Chapter 1968 An Unlikely Encounter:>55

So I was standing on the stage that we put on the football field. Our facilities are pretty damn accommodating. Mostly because, hey, why buy a new set of class books when you can refurbish the stadium every year? Oh wait... anyway. The graduating class is sitting in chairs along the field, and the families are in the stands. The speeches had already been spoken, and the principal stood behind and to the side of me by several feet, behind a podium. As he called out the names, students filed up to the stage from either the left or the right. I handed out diplomas for one side, and a physics teacher covered the other.
