    Ahhhh, I'm the oldest so far? I graduated in 1980. They didn't have cameras back then so no pictures, sorry.

    Same, 1980 for me as well.

    1972, when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
    Two pictures from high school.
    MO7.jpg
    and for graduation
    MO8.jpg

    Graduated in 1990, born in 1972 - there were no dinosaurs in 1972, but bell bottoms, polyester, butterfly collars, insanely wide neck ties (like 6 - 8 inches), and Jerry Garcia were all HUGE!!!

    So...1987 brought us ALF, a stock market crash, the Fox network, Prozak, the Simpsons, "bunny boiling", and disposable contacts.
