Never ate another charcoal snake firecracker ever again |

Years later, about 1969, I was in the old wooden Navy barracks in Pearl Harbor as they filmed tora tora tora and it was a sunday morning that they woke me up with all the planes flying overhead. I can somewhat sympathize. I went to the window to look out, and it took a few seconds to comprehend. It was about the same year that I watched the moon landing on the color tv in the Day Room at the same barracks.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 73825498 United States 01/27/2023 08:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sooo many mementoes of being 3…it was when I had what must have been an OBE…but this isn’t about that I remember I was at church PreK - I was 3… We all went out to the playground like we did every day. Only this time I left my “bappy” in the classroom. I was addicted to this wonderful chenille security blanket - didn’t go anywhere without it..slept with it in to high school (still have it in the attic) I went back to get it and the pastor big whig’s older teenage son answered the door and said I could have it if I pulled my pants down first. Funny the memory ends then and pops back up with me being in my mom’s VW bug when she picked me up and told her about it. Nothing in between. Did good old mom drop me right back off there the next day, no questions asked???? You guys take a wild guess!! The 70s were different - thanks Mom! |

(Spare the crude jokes geezers!!!) Along with the deep crevice in the middle of the bump from when the sicko orthodontist implanted a device and BROKE my palate in half …you know…to make more room! He probably got a hard on doing it. Once I stuck a pin in it to test the depth…almost touch my brain noggin! Then each day good old mom got to insert a key and give it a half turn craaaaanking that thing open wider each day! Fun times! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77859974 United States 01/27/2023 08:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I had a very vivid dream knew night and I kinda recognized the house, I described to my mother in detail this odd dream and she was shocked. She said I was 2 years old and I described the house to a T even the toys I passed when I told her what I saw when I was walking in there. uote:YOUR OLDEST MEMORY 84357588:MV81MzQ1OTYzX0E1RDJFNjBB] I have a memory in which I was 4 years old. A man was carrying me (towards my house) after his car's sideview mirror hit my head. My older sister (by 1 year) was yelling at him to "leave my brother alone" and trying to pull me out of his arms. LoL When I got older I was told; it was a neighbor's car pulling out in reverse out of his driveway. We were kids playing and I ran into his mirror. Just as he began to move I was running in his direction and his sideview mirror hit my forehead Anyway, my upper forehead still has 1 inch scar. That was from more than 40 years ago! |

When I was 8-10 I would remember being in our first home, getting a bath in the sink. Then as I grew up, I would remember myself remembering that event. So it's been chained together |

User ID: 80057119 United States 01/27/2023 08:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I once told my mother of a weird very real recurring dream I had been having all my life and can vividly recall. In my "dream" I was laying somewhere and I could see plastic walls up around me. I could see people in white and I kept feeling them stabbing my legs with something. My moms mouth dropped open and she told me "honey, that's not a dream. You're remembering from when you were about 6 months old and near death and they were trying to find a place to get the IV in!" I'm not sure if she was right, but the first actual memory I have is about 2 yrs old riding my tricycle and pretending the shadow of our carport was a parking space Lol CatWhisperer |
