Did you ever feel guilty for looking at others your own age and thinking...surely I cannot look that old.....sure you've done it........ Enjoy this short story!!
Mary was waiting for her first appointment in the reception room of a new dentist, and suddenly noticed
his certificate, which bore his full name. Suddenly, she remembered a tall, handsome boy with the same name who had been in her high school class some 40+ years ago. Upon seeing him, however, she quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was far too old to have been her classmate. After he had examined her teeth, she asked him if he had attended the local high school.
"Yes," he replied.
When did you graduate?" she asked.
He answered, "In 1954."
"Why, you were in my class!" she exclaimed.
He looked closely and then asked, "What did you teach?"
