I am from Atl but live in SC now. This past Fri I was back in Atl visiting and I am sitting on bench on the sidewalk. A girl walks by and recognizes me from high school. I haven't seen this girl in 20 years and she never saw me sly. I am amazed she recognized me. I could see if I was at a bar and you have the chance to see someone over and over- you know more than one glance- but passing me on the street??? Anyways she still looked great as she was a Hottie back then (of course I had to introduce her to my wife who was with me) It is such a "mind trip" for me to see someone you haven't seen in 20 years.

That is a trip!!
I have that happen once and a while in different cities. Mostly airports as I travel a lot. I was on a small plane once (about 20 people) flying into a small town in Washington. While in air I mentioned to the guy next to me that I grew up in Redding, CA. All the sudden about 15 of the 20 people all talked about how they grew up or lived in Redding at one time. About 6 of them knew my parents, and 2 of them had dads that worked with my dad. Total trip! - no pun intended.

I broke down in Redding in Jan 1983

Good thing it was Jan and not Aug. Otherwise it would have been 100+ degrees.

Small world indeed! I have a story which parallels yours.
I'm from a small town in NW Ohio population 1000. About 1 year ago I was in the downtown Sydney area nearby the Opera house having a drink with some buddies to celebrate the birth of one of our buddies baby. Well who should pull up a stool next to us but a guy who not only went to my high school but was serving 1 year in jail for B&E when I left to come to Australia. Man had a killer hangover the next morning needless to say.

So, they really do send all the prisoners to Australia! :popo
Just kidding bro! Couldn't resist!
That is also a great small world story.

No Tyler you are spot on.LOL :)
Aussies give me a hard time all the time and call me a Yank and a Seppo and tell me to go back to America.
I usually reply with a sharp barb about being a convict or a skippy or a roo guffer,which usually shuts 'em up. Aussies do really appreciate a sense of humor.
Then again I've gotten into a few fights over the years with idiots who have given me a hard time for no reason and thus I've had to hand out some good ole American can of whoop ass.

I used to hang out and get pissed with the Aussies in college. Was completely infatuated with our woman's tennis player from Australia. I think it had to do something with the accent, but the long legs, athletic body, blonde hair could have had something to do with it also.

Ya think... :*))

Well Tyler there is more where she came from believe you me.

That's why I told my wife if I ever go to Australia that I couldn't guarantee that I would come back. >:D
