I had just dug up some old photos for a few posts on here, & had the idea to start a thread of photos of members from when they were younger. I think it would be fun to see older ones along with newer ones. Yes, my older pix predate digital photos, but no, they don't predate color photos....LOL. (I'll add more when I scan them.)
Here's a few of mine to start with. There used to be a lot more my parents had, but my mother lost a suitcase with literally thousands of family photos when she moved.  I had to rely on the few I had, as well as scrounging some from aunts, uncles, & my sister. Hopefully this topic won't die off before others can add to it.
I'm guessing I was 1-1/2 here, but I don't know for sure. Probably the only time I was ever caught dancing, the last time I was considered cute....LOL 
This was my first car right after I graduated high school in 1980. My neighbors hated me, fuck 'em. 
This is late 1984 with my sister. I still have that ratty convertible, but not those embarrassing clothes.....LOL  | |

My drawing skills still haven't improved, but at least I've gotten the hair under control. | |

I'm a year and a half in this pic. I think that is a whistle in my mouth. This is the only pic I have uploaded on my computer, I need to get a scanner.

Aurora D posted: It sure is. I was driving my parent's extra car, a real hunk of junk that died more than it ran, when I saw the ad for the '69 Caddy. (The Hearse) Funny thing, I called the funeral home that was selling it & they said it was sold. A week later I saw the ad again & called, went to see it & bought it for $900. The reason it was for sale again was that the first person who bought it was threatened that if they brought it home they'd have to move out....LOL My Mom was much cooler about it & actually liked driving it. She borrowed it one night & went out with some friends & ended up at a pub/restaurant they liked to go to. She parked it right in front & while they were there, the owner of the place freaked out. He was worried that it would chase away customers & ranted about some nut job who had a Hearse, then my Mom laughd & said it was hers. The owner calmed down & convinced her to park it around the corner. selfhaphazardyet_ posted: LOL...Yeah, I am so glad I didn't save those clothes. I laugh at that photo now because I actually thought that stuff looked good back then. You have to see my grammar school pix from the late 60's. No tie dyes, but I did have this one pic of me wearing a white shirt with a gold Mandarin collar. 
By the way, all of you who posted kid pix so far, you looked great.  In some of the photos, it's very easy to tell who you are in comparison to any of the current ones you posted..Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 12/19/2008 07:30AM by Old Moparz. | |

Here's me at two years old in 1969 and one from 1989--just out of college and in the lab!
I think the newspaper shot is from 1993.

Me circa 1974/5, on a beach, somewhere in my home county of Dorset, UK
Me somewhere in the late '70's/early '80's, in a Seafire, somewhere in South Africa 
(No, I can't fly aeroplanes!!) Wot it says... (Back in the UK at this point) 
(Dear gawd, check out the hair!!!) Again, wot it says... 
(I'll explain that: I used to weigh in at 220lbs, I now weigh considerably less...) And for me now, check the profile... Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 12/19/2008 08:58AM by B13. | |

Topless! Woo!
I still have this puppet. 
First Grade. Let's get the rhythm of the hands! 
Dear God, that hair. 
19 or 20 here, I think.  | |

*points up*
I think all photos from the 1980's should carry a health warning. The hairdos alone are likely to cause Severe Mental Distress.

It reminds me of this pic, I had this rabbit I named "Painter" because of his overalls from when I was just a kid. (Like maybe 4 or 5 years old?) My Mom saved the rabbit & gave it back to me like 15 years ago when she found it. Then, she dug up his little hat in some stuff she found when she moved a few years ago. There's a slit in the hat that his ear goes through. I hadn't seen the hat since I was a kid, & figured it was long gone....LOL I'll give it to my daughter if she wants it. (Not the hat, it's way too small for her head.)  | |
