Funny, I can still recite, in entirety, from memory things I committed to memory, in the 70/80 like:
Tennyson's Ulysses, The Voyage, and The Charge of the Light Brigade
Father Forgets W. Livingston Learned. Every young parent should read this and remember it's message.
Casabianca by Felicia Dorothea Hemans
Various other works by different people.
I also remember all 100 peg words from Harry Lorayne memory system.
But I'll be damned if I can remember where I put my car keys, billfold from day to day.
