Sir Kaiser-

Ain’t that the truth! The older I get, the faster the hands on the clock go round! Maybe I’ll attach fan blades to the clock hand to beat the heat wave!

Well, you’ve got me beat – my gown-walk was in 1976. I think all of us old school types need to stick together!

When I graduated high school back in (cough, cough, wheeze), Palladium was considered the cheap metal. We had 3 choices for class rings; 10K gold, Sterling or Palladium. I was broke, so I cheaped out for the latter. This was several geological ages before anyone thought to make P a benchmarked “precious” metal. Think I paid under $50 for the class ring. Dang, let me go clean my Magic 8-Ball!
