Time for.... Post A Pic Of Yourself!!

[khashka]

I of course will start:



Truthfully, I was never young and innocent but it sounded good....


Khash.

[CubsFan1982]

1. Me. Again.

I'm on the right:

[khashka]

9. Oh my god!

I didn't realize you were the pope!

Khash.

[CubsFan1982]

11. Yes, I faked my own death.

So I can come back as POPEMAN! :D

[sundog]

2. check this out...

i found this tonight perusing through my old pics... from a long time ago...

sunrise at white sands nat'l monument...

[tjwmason]

102. A very beautiful picture

Gorgeous scenery and a magnificent subject - what more could one want?

[sundog]

117. thanks cutie

:hug:

[Left Is Write]

3. I've seen that picture before, but it's still beautiful.

[friesianrider]

4. Hmmm...how to post a pic?

(technologically challenged)

[fleabert]

87. get thee to photobucket!

www.photobucket.com

everything you need to know is there and it's free.

[Skittles]

5. running this old gem for those who missed it

love that vintage '70s shirt:

[Maddy McCall]

18. Beautiful.

You are GORGEOUS. I love the shirt! I had one like that in 1980.

If they make fun of my big hair below, will you promise to cover my back when I kick their asses? :D

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. Hi Skittles,

I love the spirited look on your beautiful face! And the blouse is great too...A wonderful pic, IMHO...

The face of a gen-uwine ass-kicker!


:yourock:

[sundog]

25. nice pic skittles

:)

very model-esque

[Skittles]

28. I was a sergeant in the Air Force when that pic was taken

yes INDEED! :D

[Maddy McCall]

43. You look like a size-4 pair of...

"fuck you up" in that photo. Your eyes are pretty, but they definitely say that this is one chick NOT to be fucked with.

:toast:

[Skittles]

72. I was annoyed

the base photographer was snapping my picture and he was a very annoying guy

[gmoney]

124. I would have annoyed you, too...

I can see why he followed you around with a camera. :)

[leftofthedial]

37. mmmmmmm . . .

me too

[friesianrider]

6. Me! (figured it out whoohoo!)

I'm on the left, BTW ;)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. Good for you!

And a very nice pic, as well....You are very cute, IMHO, and WHO is that cute gentleman? You look *um* married! And very happy, of course...

I'm glad you figured out how to do it...we regularly have pic threads.

[friesianrider]

10. Thanks :)

Thank you for your kind words :) That is my wonderful boyfriend of 4 years, Denny. Not married, but someday maybe!

[montana_hazeleyes]

99. Hello friesianrider!

I'm glad to get to see you. Ive been posting to you about your trip.

You are beautiful! What a great looking couple.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. Hey Khash....

There you are! I'd forgotten I'd seen this picture...and how could I? You are gorgeous, hot, studly etc...Just how old is this picture? Ahhh...DU is chock-a-block with gorgeous guys....Thanks for posting!:hug:

:loveya:

[khashka]

16. Hey Peggy

It's about 5 years old. I just found a more recent pic of me that I like that I'll scan soon - think same guy with really long hair.
Right now my hair is really short and I've got a goatee and out of control moustache - but I still get carded when I buy cigs. I'm nearly 40 and I still get mistaken for a teenager. Good genes? Bad luck?

I can't freakin' wait til my hair goes grey and I get wrinkles - damn it I earned that!

Khash.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. You SHOULD get carded when buying cigs! You know how bad

these are for you! *sigh* I wish you could/would stop...it is so very bad for you...and I speak with some authority here; even though I'm retired now, I'm still an RN...

But on the other hand, it's good that you look young...when you get to my age, you won't look it at all...The wrinkles and grey hair will happen when they happen...grey is good, but wrinkles suck...smoking will hasten them as well....OK, OK, I'll stop lecturing...*sigh*

You will show your age, my dear Khash, by your wisdom and good sense...


:pals:


:loveya:

[khashka]

26. What a curse to place on me!

If I will show my age by my wisdom and good sense then I am in really serious trouble :)

Khash.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

32. My dear Khash....

I would NEVER put any curse on you! And I'm sure you will show your age by just those ways...because you're an intelligent gentleman...

:pals:

[Kerrytravelers]

12. Old Standards...

Mr. kt and myself at our June 2003 wedding.


"Fly Me to the Moon" our first dance.

[khashka]

13. Perhaps...

but the wedding pic is a classic - you are a gorgeous couple:)

Khash.

[Kerrytravelers]

22. I'm blushing.

Thanks! I did marry well, I have to say. I married a very liberal feminist who is so against *, this war and everything that I;m also against. I am SO very lucky, I try to remember never to take him for granted.


P.S. And, he doens't make me deal much with his fundy fruitcake, *-lovin' parents... just the rare aftertoon once ever 4-6 months. Now, THAT'S something special!

[khashka]

30. Well

You married a major hunk with good sense and he married a very beautiful and intelligent woman. So you both did pretty good, eh?

Khash.

[Maddy McCall]

42. You are so pretty.

That's a great photo of both of you. You look like a "perfect couple."

You didn't find him on match.com didja? :7

[Kerrytravelers]

122. We met through a mutural friend--

-- someone we had each been friends with for about 10 years but who never even thought we'd be interested in one another. Exactly 3 months to the day we met, we were already buying the rings and planning a wedding!



"You are so pretty."
-- And you're my new best friend!

[enigmatic]

14. At The Pulpit

[khashka]

33. You just can't post that pic

without an explanation. Though, I gotta admit I like it :)

Khash.

[enigmatic]

34. It was going to be my DJ pic at my station..

But it was a little too arty; I'm recording a CD of my own stuff right now, and I think I'm going to use it as the back cover; it kinda fits w/ the gothic folk music I'm making..

[khashka]

36. Interesting

I'd like to hear your stuff. As an old Goth from way back the idea of gothic folk is really appealing...

But that pic reminded me of seeing Anton LaVey conducting a Satanic Mass. Although you are much better looking than he is....


Khash.

[enigmatic]

40. Thanks bro!

I'm flattered:)

[xmas74]

44. Let me know when you are finished w/ that cd.

I'm an old goth from pretty far back myself and sometimes I still like to dabble in the music.

[enigmatic]

45. You got it!

I was never really a goth, but the stuff I'm recording now has a Johnny Dowd/Johnny Cash vibe to it, which pretty dark lyrics...

[xmas74]

48. Now that might be rather interesting.

I still want the 4-1-1 when you complete it.

[enigmatic]

52. Absolutely

Should be around October if all goes well..

[xmas74]

55. Cool!

[Maddy McCall]

15. Scanner's broken, so I took pics of my pics...here I am, 80s to today.

At Zoo Blues in Jackson, MS, around 1986 (laugh at the shades or the earrings and I'll kick your ass):



Bartending at the Depot in 1988 (if you didn't have big hair, you missed A LOT of fun :D ):



Lighting candles on my kid's birthday cake, 2003 (notice the conservative coif?):



With a friend's pup in 2003:



Again, DO NOT LAUGH at the big hair. :D

[Kerrytravelers]

19. BBBBWWWAAAAAAAHHHHH

Ok, I'm stretching out... ... getting ready to run

... and I'm outta here ...before Maddy McCall kicks my ass!


Just kidding. I had seriously big hair. Really big. And crimped. With a lot a thick eye-make up. My mother has some pics where I'm not sure if it's me or a '80s porn star.

Love the pics! The hair was great. And the earrings... I still love big earrings.


Just for shits and giggles, here's another '80s icon:

[Maddy McCall]

20. Rock on, Mr. T!

LOL!

[sundog]

23. you're a beaut maddy

nice smile :)

[Maddy McCall]

29. You're very kind.

:hi:

[leftofthedial]

39. I've had car windshields smaller than those shades

but I'm not laughing!

:-)

[Maddy McCall]

41. Aw-right! That's it!

I'm virtually kicking your ass right now. And you LIKE it!

:D

[leftofthedial]

121. may I have another ma'am?

[xmas74]

46. You know what they say:

The bigger the hair the closer to God.
Or, as a friend who is a beautician says:
"The bigger the hips the higher the hair."
She uses that as words to live by.


(I think that the further South you go the more acceptable it is to have big hair. I have naturally big hair-lots of natural body in it. So I figure that I can never move Back East or else I will be teased.)

[Maddy McCall]

49. Hey, I don't have a big butt!

:D

That's too funny!!

I swear, I used to use an xl can of aquanet unscented every week. My hair, indeed, was HUGE. My kid gets a kick out of these photos...and he loves the ones of when I had a mo-half in the early eighties. I so don't look like that now...growing out a conservative bob...but NO BIG HAIR. Who has two hours to do their hair nowadays anyway?

:hi: Where ya been tonight? I missed you posting in the Jackson frenzy. :D

[xmas74]

51. I stayed out of the MJ crap.

I kept my nose out of the event of the month and was rather angry to see that they focused more on that w/ the MSM than on events like Iraq or other more "important" events.

As to big hair: my best friend is originally from Dalton,GA. She has admitted to going up to the rail after communion (we are both Methodist) and praying to God for a return of big hair. She really misses it.
I need to look around for a pic of the two of us from back in the day. Nothing but a huge cloud of red hair and two little faces hidden in the mess.

[Maddy McCall]

53. God, do you remember dancing and sweating your hair down...

with all of that hairspray running down your neck and into your shirt? That's the one thing I hated about big hair, beside it taking so long to make big. And, of course, ringing your eyes with a ton of black eyeliner--after you danced for an hour and were wringing wet with sweat, you would look like you had two black eyes.

BUT, if I ever look back at my youth and try to determine which were my glory days, I'd have to say that it was the late 80s. We had some wild times back then...and I met Adam Ant! :D

[xmas74]

56. I certainly remember the sweat!

It was almost as bad just walking outside in the heat of the summer. The back of your neck would sweat. Then your hair would try to wilt but instead of just falling down the hairspray would coat the back of your neck. And your eyeliner would drip everywhere.
I don't know what was worse-going to a club or stepping off of your front porch in the summertime! In MO we had big hair until about 1996 or 1997. We still have mullets wandering around town.

And meeting Adam Ant would have been incredible!

[Maddy McCall]

62. We have mullets here, too.

There's one guy who's holding on to his "fine" days by wearing a mullet and a "come fuck me daddy" moustache.

He's disgusting--not because of his lack of current style, but because he's a wifebeater.

The Adam Ant story--that's another thread. I still have his sweaty t-shirt here somewhere in a ziplock. LOL!

[xmas74]

64. My old hometown had one of its most famous mullets on CBS.

On one season of Survivor they had a woman compete from the town that I graduated from high school. Her mullet was known all over town. Of course, after everyone saw it Marshall became a joke all over the internet (it should be a joke but not for the mullet).

I've never met Adam Ant but I have a few people that I have met in person and some interesting stories behind them. I can't post them or I might just lock this thread!

[Maddy McCall]

66. LOL! Well, we'll have to exchange some PMs later, then.

Or start a Groupies forum. :D Ya think Skinner would approve that?

[xmas74]

69. I thought that the fun was over again?

Every time you get some groupies together the threads will always turn nasty!

[Maddy McCall]

74. Well, I'll just say this.

I was such a freak for drummers. I dated one for six years. I still find "drummer face" irresistable. :evilgrin:

[xmas74]

77. One of my closest friends is a drummer.

I hung out w/ all the drummers when I was in high school but I dated singers.

[Maddy McCall]

79. Sounds like you and I could tell some funny stories over a few beers.

My faves were always drummers and guitarists. :D

[xmas74]

80. I liked guitarists too.

But I seemed to be stuck w/ the singers. They prefer the women w/ the shortest skirts and the biggest hair. I do admit that when I dated singers that were trying to "make it" I often felt used. They seem to like to show you off as some sort of trophy until they find a small-time swimsuit model.
I did see one of my ex's about a year ago. He's still working the beer circuit and he looks like crap. I didn't even say hi. And I noticed that the girl that he dumped me for wasn't with him either.

[Maddy McCall]

82. I divorced the guitarist to whom I was married.

He had a violent temper. Really violent. He was narcissistic, too.

Since we've been divorced, he continued living his "dangerous lifestyle," and I went to college. He's been in prison for SEVEN DUIs while I've been finishing my PhD.

I'm much more laid back than I used to be. But, I swear, sometimes I miss the old days. (Not being battered, but being with the band, hanging out during practice, going to the gigs, drinking tons of free beer...you know the routine. :D )

[xmas74]

84. The drinking was the best part.

And the looks that some of the girls gave you. It was that "I wish you would drop dead so that I could get your man" kind of look. It actually made me feel good about myself in a odd sort of way that someone envied me for who I was with. It added to my low self-worth. And getting into the venues was great. You could look up as the band played and think to yourself about how you were w/ them and how important that made you feel.
You got to be the first one to hear all of the new material. You got to help them design shirts and (hopefully!) covers. You had a sense of belonging.
There are days that I really miss the old life of going out until who knows when and just partying all the time. Then I look at my daughter and realize that this is the best time of my life, even though I am struggling (single parent) and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

But I wouldn't mind having a night out like the old days just one more time.

[Maddy McCall]

92. Ditto everything you said.

My son is the guitarist's son...he's never seen him. He never will, more than likely.

But I am so thankful for my past. Without it, I wouldn't be the person I am now. Most importantly, "Mom" to a very wonderful kiddo.

AND I am glad that I am past the time in my life that my whole self-esteem was immersed in who I was dating. I've grown up so much since those days, but I would love to have one night to hang out with some of the old crowd. So many stories to tell. :D

:hug:

[xmas74]

96. Exactly.

My best friend has similar stories. As a matter of fact,we met because I was dating a singer and she had just met a guitarist. We've stuck together for more years than either of us want to admit. Sometimes we'll get together when her husband (definitely not the type to be in a band) is out of town. We'll get the kids to sleep and just sit around. We'll drink Wild Turkey, JD or Beam, play some poker and talk about the old days. We both miss them sometimes but neither of us will never go back.
My daughter's father deviates from the guys that I used to date. He was a college football player who blew out his knee. I thought that he would give me a more "normal" life than the other guys that I dates. Turns out life w/ an ex-jock who never got his "big break" was even worse than life w/ a musician who you could never really trust.

[Mr. McD]

17. About 1978

[orleans]

57. are you kris kristofferson?

[MissHoneychurch]

27. for the ones that haven't seen this picture yet ....

most recent picture. Taken 2 weeks ago.

[enigmatic]

31. That's a great picture!

You remind me of a long-ago friend I knew when I played in bands; she was a sweetie, too..

[MissHoneychurch]

38. Thank you

I am happy I remind you of a good friend. A lot better than the other way around. :)

[xmas74]

47. Now that is a good pic of you.

[MissHoneychurch]

50. thanks

I heard that a couple of times already. I posted the same pic in the "not M.J. picture thread". I sent it my bf also. He likes it :)

[xmas74]

54. I bet he did.

You have a good glow in that pic.

[MissHoneychurch]

58. no wonder about the glow

I had vacation, the scenery was great, I was together with my family and it was beautiful weather ...

actually the picture is a lot bigger. It is a cut out from this picture:

[xmas74]

60. I love that pic!

I will have to bookmark this for Callie and show her. She told me today that she needed to talk to you. I think she's excited about her birthday and wants everyone to know about it.

[MissHoneychurch]

61. thank you

we decided to call the statue "The librarian" and my mom took the picture for me. Since I was taking the pictures during the trip I wnated to have a couple of pictures of myself. Actually this one was taken for my bf.

Maybe we can chat tonight. Then Callie can talk to me :) When is her birthday?

[xmas74]

67. Friday but her party is Saturday.

She wanted a Shrek theme so the entire backyard is going to be full of Shrek crap.
She's really excited about turning 5 and thinks that the whole world should know it.

[MissHoneychurch]

71. well, 5 is an important age

:)

sounds like you gonna have a lot of "fun" Saturday. How many big and small people are coming?

[xmas74]

76. She invited every single kid from her preschool.

I'm afraid that she is inviting her summer school class too. I really have no idea who is coming now. I've started making phone calls to double check. I do have 50 goody bags prepared,just in case.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

35. woof khashka

[tjwmason]

101. Now I need somebody to hold me down

Woof - to say the very least.

[xmas74]

59. Are you sure you don't like women?

Cuz you look like a guy who needs to teach me a lesson or two!

[Maddy McCall]

63. Ummm...

If he teaches, can I be in the class? I'd like some lessons from him, too. :evilgrin:

[xmas74]

65. We need to have him start a class.

We could call it "How to be an Impure Person 101" or something to that extent.
After all, he did get the lowest score on the Purity Test!

[Maddy McCall]

68. OMG, that's RIGHT!

I forgot that he had a very low purity score. :evilgrin:

Well, I might skip class, but I'll DEFINITELY be there for lab. :D

[xmas74]

70. Labs would be great!

You notice he no longer wants to reply to us? Maybe he went to bed.

[Maddy McCall]

73. Or maybe he's intimidated by chicks with big hair.

LOL! :D

[xmas74]

78. That is a possibility.

But he used to be a goth so I don't know if that is an option.

[MissHoneychurch]

75. you can count me in

:evilgrin:
I am always eager to learn new things .....

[xmas74]

81. I knew you'd reply!

We've had entire convos about just that subject.

[MissHoneychurch]

83. you know I could never leave such a chance pass by

:evilgrin:

[xmas74]

85. I've gotten to know you too well!

[MissHoneychurch]

88. I heard that also from Joan_Alpern

... not so sure anymore this is a good thing :)

[xmas74]

89. I am still worse.

I had a lower purity score so it's ok.

[MissHoneychurch]

94. I still need to learn ...

a lot!!!!! My purity score needs to go lower!!! I know I can do it :evilgrin:

[xmas74]

97. Yes you can!

[fleabert]

86. of course dear...

me and my fleabert...

[MissHoneychurch]

91. so cute

... you and your doggie :)

[fleabert]

93. thank you!

great to see you! I have had little free time lately, and am getting sick as I type (summer cold, sniffling and sneezing like a madwoman)...

any new pics of you to post? (of course I haven't read the thread yet...you probably already posted!)

;-)

goodnight friend!

[MissHoneychurch]

95. yep I posted

the newest one. Just a couple of posts before you

sorry to hear that you get sick. You better get well soon.

Goodnight. Sweet dreams :)

98. My most recent

[tjwmason]

100. As always

A radiance of beauty.

I really should get some new pictures to horrify everybody with.

[Cannikin]

103. As always, you flatter me! Where are YOUR pics?

[tjwmason]

104. That's no flattery

It's all fully deserved.

You must have seen all of mine - at least those fit for public consumption (wouldn't want the thread to be locked after all).

Here's me shortly after graduating:


After my final exam having been sprayed:

[bertha katzenengel]

105. Khash, I like this photo. Here's Bertha and her new chair.
