Have to say I really enjoyed the Halloween pic, Lisa. What a bad@ss! I have a Halloween pic from that era as a gypsy holding a gerbil (? my late dear Algernon became a prop), with my date Fidel Castro.

I've heard of crossing the palm of a gypsy with silver but I didn't realise they accepted payment in the form of rodents!

No! Living and squirming. He's "late" now, not then. Sheesh!

I didn't take him anywhere, it was a Halloween party in the living room.

All of you guys were extremely fashionable in the vintage photos you posted here... Being that I was in diapers in the 80's I wish I could participate, however, that would be an unfair before and after pic All jokes aside the fashion in your time would still look good today! What a fun thread to start Dr. Chitwood

Well, Sam, this isn't just an "80s and before" thread. "Back in the Day" can be interpreted many ways.

18, 1996 university, student bar, probably pi$$ed. This shows the final styled hair. Think I was going for Edward scissorhands.

Ex girlfriend. Wonder what she's up to.

Thanks, Sam. "Back in the day" varies for each of us. I always chuckle when a 15 year-old talks about how things were "back in the day" when he was 12.

Let's see some photos of the young Sam. (Unless posting photos would blow your cover. )

Well she was a bit of a drama queen.

Maybe a new thread, "the one's that got away" and we post pictures of exes. Probably a bad idea.
