Memory Capturer Mugs

Social lens of the photojournalist

That midnight hour when fleeting memories come home to roost.

Lady to man taking picture of fish: 'Wiggle him a little and get him to smile.'

Cut out and keep your own Marcel Proust.

'Remember when we caught small fish by the bucket full?' 'Oh, yeah! Those were the dace!'

"Man, these closed book exams suck! Who could possibly remember all this crap?"

A boy with a camera

Attic of hopes and dreams...

'Lost Diary'

'It's a sad case -- amnesia AND identity theft.'

'I've got it written down...'

"I have no idea where we parked the car, or why we exist."

"I don’t know … there’s a small part of me that just wants to erase my childhood."

"...I have the oddest 'earliest memory' and I wanted to share it. It's just as wekkm I guess. Knowing some man secretly attended my first birthday party has caused me to question my parentage all these years....Especially since Mother Park made me promise not to tell Father that the potted plant was acually J. Edgar Hoover."

'More pictures of your kids. Wow, they've really grown since yesterday.'

'Do you have anything for absent-mindedness?'

Amnesia Clinic: "Take one of these pills whenever you remember to."

'I have your MRI results. Half your brain is clogged with passwords and the other half is clogged with user names.'

"Forget the future, tell me what happened to the past ten years."

"Jack, I'm looking through these old love letters, faded flowers and other sentimental objects meant to inspire tender memories… junk?"

"Why won’t you just admit you forgot where you parked the car?"

Bear Office Worker

"Thanks, I'll write that down."

"My name is Proust. I've forgotten my room number."

"Hey, Frankie, remember me? Summer of '88—we were twelve and you buried me up to my neck and left me to die."

'How come you keep forgetting when it's your round?'

"Is that Penny I smell? It's been so long... Hold on, is this Dougie? No way! That crazy mongrel, he is nuts! I remember that time he chased those kids on skateboards all the way down Cliff Street. Wait, is this Rosie?!"

'Cheese.'

Useless-memory lane

I always frame yours, J.B.

"Is there a mnemonic I can use to remember how to spell mnenonic?"

"ME!!!"
