    This is why journals and diaries are so valued. What the mind remembers later may not be what the mind experienced earlier.

    It’s a fine line: Old enough to have something worth saying (your opinion, of course)… but young enough to remember what it was. I’m already on the “too late” side of that divide, though I do remember some things. Sometimes.

    “Writing A memoir” or “writing memoirS” but “writing memoir”?

    She has a point; there’s less to write about when you’re younger.

    That’s a much more appropriate title than “Beautiful Things”!

    It’s only a problem if you want it to be true.

    Go ‘remind’ him about the time he broke into Democratic Headquarters with the Plumbers to help Nixon’s re-election. It’ll make a great chapter in the memoir. But convince his 1959 second place showing in the Tour de France deserves a lot of space.

    Question is: will he remember why his hat has money in it?

    If I can’t remember what happened, is it true or false?

    I remember when Harry Truman won the 400 meter hurdle at the Helsinki Olympics. That was a day!

    He can look forward to CRAFT, “Can’t Remember a Friendly Thing”, for various spellings of ‘friendly’.

    There’s a great little (analog) notebook company out there who’s motto is “I’m not writing it down to remember it later, I’m writing it down to remember it now.” Much less ephemeral than digital notes.

    Why is the guy sitting in front of a bookstore? Is that what author’s do when they’re writing? How is collecting money going to help? How did the lady know what he was doing? How did the lady know that “writing memoir” is a phrase when none of the rest of us did? Why is the bookstore allowing him to set up a table there? How is he using that laptop while holding a hat in one hand? Why am I writing all this instead of just saying that I don’t understand any part of this strip?

    I’d question putting money in his hat since he using an expensive MacBook. I’m 100% Mac since the very first one, so mine’s the voice of experience.

    I remember things from when I was two in 1949. I remember 1968 very well; Vietnam stays with you. Yesterday? Uh, not so much.
