LOL!!! I'm not complaining, but here I was thinking I was posting these incredibly unflattering but really funny photos, and you and Tom start complimenting me on them.
Thank you both. You made my day.

Hi Chris, That's Debby, who was my best friend at the time. She was soooooo beautiful and the cause of many bouts of personal insecurity (as teens are wont to have. I haven't seen her in over 25 years  but I did talk to her on the phone about 10 years ago. She was living in Ft. Myers Fla. then. My favorite picture of her:

[/b] Chris, here's a short lesson in understanding teenaged girls: they are the most insecure creatures on Earth. Debby was much more outgoing than I was, so she naturally attracted a lot more attention and was easier to get to know. She "stole" two boys away from me within a short time period. When that happens, girls start looking at themselves very critically, trying to correct whatever "faults" they think they have. Tom's comment above is a perfect example of something that would cause a teenaged girl to have a bout of insecurity. Thank God those days are long over. And thank you all for your kind comments.

Plays, I wouldn't have even noticed your friend if I'd met the two of you back then. I'd have been on you like a duck on a June bug, as they say in the South....... Ah, but alas, you'd have broken my heart, wouldn't you?........ :p

[/b] I guess I behaved like a teenage girl my whole single life, I never shook the insecurities I had as a kid towards the oposite sex. Thank goodness I've been married 15 years !

This thread is a bit long in the tooth, but I'll try my hand at posting a photo. I am one of five brothers (no sisers). Here we are in 1990 doing Schwarzenegger impressions. I am the second from left. I am the youngest, and if I was on the far left we'd all be in order. If this works I'll post some other photos.

Well, shut my mouth! It worked. As promised (or threatened): Here we are in 1986, comparing leg hair. I am fresh out of college that year. This is a year later on a camping trip. This is in 1990 again - back when I was much more thin.

Kincaid, I'll have to figure out a way to post my 6 sisters and I camping and beaching. I can assure you we won't be comparing leg hair.

And finally, as long as we are putting in some old photos, here are my maternal grandparents when young. I was always struck by the beauty of this photo. Now, I always think when I see these two photos together, "How did he get her?" Must have been his sense of humor and charm. Thanks all for the photos!

Actually, Kincaid, I was going to (if I could ever figure out how) post one of my sisters and I at the beach in the 60s. You're grandmother is indeed beautiful. It seems she's just as pretty on the inside too.
Gee, your wife looks happy!!!!!

It was a bit of a chore to get them all posted, but following the directions was straightforward, except I didn't know I needed to be patient and wait for my email to give me the URL. I'd click on "submit" and it would take me to this screen that had a search but my name wasn't there. Finally the email came back and I understood what to do.
If my wife looks happy it might be because she knows her husband is finally being a better man and husband!
