What's Your Earliest Memory?
I was sitting on a red tricycle.The yellow,blinding,brilliance of the sun..
warming me from head to toe.
My Father...lay in the driveway of our house,working on a car.
A cigarette cradled precariously, in his cracked lips,as he twisted
his nicotined stained fingers ,back and forth in mechanical precision.
His hands glowed a greasy grey-blue...cacked with years of hard work.
My Mother...was standing at the sink,washing dishes. Her eyes were beautiful then..they were not yet...colored with rage.She called us in for dinner...her voice calm.
That is the last time...I remember her that way.
What is one of your earliest memories?
Peace bd

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
I think I was between 1 or 2.
I know this because thats when we lived in certain town.
Anyhoo, I remember my brother and sister and some neighbour kids playing with a huuge
boomerang. Particularly, I coudnt "get it" why the thing kept coming back.
:lol:

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
My earliest 'clear' memory is of going on a long train journey(4 miles:lol:) with my Mother. I was three at the time. We were going to visit a relative who died when I was four, this is why I can 'place' the time. I also remember going to school for the first time. I can remember shouting 'Any gum chum' to the American Servicemen who visited a Laundry over the wall from the school. This would be around 1944-45.:)

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
What is your earliest memory, one would have thought.
The event itself may be in the past, but the memory is in the present.

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
The most earlisest thing I remember is when I was in Guam, I was 4 on the beach picking up crabs also in Guam there I remember living through a typhoon, we had no electricity so me and my parents were playing monopoly and I got mad for some reason threw a piece at my dad and spit on the floor. Another early memory is when I was in Hawaii picking up a coconut I was around 5 - 6 I dropped a coconut on my foot and I sayed shit my first cussword. Also being on Hawaii beach getting womped by 15 foot + waves. I could go on forever but id bore you so i'll stop there. :)

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
My earliest memory is of being in Germany at an RAF base. I remember being in a car and looking up at the trees.
Which is weird as my parent's car didn't have a sunroof. :ermm:

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
You're right, it's ridiculous. How else could one see outside of a car from within if it didn't have a sun-roof.
Having said that, Daddy-ho-tep was in the RAF so the vehicle may have had a periscope.

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
....having pneumonia when I was 2.
I remember being in a hospital bed with the different colored wires attached to me and a teddy bear next to me.
That's the only picture I have though...me just looking down towards the foot of the bed. (JPaulism)

Nah, that would have got caugth up in the rotory blades.
It must have been some sort of sonor, or rador type thing. That's the only sensible solution.

They didn't have gadgets like that in the olden days.
The only proper way that Chebus', frankly, tall tale could be plausible is if the infant Chebus was strapped to the roof as a navigation aid. They presumably used some kind of intricate tube for the driver and navigator to converse.

Yeah, I think you've sussed it.
An early form of satnav as it were. Do you think Bridge gets a commission from people who are using his idea.

One would certainly hope so. They do say that the best ideas are often born of a chance occurence. Penicillin, the 4-4-2 formation and Nuclear fission, for example.
Young Chebus was only up there to stop him crying like a sissy girl.
Can't see your pic, btw :unsure:

Correct. Except for the fact,that I am a mentalist...and predicted my own
amnesia...and the rest of the boards.
Remember...of course not.

Re: What Was Your Earliest Memory?
I remember a weird and very abstract dream I had, without proper language or anything that seemed taken from the real world, thus nothing like the dreams I have now. Can't say for certain how small I was, but I think I had it, or something similar several times when I was little.
I don't think it's possible to experience something like it once you've left the infant stage, not without drugs, anyway.
