Both mine and ex-wife’s SSN (divorced 5 years)
childhood telephone number (even remember the lettered exchange – WHitney)
pi to 20 places (what can I say, I’m a nerd)
combination locks that I haven’t used for 20 years
friend’s home phone numbers from childhood

used to know bank numbers and others

I find that the easiest way to forget numbers is to put them into my wristwatch (Timex Datalink) and then I usually forget them altogether.

I can remember the first phone number I ever learned - the one we had when I was four years old.

On the other hand, it took me at least a year to learn my current work number.

I still remember the first phone number I ever learned (more than fifty years ago), but I don’t remember the last phone number I had before my current one (only four years ago). Go figure.

Oh, Uncle Beer, that was just evil.
jenny I’ve got your number…

I remember the license plate numbers to the last four vehicles my parents have owned. I remember the license plate number to the car I traded off about a year ago.

I remember the phone numbers of friends I had in grade school and the old phone numbers of friends who have since moved. I remember the phone number to the place I last lived in before I moved from there five years ago.

I know pi to 3.14159265 (I know a lot of people can beat me on this). I know the square roots for several numbers (square root of 2=1.41421356, 3=1.7320508, etc.) I can recite the powers of 2 up to the 24th power (2^24 = 16,777,216).

July 1, 1987 was the day I bought my first VCR. February 8, 1986 was the day I bought my first “real” stereo system. September 29, 1994 was the day I bought my first car, and April 20, 2001 was when I bought my second car.
