. So it is possible!
I have no idea if it's true, but I once heard that if you don't urinate for a long time your mind can only focus on the urge to do that, so you can lie during a lie detector test and it won't register because you're thoughts are focusd on when you'll be able to get to a bathroom.
Here's some interesting sites about the poygraph:

Yes, I was watching a thing on the brain about this. There are seperate parts of the brain that is used when you lie. There are two kinds of lies that can be detected at the moment. There is the lie that you are aware of and is made up on the spot so to speak, and there is the lie that you may not be aware of, or practised all the answers to. There is some research in catscan type equitment that may be used in the near future to replace the traditional lie detector. As the technology grows, the lie itself will be detected and not the side effects of lying. I wish I wasn't so lazy or I'd try and track down a link to it. I'm sure there's some info out there somewhere on it.
found an entry in wikipedia. Thank got for it

the brain is a very powerful thing...
Years ago when I worked as a paramedic, we who worked for the fire department all knew a stoner cop who was going through the testing process, including the polygraph, to be promoted within the police department. He would have had a very hard time passing the polygraph with his ongoing history of weed use. So when it came time for his polygraph, he put a thumbtack in the toe of his shoe and practiced answering questions he knew would be on the exam, pressing his big toe down on the thumbtack so his body would reflect a similar stress response on every question. He used the thumbtack trick during the official polygraph. And he passed.
Which was sad, really, because in addition to being a stoner, he was a lying, cheating, married-but-womanizing snake of a guy who probably made the most crooked cop there ever was.
Which is why I'm good at "lying" But it technical isn't lying if I don't remember killing him -err, I mean...Quote:
