    Sort of a Milestone for me .

    50 years ago this month I was a brand new teacher walking into a brand new technical high school.
    20 students, 17 & 18 years old, able to drink and who's minds were geared toward "Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll".
    Being only 8 years older than they were, I wasn't to far off from the same mind set.
    Great kids, great first year as a teacher.
    I have a picture of the class, this is how I'll always remember them, but in reality, today they are 67 & 68 years old, Grandparents and hopefully still alive and active.
    Doesn't seem like it was really that long ago !
    The older I get, the better I was. I also forget my password and have to have Len reset it for me

    Well, I’m assuming your old age also brought on a bit of forgetfulness. Did you intend to attach that photo?

    Can't even hardly see anyone in the dang picture! Good thing Bubba's a tall effer!
    If we all threw our problems in a pile, and you saw everyone else's problems-- you'd take yours back.
