Mom sent this to me a while back, surprised she never used it for blackmail. Newest photo of me that I can find, I'll look around some more.

Ah, a newer one, from around 1980. Miss the hair, sometimes. Wish it would grow at all, all the time.

Is that a Frank Zappa "Apostrophe" album in the background? Who you jiving with that cosmic debris?

Yep, but I have no idea who the album to the right is by. Not mine. I didn't notice what the plant was between the records either, until I posted this photo. That was probably mine. I blame society.

Reminds me of a song...

"Yankee Doodle went to town
A-riding on a pony
Stuck a feather in his hat
And called it macaroni.

Yankee Doodle, keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy."

Great. Now I have guys from Canada calling me cute. That was the Death Knell title when you were trying to pick up a girl in High School. That, and "sweet". Some people at this site might just want to use that against me. Thanks, Canada
Wish I could have detected the house just behind me in the photo.

UMMM Carl ...

I have a question ... What's this ... ... ...

Funny how times change. Every time we use to make a pot bust we'd drop a few seeds in the potted plants around the police station. There was always grass growing at the PD if nowhere else. And you'd be surprised how many otherwise innocent citizens got busted for cultivation of marijuana incidental to some unrelated thing. Cultivation was a felony in OK and we'd go on a report call and dang it there wouldn't be a potted cannibus plant growing right on the kitchen table! Being a felony we couldn't overlook it legally. I must admit I flushed a few and gave a stern warning that could have got me fired if anyone had ever found out. M nty

Carl, I notice in your profile you don't give your age. Let's do some detective work. That album came out in 1974, you look about 18?? But you could have had the album a couple of years..... I'd say 50-53?? How did I do?

I was 22 in that photo. Does that help? It was the girls plant. I swear! Man!

 

[richm]

Oh!! I got it now, Frank Zappa , Led Zeppelin tickets?? Must be 52... Actually I just noticed the "57" at the end of your screen name, DUH!! Rich.

Nope. Neither, or neither, whichever way you pronounce it.

Thanks for the "no cute" reply. Yeah, when I started to look like an aging Dead Head, the hair was time to go.
