* Brings an end to segregation-he picks up a African American student's book that she drops as she enters a "whites only" school
* Inspires the lyrics to John Lennon's "Imagine"
* Foils Watergate
* Plays a part in Ping Pong diplomacy (1971) when he plays ping pong for America against communist China.
* Starts the jogging craze
* Brings about the "smiley" after wiping his face with a T-shirt
* Provides the slogan for the "Shit happens" bumper stickers
* Lt. Dan suggests that they invest some of their money from the shrimping business, and the company they invest in eventually becomes the Apple computer company (Forrest believes it actually sells fruit).
The world will never seem same once you've seen it through the eyes of... Forrest Gump. Forrest Gump: My momma always said, "Life was ...
In Forrest Gump the Drill Seargeant asks the title character why he is in the army. Gump responds "to do whatever you tell me to Drill Seargeant!". The DS them proclaims him to be a genius.
Would this work in actual BCT, or would you be slapped upside the head?
Being a former DS/ that might work for one day. It was comical, but might save your ass from me, for a day. that's fun. Good night. d(-_-)b
For the record, I have. For years I didn't believe in Forrest Gump moments. Well that has changed. I fondly remember a cute blond girl from my first grade class like it was yesterday. We sat together on the school bus. I didn't have a lot of friends, but this was a rare exception, and a wonderful one at that. She moved away the following year. I was devastated. Fast forward fifteen years. I got to talk to her again through unusual circumstances. She is still and always be that pretty blond girl from first grade!
you think that's odd? Try dating a girl then finding out later the guy her mother used to tell stories about was your dad! We're not siblings but her mother now lives on the other side of the country what are the odds.

Is it possible that the movie Forrest Gump is all stories that Forrest made up in his mind. Possibly he is autistic and uses his imagination and told his stories to the people on the park bench. He has a story to go with the items in his suitcase. He probably watched a lot of TV and put himself in the stories that he watched on TV.
Well that could be possible, but it all came together when he showed the lady on the bench the magazine with him on the cover. If it was all in his imagination there would be no reason for him to be on that magazine.
