Still one of my closest friends. People always thought we were or should be dating (I was one of those people at the time), but alas.

It just occurred to me that having a Santa visit a high school cafeteria might be strange.

New Years Eve 1990: Punk was hours from breaking. Some of us could sense it.

I am not in this 1947 photo, but my brother-in-law is (lower left). It is such a cool picture I couldn't resist posting it and this seemed like the best thread for it.

That shirt had a picture of G. Gordon Liddy with a "no circle" on his face! I have no idea what the hell it meant.

Got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69

Can I ask a stupid question? How the hell do you post an image if you aren't on a website like Flickr?

Iago Galdston, Saturday, 30 March 2013 12:57 (eleven years ago) link

well that didn't work, its under "show formatting help" below

a monolithic testament to shiftlessness and lost productivity (dan m), Saturday, 30 March 2013 13:23 (eleven years ago) link

That's not really the question Iago was asking. The answer really is "get a flickr account". Or a photobucket account. Or, I believe, you can link to facebook pictures, but you have to get the permalink.

thanks everyone, but now that i see sleeve's pic, don't think i can beat that!

Iago Galdston, Saturday, 30 March 2013 17:59 (eleven years ago) link

That picture is unbeatable, but it would be a shame if nobody else posted anything ITT so I think you should go for it.

carl agatha, Saturday, 30 March 2013 18:07 (eleven years ago) link

aw c'mon Iago!

my pic is like a list of 80's poser-punk fashion "don'ts"

parachute pants: check
attempt at spiky hair: check
sunglasses indoors: check
spiked leather wristband: check
generic brit-punk t-shirt: check
red converse high-tops (not pictured): check
I can't remember what the green button was, probably the band X or something

but hey, I was 17 and wanted to be Richard Hell but didn't have the nerve to actually rip my clothes...

15th birthday, 1991. Oh, tie-dye. I wore that tshirt til it fell off me. (Sidenote: We had just moved into our newly built house, hence the sheet-as-curtain in the background)
