I remember when I thought using a bar of LAVA hand soap with a moist washcloth might be an excellent acne cleansing route. "Dude, what happened to your face?" "I went snow skiing in hell, over the weekend, that's what."
 The best thing you can do for your fellow,
next to rousing his conscience, is - not to give him things
to think about, but to wake things up that are in him...
to make him think things for himself - George MacDonald

I remember when going to McDonalds or any popular fastfood place was a treat. Not an everyday meal.
Axl - Take a look at our piercing menu.
Daria - I don't think that's how you spell "uvula."
Axl - That's not "uvula."

In it she circumvented the censors by hitting a single high note when she sang the word "fever," at a pitch that suggested the high point of a woman's ecstatic bliss!

I remember when all the people were living now and for today not in the past or for the future that may never come.
I remember when there were no frontiers.
I remember when all the people lived in harmony without any greed or possessions. All for all.
Than I opened my eyes and turned the TV on.

I first saw my teachers cry. It was Nov. 22, 1963 and they told us the President was killed in Dallas. The teachers asked us all to say a prayer for his family and the country. I had never been asked to pray by a teacher before because I went to a public school. I was 9 years old.
