Here you can see a montage of morphing
photos... from those in the annual to a more current photo. Kind of
fun to watch... and sometimes kind of shocking! In order to see the display, you may have to click on one of the montage squares to enable Flash technology, which is completely benign. |
There is also a Facebook with class information:
Contact!Get back in touch with everybody! Let us know where you are, what you're doing and how to get in touch with you. Got any pictures you'd like to share? Send 'em in, and they'll be posted in the Photo Gallery. Everyone would love to hear from you, so take the time and let us know. If you have pictures, either the JPGs (or PNG, the other standard photo file format), and I'll post them. Thanks for your input! Here's the kind of stuff folks love to see: Email your stuff to: |
A Poem From Larry
I received the following poem from Mark Persall, who wrote: "Jim Swofford brought me a copy of this poem which was hand-written by Larry Sparks and sent to him in 1995. I wanted to share it with those who cared about Larry and appreciated his kindness and intellect."
I had not known that Larry Sparks was a poet, but indeed he was, and a fine one. It seems very appropriate to share his writing with the class as a whole.
Welcome to Paradise Found, my
friend
Let us know the one behind the name.
Remembering Those From Years Ago...
A few years ago, I was sitting and recalling all the people I knew along the way, and especially those from high school. I suddenly realized that some of these people I had not laid eyes since we graduated. People go their own ways, we separate and, for one reason or another, our paths fail to cross. Even for the people I have re-encountered, there is nevertheless in my mind that same mental image from all those decades ago. They've never aged: they still dance, and play sports, and walk down the hallways. In a way, it's a kind of time machine. Or perhaps it's more like a magical Fountain Of Youth. There in our mind's eye, they're still the same youthful innocents (some more innocent than others!).
Anyway, I wrote a song about it. It's called
"Fountain Of Youth", and I humbly present it here.
