Memory, isn't it wierd?

[hedders]

Is this normal?

I am 37 and pretty much have to write down everything or i forget it. I have got to the stage where i walk into a room and can't remember why, but i can remember my mates phone numbers from my teens and all of my dads cars and registration plates from my childhood etc.

Is it just me?

No, its me too. And I'm only 33.

I forget little things all the time, and I have no excuse!

More annoying is when you do stuff like me, like forgetting you have bills to pay, or forgetting to post things. The previous owner of my alfa still hasnt gotten the cd he left in the player back, and that was about 6 or 7 weeks ago I got it...

I'll remember to do something when I am in no position to do it, say driving to work... thing is I get to work, get distracted and it might be a day or so later that I remember again to do it.... damn annoying

Erm oh sorry, I came into this thread for a reason but damned if I can remember what it was. Hang on a sec it'll come back to me... I'll go back to the thread I was in and see if I remember......

The human mind works in a strange way.

For example, if someone asked you to write down every Trivial Pursuit question you'd had before, you could probably only remember two or three, but when you play the game, you can instantly remember the answer to every question you've had before!

Is it possible to hi-jack your own thread? let me try.

I went to school with Ginger Bakers Son (drummer god from the past for the younger members)
and I used to hang out with the family (not Ginger as he was long gone).
One day I was playing Stoned Trivial Pursuits with Ginger Bakers wife and kids and his eldest daughter got this question:

Who was in the band 'Cream' with Eric Clapton and Jack Bruce?.(or something similar)

She got that one right!

By my strict Trivial Pursuit rules, "My Dad" would not be the correct answer to that question.
