So true! I fervently believed in a girl named Pam Ford when I was 13. She was the most popular girl in my class. She even became a cheerleader and I think she was Prom Queen too. I doubt that we would find much to talk about now.

Now, then, how about "hootenanny"? Anyone remember when that word became totally passe? It wore out a lot quicker than Kumbaya did.
