Yesterday I remembered the name of a fruit I heard in passing many, many years ago but had never tried or tasted. The fact that I recalled the fruit was weird. It was like my brain was working overtime. It made me think of another incident where I wasn’t sure how I recalled or connected some information. I wrote about the incident in a LinkedIn article – I wrote that I tried to obtain bus updates while waiting at a bus stop. From the signs at the bus stop, I knew that text messages should be sent to a particular number to receive updates on the college (University of Maryland) bus that stopped at the bus stop. The signs did not provide the text message address for the bus I was waiting for (the F4), but somehow I knew that the same number could be used. I thought I heard about it at a previous time.
Sometimes it is weird like this in my life.
I published the article on LinkedIn in 2015. It has photos of the bus stop signs. Link to the article: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/bus-updates-via-text-messagesms-fahmeenaodetta-moore/
