Jed245 | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 04:02 pm     Here we go people another Jed thread :o) heheh... Yeah I know half of ya just left cause that was lame. :o) hehe. Ok for the ones of us that stayed... Post something you remember Maybe a first in your life like your first date? Maybe a good friend or family member that is no longer part of your life. Maybe a time in your life or an event you were part of or witness to? It can be any memory you wish to share or voice. :o) My first post and example :o) I Remember ...that feeling I would get in my stomach the first day of school. All the excitement and all the dread. All the thoughts of what this year would be like. :o) Funny thing is though I have been in alot of situations that were new to me even going to school beyond high school. Never had that same feeling it did when I was young. :o) Jed. |
Pamy | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 04:06 pm     I remember when I could lay on my back and not have my boobs laying beside me |
Jed245 | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 04:14 pm     heh |
Ginger1218 | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 04:27 pm     I remember when I could remember. I have a hard time doing that nowadways. |
Ginger1218 | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 04:28 pm     I remember when I was a child and sick, my mother used to make me chicken soup immediately. Anything wrong in my life and my mother made me chicken soup. I miss her terribly - but I now make the soup the same way she did. |
Jed245 | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 09:20 pm     I Remember the first time I tried to cook. Funny thing to me is that in the background the movie the fly was on. And Gina davis' played just as I turned off the stove..... <be afraid be very afraid> |
Sawheel17 | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 09:34 pm     I like Jed' threads. Pamy stole my answer so I'll put,"I remember when I used to wear a bra but now I wear a belt around my hips to hold boobs in place." |
Heyltslori | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 10:16 pm     lol Saw!  |
Hootyhoot | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 02:56 pm     I remember my grandmother saying that I shouldn't wear sneakers without socks, because it would draw my brain. |
Twiggyish | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 03:04 pm     I remember exploring my grandmother's house. She'd let us (my cousins and myself) get into her clothes and jewelry. We'd have fashion shows...LOL |
Marysafan | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 03:09 pm     I remember the time in 1972, when some of our friends had gone crabbing and brought me a mess of crabs to cook for them. Now, I have no idea why these fellas thought that a young bride from the Upper Pennisula of Michigan would know the first thing about cooking crabs...but they did. Luckily, I heard somewhere that you boil a lobster alive ...so I assumed it was the same way for crabs. So I put a big ol' pot of water on the stove to boil...and then I tossed in the bucket of crabs. Now at first ...these crabs didn't mind so much...but as the water started to get a little warm and then hot...well...they began to get a little uncomfortable in the pot....and I'll be darned if the little buggers didn't want out of there! So here were all these crabs trying to crawl over each other and climb out of the pot! Well...this was the first time I ever had to fight with food I was cooking...but fight I did. I took my big ol' wooden spoon and began smacking those little suckers back in the pot! Eventually things settled down and they cooked mightly peaceful...but it was touch and go for awhile there. Those poor little things scared the bejesus outta me...and I have never cooked crabs since! |
Cyn | Friday, February 28, 2003 - 07:27 am     I remember when nothing mattered in the whole world, and we were on our way to school and someone's Mom was listening to Nina Totenberg. |
Jed245 | Friday, February 28, 2003 - 07:33 am     I remember the first time I saw a circus live. It was amazing. There was Stephine Powers er Dianna Ross, and a few more people that are famous. Did I tell ya Stephine Powers touched me? hehe So did Dianna Ross. I was in the hallway getting a drink and popcorn and I got a spider man toy. I was in third grade and nervous so my teacher went with me. I stepped backwards and bumped into Dianna Ross. It was neat she kinda brushed me off though and put her hands on my shoulders then on the top of my head. Stephanie Powers though talked to me which was cool. It was all really cool cause my teacher was there with me and to this day.. If I see her she'll say "Hey remember when we went to the circus?" hehe. Jed. |

Lumbele | Friday, February 28, 2003 - 07:57 am     Me, too, Square, but just barely.  |
Katlady53 | Friday, February 28, 2003 - 09:49 am     I remember how much it hurt my feelings when other kids made fun of me for being skinny. Oh, for the good ole days. ;) |
Zeno39 | Saturday, March 01, 2003 - 01:09 pm     I remember when you could leave your house unlocked when you went somewhere. Eons ago. And most teenagers walked to where they wanted to go. If you had a car, you were considered filthy rich. In school boys wore slacks and girls wore skirts or dresses. |
Ddr1135 | Saturday, March 01, 2003 - 01:52 pm     I remember when I thought being 42 was old, LOL. |
Sweetbabygirl | Saturday, March 01, 2003 - 04:33 pm     I remember how delicious Dolly Madison Zinger snack cakes used to be, full of creamy vanilla filling. I also remember the pain and humiliation I felt when I sat on a tack in elementary school. |
Ketchuplover | Saturday, March 01, 2003 - 04:45 pm     42 is old. I remember putting thumbtacks on chairs |
Pamy | Saturday, March 01, 2003 - 05:02 pm     LOL KL!! Sweetbaby..your school had mean kids! |
Hunter | Saturday, March 01, 2003 - 09:15 pm     I remember a retarded man names Jake who was the brunt of abuse and ridicule in the neighborhood. He would risk the wrath of Mrs Kimble, the mean lady down the street, while jumping over her fence to pick me a piece of rhubarb because I was too short and afraid to do it myself. I remember a man called Hot Dog John, who used to gather a group of us poor kids from the neighborhood into the rear of his resturant. He would leave about a third of the ice cream in the bottom of those paper cartons, give us each a spoon and laugh while we reached down to our armpits to scrape it clean. I remember these images that always make me smile A pile of puppies playing...a baby eating pudding with her fingers...a blazing sunset diving into a field of wildflowers. A large fish dangling from my line..especially that. Mostly ..I remember the little kindnesses of people that left a lasting impression on my life. |
Jed245 | Sunday, March 02, 2003 - 04:17 am     I remember an old man. I can't remember what we called him right off hand. He would walk the roads and everytime a few cars would pass him he would start dancing right there on the side of the road. :o) People would throw nickels, quarters, and dimes at him. He would always seem to pick every one of them up then dance again at the next group of cars. Upon his death it was revealed that he had money stashed all over his house, thousands from what I hear. I also remember my childhood and when life was much simpler. I miss that a little. Jed. |
Lancecrossfire | Sunday, March 02, 2003 - 12:27 pm     Hunter, nice post. It's good to hear of things that helped people feel good, and them remembering it all of their life. |
Hermione69 | Monday, March 03, 2003 - 06:01 pm     I like this thread. I remember belly-flopping off the high dive when I was trying to show off for a boy. Ouch. Bruised stomach AND ego. |
