Can anyone remember, exactly, what was going on in the world when we graduated?
Bon Jovi was "Livin' on a Prayer".
Ronald Reagan was up to his eyeballs in the "Iran-Contra" scandal.
Capt. William "Buck" Rogers was mired in the 21st century.
Uhhmm...
Alright, I'm breaking out my old Van Halen albums to try and joggle some synapses.
Anyone?
