We do have a "tell us about yourself thread" that was a very nice idea. This may be fun too.

Ekkk! I don't know about that! Those were the years of my big bad a**ed fro! I'm not even sure I have any photo's from that time period.

That's where I got my avatar.

Let's see....Hmmmm That would have been around 1970 for me.........long hair.....bell-bottoms........platform shoes..... polyester suits........ Fortunately those photos, if they still exist, would have to be scanned.......and that's not going to happen...

Once posted on the Internet things tend to become immortal and there are some things in life that should just die

You guys are chicken!

Mike, I think you started the "Tell us about yourself" thread." A darn good idea too.

I'm with Mike (What's a polyester suit? Kidding!

). BTW Jerry! Where's your photo?!

Gotta start somewhere!

Got one at graduation in 1960 for me and Pete is 1965. Hey, how about a before and after. Pete and I just had a picture done at Branson so I could do our graduation pictures. LOL You'll never recognize us.

I have no problems with photos of me at 20 or so...it's only the photos of me now that I dislike.

Jerry · « **Reply #10 on:** June 05, 2008, 03:27:58 PM »

I will dig one up. I promise you it will be flattering.

Nice one Sandye!

I have a photo of myself at age 20, but it was right after I got back from London. And, it was Halloween. Can you guess what I was dressed up as? If anyone can guess, I will scan the photo.

Me and my elder son colin, I'm short of 20 in this photograph and a lot thinner

PondmaninAL · « **Reply #13 on:** June 05, 2008, 05:31:42 PM »

Are you kidding? They were still using the flash plates when I was twenty. The only pic of me then was nailed to the wall on front of the local jail next to a guy named Jesse James.

I no longer have a scanner. I looked a lot better at 20 than I do now for sure.

Esther · « **Reply #15 on:** June 05, 2008, 06:39:53 PM »

Here's my Dh in 1965 and me in 1960.

Here we were on a cruise in 2000:

And mercy, just a couple of weeks ago in Branson at a restaurant called Shorty Smalls,

Isn't he just the cutest thing? Hates being in front of a camera.

The beard makes him look VERY DISTINGUISHED

Ruthie · « **Reply #17 on:** June 05, 2008, 08:21:12 PM »

ok...I did some digging for old photos..

This is hubby and I at my SIL's wedding, so I must have been about 23.

I have some with 80's big hair, but I'll spare you all

This is me now...

Sandye · « **Reply #18 on:** June 05, 2008, 08:33:24 PM »

Thanks, Jerry!

Does that mid-sixties hairdo bring back any memories???

Ruthie, those are both very pretty pictures. You have a beautiful smile.

Jerry · « **Reply #19 on:** June 05, 2008, 09:14:09 PM »

I am glad I started this thread. We have some "Lookers" here besides Carlos.
This was at a bus station for 25 cents. I had just met my Father the day before for the first time!

Esther · « **Reply #20 on:** June 06, 2008, 04:24:59 AM »

Oh you guys!! Those pictures are so interesting and the bring back memories don't they?

There was young woman at church the other day. She grew up with my oldest son. But she had moved away from this area quite a long time ago so I haven't seen her in forever. After the service, along comes this gal and is all smiles and gives me a big hug. As she turns to hug Pete I'm struggling to even know who she is. Finally I realize she sounds just like her mom and then I was sure. PHEW!!

Time does sad things to us I guess. At least it did to me.

Jerry · « **Reply #22 on:** June 06, 2008, 06:47:16 AM »

Carlos: For you the rules are different. we need a shot of you at 10 !

Karen - is the answer to what you were wearing a werewolf? You know, like the song? Woo-o-o-o-o werewolf in London?

Tammie

LeeAnne151 · « **Reply #24 on:** June 06, 2008, 09:54:39 AM »

Jerry, you look like your father!

Indiana Karen · « **Reply #25 on:** June 06, 2008, 10:11:25 AM »

Sure enjoy seeing the pics. Jerry, you sure do look like your Dad.
Tammie, I'm guessing Karen was dressed as The Queen!

Karen

Jerry · « **Reply #26 on:** June 06, 2008, 10:51:20 AM »

It is scary when I walk by a store window and see, out of the corner of my eye, a reflection of my father. Of course it turns out to be me! I am sure many of you have had that experience.

Sean · « **Reply #27 on:** June 06, 2008, 11:03:57 AM »

This would be me at 20 with my big Bee Gee's hair

Cheers,
Sean

Sandye · « **Reply #28 on:** June 06, 2008, 08:24:30 PM »

Looking good Jerry and Sean!

How about some of the rest of you. I'm sure more of you have pictures from that age.

Tammie, Nope.

Good call, though. Think "80's"...Early '80's European scene...

Oh, Sean, I LOVE your Bee Gee's hair.

Priceless!
