This Year's List

You'll have to excuse me. I'm going to put on my shawl and sit in front of the fire.

Beloit College Public Affairs: "Most of the students entering College this fall, members of the Class of 2011, were born in 1989. For them, Alvin Ailey, Andrei Sakharov, Huey Newton, Emperor Hirohito, Ted Bundy, Abbie Hoffman, and Don the Beachcomber have always been dead."

I was a senior in high school the year Ted Bundy was executed. I remember hearing about on the news.

My wife was Ted Bundy's classmate in high school. Eek!
