And she thought he was her ex-classmate...

Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, 'Surely I can't look that old?' Well then, you might enjoy this!

My name is Alice Santer, and 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 that had been in my high school class some 40-odd years ago.

Could he be the same guy?

Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate.

But 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 1959. Why do you ask?'

'You were in my class!' I exclaimed.

He looked at me closely. Then, that Ugly, Old, Bald, Wrinkled, Fat, Gray-haired, Decrepit %^&&##$&& asked me, 'What did you teach?'
