Nice Prom Queen…At our 20th reunion, everyone looked great, except the poor Prom Queen, who had put on a lot of weight. I felt bad for her, she was a nice person.
All the girls get prettier at closing time—thank you, Mickey Gilley. Some cost a lot less—and some a whole lot more—than fifty cents!Let me get this straight, all the divorcees (what about the guys?) have to sit in the center of the dining room (The better to see you with my dear) and have to call their shots; who they can dance with and who they can go home with. Just what kind of HS was this?And Burl, don’t worry, nobody else remembers you either, including, dear one, your classmates in the slow track of Home Eco.
Well, some people don’t remember Burl cos he wasn’t memorable…
Others, like Dick here, don’t remember him cos they never saw him before…. unless maybe that class they took together was study hall.
I live 2000 miles from my (now-demolished) high school (in Madison Wisconsin) so I’ve never gone to a reunion.I’m not the same person I was then… I think I’d feel like I’d landed on an alien planet.But Burl and Joy and their friends seem to have stayed the same, and still live in the same town.Every day is a high school reunion.
Way too short tie (he’s had it since the 6th grade); pencils in shirt pocket (one from the registration table); trying to impress by association (can’t do it on his own) and getting shot down (but not really caring). Yup. Burl Penny is in ’da haus!
I went to my 35th reunion. Weird thing, none of my classmates were there. Just a bunch of old people wearing tags that had my classmates’ names on them.
Geez, am I the only one in my class that never aged?
Yes, I think Burl is making up the classes, he can’t even pronounce Calculus.I wonder if Jack is alarmed that Burl has his arm on him.
When all the singles sat together at our class reunion (tables for 8 all taken by couples) I re-newd acquaintance with another classmate, and three years later we were married. Both 56 at the time and had a little over 20 years of fun and travel after that. This happens a lot !!
I went to 10th year reunion…not bad. Went to the 20th, same as the first. Got my invite to the 25th, same thing as the first two except it cost more. I didn’t reply right away. A few weeks later I received a post card with two little boxes on it. One box said “your reservation has been confirmed”. The other box which was checked, read “Where the hell is your reservation?”
It went straight to the trash can. Didn’t go to that one, in case you might have been wondering. Or any of the others either.

Nothing like a High School reunion…when you have Brain Bleach on tap.
