(No order)

While I am glad these were not captured, I do fear that when the government perfects the brain/hard disc memory recorder technology it has been working on, it will be possible to play back on your computer any memories that you have of any event in your life, even those that you think are buried.  That will be an interesting day.

1. All the ideas other people came up with that I claimed as my own (ongoing)

2. Whatever took place in my apartment on the night I drunkenly brought home the lecherous gay fellow (1992)

3. Every time I got drunk and:
-told people how much or how little I thought of them, or
-told people how good I am at a particular sport (usually basketball), or
-made a bold plan for some kind of future project or road trip that never came to pass, or
-threw up.

(hopefully 1985-2003, but will likely continue)

4. The ridiculously mean, unfunny and inexcusable thing I said to that bartender in Chicago who my friend was hitting on, causing her life to spiral into misery, obesity and hopelessness (and preventing my friend from getting any action from her then or any other time ).  (ca. 1999)

5. Either of my two car accidents (1990 and 1995)-- although nobody was hurt, and maybe enough time has passed for me to laugh at them.

6. Unnecessary lies I've told (ongoing).

7. Any day in which I rocked out to Billy Joel (1982-1984)

8. The Lily Tomlin Incident (1989)
