You wanna know how to get Capone? They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. THAT’S the Chicago way, and that's how you get Capone, Charlie Brown.

In my actual graduating class was the guy who wrote “Orphan”, “Red Riding Hood”, and both Aquaman movies, among a few others. He was also, and remains, one of my best friends.
Who was in your high school graduating class, +/- two years, that would be of interest?
For example, I took a basketball class and graduated w/all-time 8th man Jud Buechler (look it up), and may have followed Stephanie Seymour (not sure if she still WENT to school after I moved there).
