I Forgot To Remember

"Just twenty-two years old, Su Meck was already married and the mother of two children in 1988 when a ceiling fan in the kitchen of her home fell from its mounting and struck her in the head. She survived the life-threatening swelling in her brain that resulted from the accident, but when she regained consciousness in the hospital the next day, she didn't know her own name. She didn't recognize a single family member or friend, she couldn't read or write or brush her teeth or use a fork--and she didn't have even a scrap of memory from her life up to that point. The fiercely independent and outspoken young woman she had been vanished completely. Most patients who suffer amnesia as a result of a head injury eventually regain their memories, but Su never did. After three weeks in the hospital she was sent back out into a world about which she knew nothing: What did it mean to be someone's wife? To be a mother? How did everyone around her seem to know what they were supposed to do or say at any given moment? Adrift in the chaos of mental data that most of us think of as everyday life, Su became an adept mimic, fashioning a self and a life out of careful observation and ironclad routine. She had no dreams for herself, no plans outside the ever-burgeoning daily to-do list of a stay-at-home mom. The Meck family left Texas to start over in Maryland, and told almost no one in their new life about Su's accident. Nearly twenty years would pass before Su understood the full extent of the losses she and her family suffered as a result of her injury. As a series of personally devastating events shattered the "normal" life she had worked so hard to build, Su realized that she would have to grow up all over again, and finally take control of the strange second life she had awoken into"--

This entire book is the result of the collaborative efforts of the Xlibris staff who did the actual printing and handled all the technicalities of its production and publication. And lets not forget Elise Alarimo who transcribed all of the material and conducted the business end so ably. She made the many telephone calls, filled out various forms and arranged the entire table of contents, etc and was incredibly involved throughout this entire procedure. Also I want to thank Elaine Winik whose suggestions as to some of the titles of these essays in addition to her dedication and constant encouragement in her writing classes was so invaluable to me. Plus MarcusI certainly do thank you for being my ongoing ink supplier. How would I be able to write without it. Finally, I (Bernice) designed and drew the books front cover as I did with all 8 of my other books and of course I am totally responsible for the literary contents.

This is simple history from one who got to know each individual up close and personal. Johnson expands upon his previous book, The Kid and The King, to include dozens of singers and actors who thrilled and entertained you through the years.

It's finally here - the last installment of the Carl Reiner Remember Trilogy (which is not to say he won't continue to remember). In 2012, Carl wrote his hilarious and heartwarming memoir, "I Remember Me," chronicling ninety years of living and laughing, with twelve Emmys and a Grammy to attest to his esteemed career in show business. Over the next two years, so many more stories continued to flood Carl's memory that he felt compelled to follow up with the equally rich and funny, "I Just Remembered." In this latest work, "What I Forgot To Remember," Carl has written a book that goes beyond the scope of mere life and showbiz memories. To be sure, there are, incredibly, a wealth of new memories included here: the day he and Mary Tyler Moore acted as sex coaches in the mating of their dogs; sharing stories with Milton Berle about each of their unique encounters with silent film star Pola Negri; his quest to be included in the Guinness Book of World Records along with his old friend Betty White; and more with a broad spectrum of celebrities spanning decades such as Pete Seeger, Tyrone Power, Eva Marie Saint and Conan O'Brien, to name just a few.The bonus in "What I Forgot To Remember" is the inclusion of never before documented "historical" events and characters, filtered through (or possibly created by, who can know?) the brain cells of Carl Reiner; for instance, the history of the straight pin, "Literature's Most Ignored And Important Commodity." Or Carl's world-altering invention of the highly-acclaimed "Improvenator." Or the touching story of his mother's life. And for good measure, writer's advice from a skilled wordsmith in "Chews Yore Homonyms Well, As Awl Grate Righters Dew."So enjoy. Whether it happened in actuality or in the fertile mind of Carl Reiner, you will be equally entertained.

Although Arthur the platypus has a terrible time remembering everything from his hat to the names of the oceans, he finds that there are some important things in his life which he can remember.
