Pre midlife crisis nostalgia

Maybe from the title of this everybody thought it would be Jenn but it's me, Dave, interloping again. So in preparation for a mid-life crisis, which is still some time off but which will involve copious machine tools like my very own Bridgeport , I started to get a very serious case of nostalgia. I huddled over the google screen and madly started typing in names of long lost friends/acquaintances from high school and college. Somehow the internet revolution has passed over pretty much everybody I knew in school, which is a bizaare mystery to me. Or I was such a huge nerd I didn't really know as many people as I thought I did... Well let's try not to think about that. Sure, I could probably go to one of those pay sites to look up class-mates, but that lacks the adrenaline rush of actually pulling off a successful google search.

I didn't strike out entirely. There's Catherine Marie Charlton , who is a cool and talented musician who I went to high school with and stayed in touch with and that's been great, and one or two others who may want to stay anonymous so I'll grant them that. But here's the thing - get with it people. There are these things called web pages that you can create online! Just imagine. Seriously get in touch. Oh, how to find me? Try google.

Always one to take up a challenge, I googled you and you take up 4 1/2 search pages (at which point I started to get bored to see if your father completely replaced you or if your name acutally continued to show up!) Impressive, and in no way nerdy!
