Well done sir. I always imagined "Jack" as an Al Bundy type whose life peak was his high school football career, but you took that in a fun new direction.

Diane of course was always destined for greatness. I'll bet she still looks good in those jeans too ;)

This is great. Johnny Cougar Mellencamp was part of the soundtrack of my youth. Growing up in Indiana, I have a eaten a Tastee-Freez chili dog, worked in a decaying rust belt factory, gone to Bloomington for college, and made myself sick eating too many Michigan cherries on vacation at Crystal Lake in Traverse City. Thanks for this stroll down amnesia lane.
