Was listening to the BBC World Service a few days back. They talked to an interesting man that claimed to recall every day of his life in complete clarity
Well, Naturally they put it to the test. They told him the date of a major event and he was to guess what happened on that date, and what he was doing at the time. Sure, everyone knows about man landing on the moon, anyone can know that (except for me because I'm and alien), but honestly, can you even try to remember this exact day last year? Only a few have been diagnosed with Hyperthymesia, also known as piking or hyperthymestic syndrome. (hooray for me I can copy/paste from wikipedia!)
Think of the benefits, you'd be able to remember everything. Think of the downfalls, You'd be able to remember everything.
Also, It is LL Cool J's birthday today.

Was goofing off in Gimp. Made this.
