Please take a few minutes to visit the "In Memory" section.  It would be great if you could add any personal stories about our classmates who have passed away.  


 Our lives in the 80's vs. our lives now..


Sociology exam – Prostate exam.
 
Going to sleep at 4 a.m. – Waking up at 4 a.m.
 
Keg parties – Tupperware parties.
 
Long hair – No hair.
 
Hot babes – Hot flashes.
 
Hours of enjoyment with a $4 Fris­bee – Hours of frustration with a $900 set of golf clubs.
 
Progressive politics – Progressive bifocals.
 
Getting high – Getting high blood pressure.
 
Beer kegs that flowed to the max – Bladders in desperate need of FLO­MAX.
 
Lying to our parents about what we did in high school – Lying to our children about what we did in high school.
 
Starting Saturday night at 10 p.m. – Concluding Saturday night at 10 p.m.
 
Studying ancient history – Remem­bering ancient history.
 
Thinking people in their 30s were old timers – Thinking people in their 30s are young pups.
 
Hundreds of vinyl albums stored in a heavy wooden crate – Hundreds of digital albums stored in a 2-ounce iPod.
 
Hoping we wouldn’t have to move back in with our parents – Hoping our kids won’t move back in with us.
 
Wishing our parents would leave us alone – Wishing our kids would call once in a while.
 
Deciding where to live – Deciding where to be buried.
 
Trying to discover the meaning of life – Trying to discover the meaning of death.
 
Focused on finding happiness – Re­alizing happiness comes when we stop focusing on it.
 
Now that the Classes of 81-85 ac­quired age and guile, we, too, under­stand that the experience gained during the past  decades far out­weighs youth, innocence, and especial­ly those hideous 1980s-style haircuts.
 
Which brings us to our final comparison: Thinking people in their 50s were ancient fossils – Knowing people in their 50s are just hitting their prime.
 
Well, at least that’s our story and we’re sticking to it.
