The name game {Listography 2011}.

                               
Each Wednesday, Emily, @ Notorious MLE, Danielle, @ Elleinad Spir, and myself are working our way through the lists of Listography 2011.
  
  
This list highlights a personal flaw, remembering names (and apparently spelling too)... even when it comes to our former presidents.  Speaking of presidents, Roosevelt was a master of name recollection.  Maybe I can set my mind to it, and improve this lacking skill.  It would save me from many embarrassing  moments.
                               
How would your list stack up, compared to mine?  Would it blow it outta the water??  Don't worry-  I won't be offended.  If you have a list of your own, link up below (and then see how the others fared)!  If you don't have a post to link up, feel free to add to my humble little list in the comment section... or don't, as I realize this is not the most exciting topic to write about. 
                          
*But next weeks topic sure is.  See?

    This week killed me. I need to study up...on lots of subjects...before Bonham starts learning about them in school!

    I am not even trying this because I know I would suck. I am also terrible with names! Sad that I can name all of the characters of all of the Real Housewives seasons and Jersey Shore, but not the presidents. :/ Oh well. :)

    Not even going to attempt it but I do like your list! Glad I didn;t have to do it though, I am so not good at things like that

    I'm impressed with your list, Torrie! I feel like it's just better for my self esteem if I don't try to do this one on my own. Haha.

    I love how Taft is often one of first ones people remember; he's number five on the three lists I have seen so far.

    I am so utterly useless at memory things (er what did I just say...) Bizarrely I can remember hopeless facts about B-list stars but can barely remember my kid's names. There was a great article about memory in New York Times this weekend. All about association. For example my name would be cup of Joe spilled ee! So: Jody. Kind of complicated...

    totally pointless for me to make a list on this. yours would blow mine out of the water.

    personally, i've decided to start building a repertoire for my list on the 16th... =)

    Might have to pass on this but I like the idea of trying to do this and just exercising the brain a bit. Hope you have a great weekend Torrie.
