The series ‘House’ had an episode about this condition. Never knew it existed, then again, I can’t remember anything.

I saw this video late last night. It’s quite an incredible ability to have.

Something the Clintons are certainly not afflicted with

I wish Politicians, Historians, and Clergy had this condition.

Christine Blasey Ford does not suffer from this.

Guess they won’t be buying any Ginko Biloba anytime soon.

There are many things in my life that I do not remember.

I’d like to remember a great many of those.

And others are perhaps best left forgotten. ;-)

Not all that rare ... My EX remembered EVERYTHING I have ever Said, Done, Thought of Doing, My Bad Clothing Choices, Every Time I was Late, Everything she was disappointed with Anything I did... and she could Word For Word recite any excuse that I could mutter in my defense.

I really miss her

I was there until age 20.
I can still remember vividly history lectures from my sophomore year of college.
Self medication cured that...
Not that was a great thing.

There are a lot of mistakes I would actually enjoy reliving. You’re only young once. This ability is a gift.

60 Minutes Australia covers some sketchy topics. Very tabloid style. I am not saying this report is false, but it should be viewed with some skepticism.

I remember just before the age of three, a little girl about my same age was visiting at our house. She hit me on the head with a yellow wooden toy block. That did not end well.

I do not remember at age about 3 sticking the water hose into Dad's Ford sedan or turning on the water when my brother said "Fill 'er up!" (can't remember who stuck the hose in the gas nozzle and who turned the water on - we co-operated on that one), but have been reminded by those who did.

I remember around age 4-5 as an old Chinese woman at the medical clinic standing at the receptionist window and suddenly began coughing up a LOT of blood because she had tuberculosis (did not know that at the time). Next thing I know, my mom had grabbed me by the wrist and I was literally flying through the air as she ran out of the office with me.

I do remember being bitten by a friend's dog on the elbow around the age of 5-6. Probably was because he bit it, and then shook it...really hard. I do remember that.

I remember climbing over the back fence when living overseas when around age 7 and going with my brother where the basement of a large building had been constructed prior to the building being built and going down in there after a monsoon rain. It was flooded and we were looking for a way to float back in there. Fortunately, we didn't find anything on which to float. Sometimes when you don't get your way, you're really lucky.

I remember about age 8-9 hanging on to my dad's muscular arm on one side while he carried my brother and I out into the ocean. I thought I was gonna die.

I remember around age 10 about an electrical AC wire which rang the gate doorbell being broken in two and using it to try and keep our dog from getting out of a gap in the fence. Worked fine until I held the dog and then stuck the hot wire to the dog. That one didn't end well either. Can't believe I lived through that one.

After having written that, I will say that I remember a LOT of things in detail. Some of them were stupid, some funny, some sad, some joyful, some nostalgic, but I do remember. Sometimes, as someone mentioned, it is better not to remember certain things. I do remember a lot of scripture because my wonderful dad taught me to remember those verses. And, I remember huge portions of my marriage to the woman to whom I am still married after all of these years. I have no better friend.

I am going to remember when the Democrats get stomped in the elections Tuesday. I believe with all faith that God is going to help us against them if for nothing else their arrogance in thinking they have elections won just because they say so.

I’m not sure I’d want that *gift*.

I would not consider that a blessing.

The Bible tells us that everyone has a “book” of their life that is reviewed at the White Throne Judgement. Your brain can access this record in a more or less accurate way. These people have their “radios” tuned to their “channel” precisely all the time. You can access your ancestor’s records. This is how “Reincarnation” works.

There was a study done where a schizophrenic who heard “voices” was driven slowly through a neighborhood and what he “heard” was recorded. The researchers then canvased the houses in the neighborhood to find out what was going on at the time they had driven by. The correlation with what the schizo “heard” was amazing.
