yeah, I noted the same thing when I went to my 20 year re-union several years ago. The hot, barbie-like cheerleaders were divorced, fat single moms with lots of kids, and the homely plain janes were the beauties. Stoners were cops, and Brains were in AA... I agree with alatar... be happy with who you are!
