High School I had the opportunity recently to spend a few days in our local high school.  High school has not changed, not even a little bit.  It is still just as brutal as it ever was.  It is frightening actually.  All the people you went to school with are still there.  Not literally of course, your classmates are divorced, balding and living in Tempe, Arizona but someone else has taken up their role.  

●The jocks, they are still there.

●The gay guy who is pretending to be a womanizer, he is still there.

●The burnouts or what ever they call them now, still there.

●The pregnant under classmen, they are still there.

●The invisible people are still there and still invisible.  

●The overachievers they are all still there.  

All the high school archetypes are all there. They are all carrying out their class warfare and subtler forms of character assassination. Thank God for growing up.      ¶ 10/04/2005 05:26:00 AM
