Senior Class Prophecy The Junior class of 1976 sincerely hopes that this Senior Class Prophecy is taken in a very humorous way, since that is the way it was written! We will now proceed into the year 1996 where we see: Tim Adolph who is driving at the Indy 500 under Krahn's sponsorship. He really has nice pit stops because his wife, Vicky, head chef at Krahn's always has something hot waiting for him. Brenda Bielema is now the developer of a new style of hair curling where all you have to do is put your toe into a socket, and instant curl! Kathy Brock and Kathy Whiting now have their own permanent business specializing in finger waves. We see Mike Calvert in the Army where he has just been promoted to latrine duty. Comer Pyle never had it so good! We are now at the International Kite Flying Contest where Bill Cate has just entered his prize winner... Let's stay and see him get it up. All of his locker kicking and child kicking has paid off for Mark Diephuis, because he is now a place kicker for the Savanna Indians. Mark Domdey is now operating a massage parlor in the back of his van, called Mark's Porta-Rub . Let's hope he doesn't rub you the wrong way. Ernie Dykstra has gotten over his shyness as we now see him as Speaker of the House in Washington, D. C. Gregg Geerts is now the owner of an auto parts and body shop that is called Geerts Gears. If you can't find 'em grind 'em. Robert Habben is now running a farm and on the side he is a mechanic. He is the only person who can tear a cow apart and put it back together. Denise Halfman is currently in show business working for Tony Orlando. This family hour group is called Uncle Tony and Denises... De-Nephews, De-Aunts, and De-Grandmas. Gary Hartman is also in show business as the star of his very own soap opera entitled GARY HARTMAN, GARY HARTMAN... Twila Hatheway has just received an award for being the best baker in New York. She HATH E WAY with buns! ! FLASH!! Penny Holmquist, alias Bedpan Penny , has been caught ripping off bedpans again. She is now public enema number one. Bruce Houzenga is now teamed with his high school sweetheart in their own Television show, Stocksky and Dutch. Mark Hoy is now doing the Hamms Beer Commercial. He is having a little trouble with the bear though, because someone taught it how to do the claw. 14 Richard Kaufman and his 1975 Red Nova were both featured as the center-fold in Un-popular Mechanics.
