Make light of it cawacko. I will never forget it. The shit happened and you know it and I know it. So make light of it. You never did understand that story, even after three explanations! It was quite amazing for a college graduate since the New York Times is written at the 11th grade level. When I noted that then you finally said something to the effect that you wouldn't be able with their current requirements to get into USC today. It was a memorable event. I know Darla remembers it, because she couldn't believe it either and we still talk about it. So don't even try to pretend it never happened. I bet Ornot still remembers it too!
It was a memorable event when I said I wouldn't be able to get into USC today with their current requirements and something you still talk about? I'm honored you think of me so much. The reality is that statement is not unique to me. I have many contemporaries (and those who are older) that went to Berkeley or Stanford that would say the same thing. When I was in high school basically the highest GPA one got was a 4.0. Today kids are getting 4.4, 4.6 and even 4.8 GPA's. Are these kids the smartest in American history or is there some grade inflation going on along with more advanced classes?
You throw our grades from 20 years ago into today's requirements and chances of admission go way down.
