Flipping through the channels tonight we stumbled on the beginning of a true classic - Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. It was released in 1986 - the year I graduated from high school - and it brings back some good memories. Watching the movie again tonight, I now appreciate the classic quotes all throughout the movie. My favorites:

Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it.

Sooner or later, everyone goes to the zoo.

I am not going to sit on my ass as the events that affect me unfold to determine the course of my life. I’m going to take a stand. I’m going to defend it. Right or wrong, I’m going to defend it.

The question isn’t “what are we going to do,” the question is “what aren’t we going to do?”

Does anyone know what Vice President Bush called this in 1980? Anyone? Something-d-o-o economics. “Voodoo” economics.

You have just love the fashions, too! The suspenders, high waisted pants, big hair and Jennifer Gray’s make-up - did we really wear that stuff? (yes, I know we did) What are your favorite movies from your high school days?
