"Never too Old"

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN GUILTY OF LOOKING AT OTHERS YOUR OWN AGE AND THINKING,
                                    "SURELY I CAN'T LOOK THAT OLD?"

WELL... YOU'LL LOVE THIS ONE!

I WAS SITTING IN THE WAITING ROOM FOR MY FIRST APPOINTMENT WITH A NEW
DENTAL HYGIENIST...
I NOTICED HER DIPLOMA, WHICH BORE HER FULL NAME.

SUDDENLY, I REMEMBERED A TALL, SEXY DARK-HAIRED GIRL WITH THE SAME
NAME HAD BEEN IN MY
HIGH SCHOOL CLASS SOME 40-ODD YEARS AGO.

COULD SHE BE THE SAME CHICK THAT I HAD A SECRET CRUSH ON, WAY BACK THEN?

         UPON SEEING HER, HOWEVER, I QUICKLY DISCARDED ANY SUCH THOUGHT.

THIS GRAY-HAIRED WOMAN WITH THE DEEPLY LINED FACE, WAS WAY TOO OLD TO
HAVE BEEN MY CLASSMATE Heck!!!

             AFTER SHE CLEANED MY TEETH, I ASKED HER IF SHE HAD
ATTENDED MORGAN PARK HIGH  SCHOOL.

                               "YES. YES, I DID. I'M A MUSTANG," SHE
GLEAMED WITH PRIDE.

                                                "WHEN DID YOU
GRADUATE?" I ASKED.

                                          SHE ANSWERED, "IN 1959. WHY
DO YOU ASK?"

                               "YOU WERE IN MY CLASS!" I EXCLAIMED.

SHE LOOKED AT ME CLOSELY and  THEN, THAT UGLY, OLD, WRINKLED, FAT,
GRAY, DECREPIT  BITCH ASKED,
                                                           "WHAT DID YOU TEACH?"
                           ""!!!
