The Grant family have been a part of the neighborhood for sometime now. They say they were once backed up in Gold and could never fail. Perhaps that is why the Gold Rush took such a strong hold on so many citizens, so many years ago. Even Custer took to the Badlands of South Dakota in search of Gold. Now, they say that standard is gone. Yet still the change in the times of the Cold War were swirling around me and knew not who to look to, the Grants, The Smiths or the Jones. Father did not say who to find. For some reason in school I only saw the Jones family. They always seemed to where just the right clothes, listened to the right music and drove just the right car. I was not one of these people. How did I know? I was reminded daily that I was not to sit in the row of the Jones family. I was to sit over there with Smith. All we had were the 501 jeans and beat up used cars to show for our wealth. It was so silly if you really think of it. Yet just another example of the pecking order we humans create.
