A statement just made to me in my office
"I remember handing that document to you last January."


Really? You remember handing me a document 14 months ago? What was I wearing? What time of day was it? Where were you and I standing relative to each other at the time?


That's some amazing memory you have there!

1. I know exactly what you were wearing. Let me start with the shirt...

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the President his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, three Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

:hi:

9. You smelled vaguely of pancakes and syrup.
The ambient temperature was 72 degrees. The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald was playing on the radio. SEe.

10. That's amazing!
Of course, The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald is always playing in my office, so obviously you'd remember that part.

12. Do you work in my office?
Honest to gods, I have a memory like that. Not only would I be able to tell you exactly when I handed you the document, but I could probably also give a quick summary of the conversation and other surrounding events (to try and refresh your memory).

It's a little freaky. :hide:

13. I don't doubt that some people do have memories like that, at least about some things
But that doesn't describe the coworker in this case, who has what we might describe as a "sporadically phenomenal memory of convenience."
