Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. Β Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    I was born this day, I don’t know who this picture is of, but the way he looks off guard speaks to me. He looks surprised, but he also looks like a few seconds after he is going to smile big. I hope this picture is of someone who meant a lot to Jaimie,

    My future wife, Irma, came down to my room in Aker’s Hall to check out my roommate’s butt…. He wasn’t there. I was relaxing and reading, which is my favourite pastime, even on most Friday nights… one thing led to another. We were married on April 11th, 1987 and now, in the blink of an eye, we have been married 30 years, have 4 adult children and one precious and very precocious granddaughter…thank you Jamie for these wonderful photos, you are still making an impact, Rick.

    On this day hikers near the Austria-Italy Border find an ancient sceleton later dubbed Otzi the Iceman because his lower half is engulfed in ice.

    This is the day I was born. My mother had spent the last month of her pregnancy in hospital due to potential complications and friends and family had brought her yummy food like lasagna and ice cream. When the doctors thought it was time for me to arrive they gave her something to get contractions started. I completely ignored it. Eventually I was born at 22:40 that day and whenever my mother tells someone that I actually came later than expected I reply that being given yummy food and having a roof over my head anyone would have wanted to stay longer when not knowing what was about to happen. πŸ™‚

    I was born on this day. I’ve never met another person to have the same birthday as me. So to see through someone else’s eyes what they were doing is very interesting to me. Thank you Jamie.

    The day I was born. 9 am. Don’t know why, but I was never curious what day of the week it was on. Somehow, I was surprised it was a Thursday. Not because I expected a different day, but because I didn’t expect any day. It always seemed like an abstraction, just knowing the date. Knowing it was a Thursday gives it texture that i can grasp.

    My birthday too! Turning 21 this year. In college studying history, stuff like this is better than any word can describe. I’m from an Italian family who likes to say olive oil runs in our veins. <3

    This is the day that I also got married. It rained so hard in NJ that roads were flooded and the reception hall had no electricity. We had our party, in the dark. The only lights in the room were from candles on the table. My purse was stolen that night, so we couldn’t leave for our honeymoon. Even though I cried at the end of the night…all of our family and friends remember every detail of that night and how much fun they had just sitting and visiting with out of town family. We are still married…so I guess rain on your wedding day is good luck.
