Different Hair And Waist Lines, But Still Smiling 20 Years After High School Graduation
By Dell
I find myself on the eve of my 20 year high school reunion, staring at a beautifully composed and formatted invitation and memory book questionnaire, looking back and wondering, “Where did the time go?”
More importantly, I guess, where did that 18-year-old kid in all these pictures run off to? The kid with all the hair (many follicular scholars have opined that I was sporting a mullet in 1988. While I admit that I had some locally based commerce occurring in the front, and an informal gathering of acquaintances in the back, it was by no stretch of the imagination a mullet as defined, but I digress), the “devil may care” attitude, and the 32 inch waist. Where’d he go?

Harford Men’s Soccer Blanked, 2-0, by Catonsville
From Harford Community College Sports Information
BEL AIR, Md.—The Harford men’s soccer team fired 10 shots on goal, but couldn’t sneak one past the keeper as it fell, 2-0, to CCBC-Catonsville on a wet and windy Friday night at Harford Stadium.

From Harford Community College Sports Information
BEL AIR, Md.—Freshman forward Tiffany Runk (Abingdon, Md./Kenwood) scored her sixth goal of the season as the Harford women’s soccer team notched a 1-0 win over Howard on a wet and windy Friday evening at Harford Stadium.

Patterson Mill Middle High School parents concerned about effects of CSSRP, rising enrollment
Sometimes you CAN judge a book by its cover, or at least a building. Parents at the new Patterson Mill Middle High School in Bel Air have plenty of concerns about the walkways, fields and facilities on school grounds. Meetings with school officials are ongoing. But now that the building has been open for a year, it turns out there are problems on the inside too.
The school might have some of the latest technology, but something as simple as lockers are scarce. Patterson Mill was planned to handle 1,600 students and 1,672 lockers were installed.
