    Better than a PDA

    Local guy Brad Williams, a local news announcer who has interviewed me a couple of times for medical segments, has one of the world's best memories. He never forgets ANYTHING.

    Now that's a syndrome I think I can live with! I had heard about the A.J.
    woman on TV. I didn't realize, though, that 3 people had been identified
    with it.

      WAY too many numbers! Phones, National Provider ID, DEA, licenses, etc. I can't recall them all either.

      But I NEVER forget my anniversary or LOML's birthday. That would be FATAL!

            I heard somewhere that certain traumas can trigger a permanent moment of memory. Mine was birth. That's right, I remember it distinctly. It must have been due to my inordinate dislike for looking at my knees for all those months while waiting for the big day.

              There are a few things in my life that are best forgotten. If I need to remember something LOML will remind me.

                Trauma, you say?

                Circumcision? (that is why we lie around and s(word) ourselves and do nothing else for the first year)


                Gramps had a photographic memory. I am/was supposed to be able to develop it. I can say it is a curse. There are a LOT of things one doesn't want/shouldn't to remember!
