I found a picture of me from 1980. Let's have a picture thread

118. It is cool to have a shared experience.

I too with I had followed through with it. The Drama Coach at my high school set me up with an audition at the local Community College and I chickened out at the last minute.

Here's a cool story... My Wife is now heavily involved in the Community Theater up here where we live now. During the second play she was in this lady came up to her and said "Your last name is *******". Have you ever heard of someone named Chris? It was Maggie, the Drama Coach from my high school. She remembered me nearly 30 years later. When she told Maggie she was my Wife, Maggie screamed "He was my Fagan!" How cool is that.

My Grandpa was born on the reservation in Tahlequah, OK. He was full-blood. My Grandma was white-European, making my Mom 1/2 blood. My Dad is also white-European, making me 1/4, which is what my CDIB says. I'm entitled to use the Tribal Roll Numbers assigned to my Great-Grandparents and recorded in the Dawes Rolls, but never have. I pretty much look white, to my dismay, but have identified as Native American on every single form I've filled out since I can remember.

Have a Wonderful Evening!
Chris
