  It was the weekend of August 2-4, 1996 and at least 400 American School and International School Manila Alumni and Faculty converged at the San Jose Hyatt Hotel. We were there to celebrate our common past, 
all of us having attended school in the Philippines. 
If you were there you'll recall there were representatives from classes from the 1940s to the 1990s (who mentioned something about "lotsa totoys and geezers"?).

Nancy: You know, the airport shuttle bus had a pinoy driber that noone could understand - except por me. One girl got off the bus in total confusion, but I felt like I was in a Makati Taksi the minute I heard "Where you goeeeng, mam?". I replied, pointing with my lips "ober dere, to de hotel!" 

Joe Quirino: "And watabout you Tisya?" 

Tisha: When we got to the pre-reunion party of Dick Olson ('65) - aka "Wheelchair Witchard" - we were greeted at the front door by this sign:

All others enter at your own risk
(this means YOU TISHA)!
