OCHS Class of 1981 Reunion

Oldham County High School

Class of 1981

26-year Reunion
Save the date:
August 3-5, 2007

First of all, I cannot believe it's been almost 26 years since I graduated high school! Some days I still feel as silly, lost, and confused as when I was 17; other days, I'm just glad I never have to relive the confusion of my teen years again!

It's been a while since I've seen my classmates from Oldham County High School. Most recently, I ran into State Representative David Osborne at a campaign rally where Karl Rove spoke. David was a year behind me in school but it was wonderful to see him again. I have fond memories of a lot of kids I went to school with -- those who were a class or two ahead of me and those a class or two behind my graduating class.

Funny... I moved 3,000 miles away not long after graduation and now I live not more than five miles from my old high school and never seem to run into anyone I graduated with in 1981! So, I guess it will take a reunion to make that happen, huh?

If you graduated with us and haven't heard yet, a reunion is planned for the weekend of August 3-5 this year. The location has yet to be determined but no matter where we gather it's sure to be fun! Check out the alumni page to get updates and reunite with your class. Or hey, drop me a line and I'll be happy to share the info with you!

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste...

Friday Night with Hugh and Friends

The consummate Conservative host, Hugh Hewitt, and yours truly! Shameless of me to post this, I know; however, I'm too jazzed to care. :-p What a wonderful way to spend a Friday night! After an hour or so wandering through some of the exhibits at the Frazier Historical Arms Museum, I then got to spend three hours with Hugh Hewitt and 599 other fans of his show. I absolutely MUST say that not only was Hugh wonderful and the live show very entertaining, but his fans are absolutely the nicest people! I've seen other radio talk show s done live and mingled with fans of those shows. Hugh Hewitt's fans are the nicest, most down to earth, friendly people I've ever met. It's quite a credit to Hugh that he draws such a fan base. If you haven't been to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum here in Louisville, it's a must-see. The museum shows an amazing artistry with the exhibits and places them in the context of the times in a very entertaining and educationa...

Is conscription the prescription?

US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...
