Here's to the Class of 2011

Last Friday marked the end of one stage and the entrance to another. Last Friday evening the Shippensburg High School held their graduation ceremonies. Now all those kids enter the real world. Time to be your own person and conquer the world. Or at least get a real job. Back before my days in high school seniors would plan clandestine maneuvers late at night and you would show up at school and the maintenance barn would be painted to celebrate the appropriate class. My class painted some lame banner that hung on the barn. Lately it is the rock here that sees the paint. Sometimes late at night. Sometimes in broad daylight. Sometimes two or three times a year. Sometimes it even gets hi-jacked by another school and turns a different color. Well I think the Class of 2011 outdid themselves with the ultra-cool Chuck high-top. (the rock is 5 or 6 feet long and 2 1/2 or 3 feet high and wide)
