He was blown away when he saw my Twitter stream and your name. I guess considering we're in Boston (as is @pistachio) it's not all that crazy to be connected in this manner but it's still a fun story - and IMHO, another positive attribute for social media. Now, if I start coming across MY high school mates from Lander, Wyoming on Twitter, THAT would be a small world :-) Rich and I would love to see you in September so definitely stay in touch about your travel plans. All my best, Chris JJ,

Me over. With a feather. Are you freaking kidding me? You guys were just a year ahead of me? My god, I kind of hated GHS. But this is surreal. I never connected all that well with people in Glastonbury and I lived there for way, way too long (my whole life 'til I graduated & fled). I mainly hung with the YSB crew, but also did a bunch of extracurriculars with AFS, Common Sense, Choir, and an Environmental Group founded after you left... I was in some plays and organized recycling at the school in 1990. Thanks for the flashback. Wow. Crazy. I know Christine too, but we never discovered this connection. (wanders off to sing "it's a small world after all...") Knock. Me over. With a feather.
