So...I regularly go to 9news.com which is a local news station here in Denver. I check throughout the day for weather, traffic, and news updates. But today it was kinda freaky! There's an article about I girl I knew in Jr. High!!!! I sat next to her in Earth Science. She was very popular and very pretty.
She didn't go to the same high school as me so I never knew what happened to her....
...but now I know
Here's the link to her story. There's also a video you can view in conjunction with the story.
Actually, once when Matt and I were first dating we were watching the news. A police officer had been arrested for brutality. It was the guy that took me to my freshman homecoming.

Yep. Guy that was a good friend in highschool married this girl in our class. They had two children. She disappeared one night after they argued. He admitted that happened. Found her 3 years later, dead. Could not find any physical evidence linking him to the murder (or so they have ruled it), no markings on the remains (what there were) as to the cause of death but somehow a jury (of his peers, yea right) convicted him of the crime. He is in jail for life.
When they run you out of town make it look like you are leading the parade.

so I guess it counts when people you know are listed in the paper as fugitives the police are after too........
Well...(said in my best Bubba voice) I've been on sabbatical.

Of course! Actually, I think one of my boyfriends from high school was on the news 'cause he was busted for meth.

I sure hung out with some real winners, eh?
no worse than the ones I ran with - TRUST ME ON THAT.

When I go home to my parents house, I always scan the local paper to see if I recognize any names in the arrests. I've seen a couple I know get busted for meth... and one dude that used to live down the road from me that I used to hang with was getting front page headlines for escaping from police officers and being on the run for a few months. They ended up finding him wandering the streets of this tiny town at 3am stoned out of his mind.
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'
Sounds like what I used to do Ann. When I went back to my hometown on a regular basis I always checked out who got married and who got busted. It's nice to go there now and basically don't know either
Well...(said in my best Bubba voice) I've been on sabbatical.
Ick! The people getting married really scare me! And the people they are getting married to scare me! And that they might eventually reproduce really scares me!! Thus the reason I will never move home to live amongst them and their offspring!

Quite a story! I got teary watching the video too.
Aside from the guy I nominated in high school for
Junior Girls Club sweetheart now being the Duval
County Tax Collector, I don't think I know of many
people from my distant past being "noteworthy".
(I still refuse to make checks out to the agency with
his name. It's just too weird. Nice guy, though!)
