      And no: he doesn't suffer from Korsakov. Not that I know of.. He might've told me and I might've forgotten, though…

        I remember beer names, though human names are a challenge.  I just don't think of what I'm wearing today as "IHSH-72."  I think of it as a red buffalo check Western flannel.

        Think it, be it.

          Nope, I can remember names, I just don't bother with numbers.  Usually, I'll just go with a description, like "wabash work shirt" or "black rider's jacket" and that works fine.

          Oddly, I can remember lots of watch movement numbers with no problem (I can tell you the difference between an ETA 2824 and a 2836, or a Poljot 3133 and a 31681, for instance).

              You sure?  How about the variations on the 7750 chronograph movement?  My favorite is the 7753.

                  No need to say chronograph when describing a 7750 everybody knows that 🙂

                    This is good advice.

                    Ok watching it…

                          Well, this is a first. I'm up at 0300 to leave the house at 0445 to take a two hour drive and be ready to go at 0700 to evaluate a culinary certification. My brain is so confused right now. It senses there's coffee, but it feels like night time.

                            Sounds like a dream, take your heavyweight clothes off and do a lap of the block, if nobody flinches you're either dreaming or have moved to Amsterdam. Tough wake up time!

                                @Seul, I have always struggle to remember street names, Can't even tell you the name of streets 1 block from where I live, they just refuse to stick. I describe places by land markers or use Google Maps ::). No problems knowing my 33 from 62, 72, 86 etc. Added I have network addresses stuck from every network I've ever worked on for the past 15 years (this is extremely unusual). Mind you, I also know Pi to 50+ digits…

                                    That is simply how we find things in England.

                                      So that's why your addresses read like route descriptions…

                                        Speaking of landmarks in England, I was REALLY bent out of shape when I was told there aren't any more blue police boxes

                                        I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                                          No, cellular phone technology has even made it to good old Albion. I know you Yanks mainly believe that much of England kinda looks like the Shire from The Lord Of The Rings, and it kinda does but with more heroin addicts and tower blocks.

                                            The Yank I just picked up from the airport phoned me from Immigration to tell me where he was. He had purchased a £5 British Sim Card from eBay before he arrived.  That's class….
