Staff Writer CLASS of ’98 PROPHECY: The introduction to this prophecy reads in part as follows: It is often fun to speculate concerning what will happen.....to our classmates. Sometimes it is easy to make predictions, because some people are so “easy to read.” However, sometimes it is extremely difficult to know what will happen to our friends, because they are mysterious or just shy. Here.....is what will actually happen to the entire class by the year 2018.....“Don’t say you don’t believe; just hook up that rooster and, baby, watch that boxcar roll!”
