I think it may have resulted from a major surgery. I think I lost some memories. My twin brother remembers everything.

I am adding you to my Blogroll if that's OK. 10-4? A childhood memory I have is hiking the Mesa Trail just west of Boulder CO with my Dad from start to finish 7 rolling miles. During the trek, looking up and seeing the 3rd (most famous) Flatiron towering above and seeing how huge, steep and smooth it was; then looking down and seeing our house and my backyard. Pretty cool experience as a kid! -MileHighDad www.milehighdad.com Nice Blog! I am adding you to my Blogroll if that’s OK. 10-4?

I also have a memory of projectile vomitting grape koolaid. Nice, huh? This is my first time here. Nice blog!

That had to be scary! I saw a kid get hit by a car and it was not pretty. All I remember is his shoes flying through the air in slow motion after they were knocked off of his feet! @XBox: Dude, you are a riot! :D @Chuck: Sweet...an outdoor shower! Your Mom sounds pretty cool too! Many of memories from when I was little older had to with the rain...or mud caused by the rain...or breaking out in hives because I went swimming in a cow manure infested body of water (shit pond as us country folk call it) after it had rained. :D @JLow: Haha! Nothing like flashing your goods to your younger cousin! You probably scarred her for life! :D Funny stuff! @Bill, Not Jill: No way! That is some dedication there! Bringing a row boat to a party? Wow! I for sure thought you were going to say that the paper firemen and firetruck caught on fire from the candles and you had to call the real firemen and firetruck to come put it out...but the row boat and eel story was better. :D @kspin: Whew!

There were paper firemen on my cake, and a fold-out paper firetruck beside it. What I don't remember is that the streets were flooded that day, and my grandparents had to come to my party in a rowboat. They saw an eel. ~Bill, not Jill I remember my second birthday party.

My family was in my grandparents'. My 3 years younger cousin (sister) and I were seated on the floor facing each other, banging the tops of some cookie tin-cans like drums, between our legs, making all sorts of noise. We were laughing, having fun. I remember looking at her laughing, her face changed, and went <i>EEEEeeeewwwww</i> looking at my crotch. There was a tear in my shorts / crotch. My wrinkly scrotum had greeted her. Chinese New Year, I don’t know which year; not sure if I could even count yet.

I can remember being 3 or 4 and standing underneath a leaky eaves trough letting the water run over me. It became even more fun when my mom handed me a bar of soap. Nice post Jared.
