Sometimes things don't get forgotten.

A couple of years ago when Prince William married Kate Upton I was doing some planting outside. The wedding was going on and from time to time I'd go inside and watch a bit of it.

Anyway, later on that day one of the neighbors was passing and stopped. She saw me and asked me if I had watched the wedding.

"Yeah," I replied. "Larry the Cable Guy was sitting next to Prince Andrew. He sure cleans up pretty good."

"Larry the Cable Guy?" she asked incredulously.

"He's big in the U.K." I said. "They love him there."

"Really?"

"You didn't know that?" I replied.

Later that night she and her husband had another couple drop by and she said that Larry the Cable Guy was sitting next to Prince Andrew at the wedding. She made somewhat of a fool of herself but she's a good sport and never held it against me.

Last evening I was talking to her husband and someone pulled up next to us on the curb. My neighbor introduced me to the guy that had pulled up.

"This is Piccolo. He's the guy that told Lois that Larry the Cable Guy was sitting next to Prince Andrew at the royal wedding. Remember that?"

While this isn't too bad, it does serve as a reminder that your past will often come up to haunt you.
