Behind The Awkwardness: Cool Runnings
“When I was kid, the movie ‘Cool Runnings’ changed my life. I wanted to be Doug E Doug in that movie. I got ‘dreadlocks,’ which were just braided extensions and I named my pet snake Rasta. I don’t even know what else I could say that the photo doesn’t say better.”

Behind The Awkwardness: Strange Encounter
“This picture is of my ancestor. My family would go visit Montana from Minnesota. The Montana family was much more tough than the Minnesota family including the boy in this picture. He was a tough little kid until he came around the corner and met Cindy the family monkey.”

Up On A Roof
“This was taken in 1979 in a Texas beach town. The two on the far right are my parents. Check out my dad’s peach leisure suit! They were visiting the family also pictured here, and took this photo after church with a camera on a tripod. The family dog had access to the roof from an exterior staircase located in the backyard. This dog regularly ventured to the front of the house on the roof to check out what he couldn’t see from the back. To this family, it was a normal, daily occurrence.”
