The Permanent

“This is me circa 1996. my best friend got a perm, so I obviously needed one as well. Sometimes perms are a great idea, but picking them out will never be.”

Into The Woods

“In the truest sense of the term, this is an awkward family photo. Circa 1984. Failing to capture the spirit of my role in the North Stafford High School marching band, dad thought it made sense to stage a photo of me in my uniform … in the woods … in a chair that just happened to be there … and without my sax. Instead, it looks like I am the young regent of Sherwood Forest, perhaps its constable, given the bobby hat.”

Clark Kent

“This is probably the greatest portrait taken during the 1980s. It is of my older brother and he was clearly experimenting which look worked better, glasses or no glasses.”

Laser Trolls

“This is my little sister in 4th grade. My mom took us to get our pictures made, and my mom and sister thought it would be a great idea to add the trolls into the mix. As you can see: awkward GOLD!”

Coolio

“When my daughter asks why she can’t wear things she thinks are ‘cool,’ I show her this photo from my freshman year in high school.”

The Joy Of Sax

“This is a real photo of my dad from the late 70’s.”
