It takes time for them to determine that.

Meanwhile you win.

If you were married to her,

My first thought, too, the wife from Hell. Of course, my wife remembers everything, even stuff that never happened.

Good thing she never worked for the Clintons.

Did Vince Foster have the same problem?

Why are you misspelling his name? It’s John Kerry.

Oh ya, He was in Viet Nam wasn’t he?

It’s about a woman who has visited 57 states in the U.S.A.

But can she remember the capitals of all 57 states?

" . . I also recall every bad decision, insult and excruciating embarrassment. Over the years it has eaten me up. It has kind of paralysed me."

Hey, me too. It's called being neurotic.

This woman’s story is entirely believeable.
When I was about 34 or 35, I somehow acquired the ability to remember everything I read, I can even tell you page and paragraph number and if there are illustrations on a page. It is strange though; when I read something, it isn’t available for recall for about a week to ten days, then it’s like looking stuff up in a book in the library. Here’s the really weird part. My oldest daughter, now 36, has the same ability. She started noticing it about 2 years ago, about the same age that I was when I acquired it. It doesn’t work for experiences or non-written stuff though, I still have a hard time with peoples names and stuff I’m told verbally, and I couldn’t tell you what I ate for lunch 2 days ago, but if I write it down and read it, it stores like a photo.

No, I didn’t miss that. I just forgot. :-) Now, Jon Carry makes sense. Ha!
