...also discovered, to my surprise, that I'm a lot like the person I was in high school. Several women told me about comments I'd written in their yearbooks about their breasts. When I went up to a woman named Dana and told her that she looked exactly the same, she said, "But you never thought I looked good." I, for some reason, said, "But at least you don't look any worse," and walked away. Coors Lights can really pile...

...Cassandra totally didn't get why it was funny for her to stay with my mom in New Jersey while I went out with a hooker. She wasn't even willing to dress like a hooker, though she did tell me not to wear a blazer because it would look as if I was trying too hard to impress my classmates. I thought I had already covered that by writing a column about my life in TIME magazine and appearing on every TV show that asks me, but apparently the blazer pushed me over the edge.

...Crowne Plaza in Edison, N.J. - perhaps the perfect adult analogue to being in high school - the people who worked for Reunions Unlimited Inc. asked me for $244 in cash. This seemed like a lot for a bad buffet, Coors Light and finding out what people I knew as teenagers look like, how many kids they have and what they do for a living.

(See how Facebook is affecting school reunions...

...Coors Lights, this does not bother you at all. The only downside is that your good friend Colleen, who prepartied pretty hard, spends much of the night yelling from across the room, "Oh, it's Joel Stein! He's too famous to talk to me!" followed quickly by "Oh, look! The famous Joel Stein has come to talk to me!" (See the best social networking applications...

...left a little before midnight, when Cassandra got bored, even though Jeff's wife didn't look bored at all. But most people closed the party, then the bar and then went upstairs to Colleen's suite. And apparently the potent mixture of nostalgia, Coors Light and a $122 investment caused some possibly otherwise married people to hook up. This, it turns out, is the reason spouses go to reunions. I'm definitely going to Cassandra's. Sure, it was an all-girls school, but I'm not taking any chances...
