“What, Me Worry?“

Our high school’s early years were probably no different from those of 10,000 other high schools across the country. We like these stories, though, because they’re ours!

Every cohort can claim uniqueness. It shares its own particular slice of history. We contend, however, that our common experiences were crazier than most.

From Sputnik to the moon landing, from atomic bomb shelters to the Vietnam War, from the Beatles to the Jackson 5, from a church bombing about ten miles away to the assassination of MLK, Jr., and much more. Hell, we’ve got it all, folks.

This lovely piece of work is an attempt to recall the madcap, crazy slices of those years. We hope you’ll enjoy AND share your stories sometime. This is not a bottomless pit, you know.

(Bill and Jerry have been buddies for almost 60 years. Between them, they have 2 wives, 5 children, and 10 grandkids. The wives and kids will probably roll their eyes at this–and the grandkids will maybe one day find it amusing!)
