    Okay ... between the plaid pants, knit sweater, 1930s street urchin shoes and those socks! Man o' man, those socks ...

      Well, here comes fashion central from me. These pics will surprise a lot of people here because there actually was a time where I had hair. Even at five years old you can see the high hairline. I was destined to look like Dr. Evil. I guess I was pretty slick for the time. Ladies like a man in a suit.







      I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

      If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

        As promised - low quality scans from a low quality guy. I just grabbed the most interesting ones, regardless of attire:







        The Olan Mills pic shows me after my corpse was exhumed from the pond and rushed for photos after a quick revival.

        The pic with the OSU shirt is for wee Bill - brown and orange drip bowls in the hutch:-)

        Edited to add it's hard to tell in the last pic, but that shirt is fuzzy like a towel. It was one of my faves. I miss the shirt, and my hair.

          Scott, love the shot with the jacket and the book. Did it have leather patches on the elbows? You need a pipe.

          Steve...you had Robin Underoos? MAN, I wanted those. I just wanted that shirt! I never could find it.

          I miss my hair too...especially the back of it.

            I wore those underoos as if they were a costume....suitable for public viewing. I showed some of these pics around the office today and the "You had hair!" comments were just HILARIOUS.

              You gotta know that my kid brother (well, actually half-brother), wore Superman Underoos, plus tights, a homemade cape and red rainboots for 3 years in a row at Halloween.

                Scott, you were born to be a catalog child! I swear you look like you walked straight outta the JC Penney catalog, circa 1973!

                    Haha! Some great updates since I last checked in!

                    Regardless of the style, I miss the days when we kids dressed up in suits and went down to our local Sears, Montgomery Ward, or what have you, to get our pictures made. It was a family event!

                            You look like Johnny Whitaker in the last photo.
