Do you think you look your age?

Lakeland, FL(Zone 9b)

Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, "Surely I can't look that old?"

Well ... You'll love this tale from a woman!!

I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist. I noticed his DDS diploma, which bore his full name. Suddenly, I remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name had been in my high school class nearly 40 years ago. Could he be the same guy that I had a secret crush on, way back then? Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, grey-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate.


After he examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended Morgan Park High School.
"Yes. Yes, I did. I'm a Mustang," he gleamed with pride.
"When did you graduate?" I asked.
He answered, "In 1968. Why do you ask?"
"You were in my class!" I exclaimed.
He looked at me closely.



Then, that ugly, old, wrinkled, bald, fat, grey, decrepit son-of-a-gun asked,

"What did you teach?"
