10 Year Class Reunion

I totally forgot to post something about my 10 year class reunion.

I went! I was fun!

Near the end of August the class of 1995 held a reunion here in Medford. I think less than a hundred people showed up. I attended the first night event and only 40-50 people showed up to that. There was a barbecue the second day and a formal dinner at the Red Lion.

Most people looked the same.
About half were married with kids.
Some on 2nd marriages with multiple kids.

Most of us are still struggling with our careers. Those with family owned businesses were doing the best (of course). I was really jealous of those people who purchased a home right after high school. They are rolling in money now since the housing boom.

I had a great time speaking with the Iraq veterans that were there. It really brings things into perspective when you can talk to someone who has first hand knowledge. Those boys really believe in what they are doing. They say the people of Iraq are eternally grateful and we did the right thing. In other words, don't listen to the media. Bryan is going back for a 2nd tour, Dan is now in the reserves and one other kid from my class is still over there.

Well that's all I can think of for now.

  • I find it highly annoying that people post advertisements in my blog. KOCK IT OFF!

  • I'm on #4 now. What happened to Chase and Rachel? They vanished in the towers of Perdition in the 3rd book. Just tell me if they are coming back:) thanks


    I'll have to install FFXI again one of these days.
    It would be nice to have a new gaming buddy.
