    Default Historic Recall

    Ms. Crabtree had been telling her 1st grade class the story of the
    discovery of America by Columbus.

    She concluded with, "And all this happened more than 500 years ago."

    "Wow!" exclaimed one student, "What a great memory you have!"
    Androgens Order
    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.

    Haha.

    I don't remember my school ever teaching us about Columbus or much American history at all in fact. Shame.

    She must have a memory like my wife:
    * Remembered that I forgot our anniversary 49 years ago.
    * Remembered that I didn't put out the garbage bins on 17 Feb 1972
    * Remembered that I didn't wash the dishes, morning of 2 Jun. 1981
    * Remembered that I didn't give her breakfast in bed on her last birthday.

    I remember now that she remembered then.
