I don't want or need to know your age, but I am interested in finding out how many Maine Wrimos are out of high school. I'm wondering what the ratio of minors to adults is among Maine Wrimos. I've been out of high school for 30 years. Who else is out of high school?

I graduated in '88. I work at a convenience/liquor store and recently I carded a kid who was born on the day I graduated high school. He's a walking representation of how old I really am. I think I might hate him.

Ellie graduated in 2005!
So while I am (barely) old enough to be her mother, we're both out of the horrors of high school!
