Tell us what's happened to you since high school
(Feel free to tell us THE WHOLE STORY):

     Like many people I went off to college and earned my undergraduate degree. Later I earned a post graduate degree and have a Jurist Doctor. I earned several other licenses but they are mostly wallpaper now. I married nearly twenty years ago to my wife Cecile. We had two (2) children Ashley and Ian both whom are now teenagers. My daughter graduates next year and my son in just a few years. About two years ago we adopted two little ones: a girl named Asia (now 5yrs) and a boy, Cedric "Bin Laden" (now 3yrs). I hardly work in any professional capacity anymore and I'm pretty much a homebody except when I'm out flying.


Married? Kids?

Career? Job?

Where do you live?

We have two residences; one in California and the the other in Vietnam.

 


Which of your classmates
are you most curious about?

    Which of your classmates are you most curious about?  Really anybody who can jog my memory of those days.  I recall Emerson fairly well, but PHS is a blur.  After thirty years of little or no contact I have a serious case of Alzheimer's.


What was your favorite music then? Favorite song?

Rolling Stones, Beatles, Moody Blues - even Johnny Cash (Remember "A Boy Named Sue"?). I even went to one of his concerts. I think I had two favorite songs: one was "Brown-Eyed Girl",  and the other was "Walk Away Rene'".
 


What is the best CD you've listened to recently?

Frank Sinatra's Greatest Hits. (Have times changed).
 


What is the best book you have read lately?

Condrad's "The Nigger of Narcissus"
 


What is the best movie you've seen lately?

Red River and The Ox Bow Incident; also As Good As It Gets.
It's obvious I'm a buff of old movies.


Additional Comments:

Feel very free and be very open - were all too old to be embarrassed about the past - to e-mail me with shared memories we may ( or even may not) have had. I've e-mailed some of you in hopes of reviving my memories.
