Over the weekend I flew south and spent some time skiing with my roommates from college. It was sort of amazing how quickly we reverted to our old selves. Or as one of the roommates termed the phenomena, 'muscle memory'. Kind of amazing that such a large group of us got together over a 1/4 century after graduation, and it was even more amazing how little anyone had changed.
Older, grayer for sure, and no one wanted to stay up until 4 AM in a bar, but all the jokes and personalities remained the same. About the biggest change is that every once in a while someone would drop out to call work or home on their cell phone. That NEVER happened back in the day. Patrick

Ah yes - the ubiquitous cell phone. Eric and Lanny texting the wives |
