Memorized

I remember the names of paint colors from jobs. One time I was walking through the grocery store and saw a customer from years past and said, " Periwinkle Blue in your little boy's bedroom." She didn't remember the name of the color but did inform me that the little boy is graduating college soon.":p
you should have asked if he needed his dorm painted...lol

I like math for math's sake.

First time I heard that expression was my sophomore year in college. I was considering changing my major from engineering to math, and had to talk with our aero department head about it. He was a bowling ball of a guy, smoked cigars. After I explained I wanted to transfer, he looked up at me through a thick cloud of smoke and said, "Duke, do you want to do math for math's sake?".

I used to be able to recite the presidents in order. Unfortunately due to the useless nature of this exercise, I have forgotten.
that could still be useful in some trivia games, or questions on jeopardy...... I used to know the flags of every country we were allies with. thanks to a bar that gave free beer to anyone who could name the country to the flags hanging around it.....lol
