Jobs Held While In High School:

Life guard - the only job where you are paid to sit around. Of course, while sitting you are praying no one drowns. And when they do almost drown, you get to ask yourself why you don't work in Mcdonalds.

Activities in High School:

Track. The Math Club (yes, there was a math club).

Comments:

20 years is a long time to try to remember all the things we did as teenagers. I don't know how we're going to sit around and recap everyone on the past 20 years in 15 minute intervals, but it will be interesting to try.

The upside of not remembering too much about HS is that I'm assuming we'll all be happy to see each other, and that all of the excess emotional baggage has been forgotten.

Plus - did you see Gordy Eure's picture on Facebook? Man that guy looks great! He should be on TV, possibly an undercover cop in Miami driving a speedboat.

POST REUNION UPDATE

What a blast. I'd like to thank Travis, Brian, and Trace and everyone else for the great job. And now, for the awards:

BEST CONVERSATION BEGINNING:
Me: How do you manage to have 5 kids?
Travis Ryan: Well, I can draw you a diagram if you need....
(N.B.: No drawings, diagrams, or obscene hand jesters were required) Now that I realize he teaches biology at the college level, I may have in fact learned something from the diagram...

MOST INSIGHTFUL THING SAID BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN ME:
The award goes to Monica, Gordy Eure's supermodel girlfriend who said: "Its unfortunate that our whole lives are determined by who we are at 16."

CUTEST CHILDREN, GROUP CATEGORY:
Mary and Travis Day's kids - two little packets of non-stop energy

CUTEST CHILDREN, INDIVIDUAL AWARD:
Charli and Bill Marquardt's daughter Ana Brian

MOST EXPENSIVE MISTAKE:
Bringing wife to reunion. Do you bastards realize how much jewelry I'm going to have to buy her now that you've told her all these terrible (and true) things about me?

Lunch at El's for 2: $9.40
Trip to NC: Couple hundred bucks
Having my wife say,"This is it?" when we got to Atlantic Beach: Priceless

PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T SHOW WHO EVERYONE WANTED TO SEE:
First Place: Beth Anne - we appreciate that you were just here and it's hard to get back, so you get a pass
Second Place: Anne Marie - I guess we'll have to wait till the 30 year reunion

BEST COMMENT ABOUT THE TOUR OF WCHS
My wife:"Man, this place is soooo depressing."

WINNER, LARGEST HAIR TRANSFER, FROM HEAD TO CHEST
Bill Marquardt.

WINNER, LARGEST HAIR TRANSFER, FROM HEAD TO BACK
(name withheld by request)

WINNER, PERSON WHO LOOKS BETTER THAN THEY DID IN HIGH SCHOOL
First Place: Dave Pollack, who inspired my wife to say,"How come you don't have abs like him?"
Thanks, Dave, thanks a ton.

Second Place: Travis Ryan. Apparently grad school, running, and 5 kids keeps the weight off. No comments from the wife about the 5 kids thankfully. Even more running in my future.

WINNER, PERSON WHO LOOKS THE SAME AS HIGH SCHOOL
Jennifer Bennett. Hasn't aged a day, been thru war and medical school, talked to my wife far too much then giggled when I got within earshot...

WINNER, PERSON(S) WHO LOOK WORSE THAN HIGH SCHOOL
Everyone else. Including me (thanks wifey).
