I've lost every possession in a fire, moved countless times, my parents are long dead, and my memory is shot. This information would have been nice when I was in high school; I doubt I got better than a B on the assignment (most likely a C. I got a lot of Cs). So, I couldn't find it then; I have no clue where to look now. Not all that important to me these days, really.
