Here's a place to post some photos of yourself - from high school, college, or even further back. 

 

Start digging through those old images and show us what you've got.

Me with most of my cousins, Copiague, NY, summer of...I think 2003, maybe 2002.

That's my brother in the Hawiian shirt on the left (eight year difference if you couldn't tell), my mom all the way on the right.

 

Same year as one above, Summer 02 or 03.

 

Probably same summer, either 2003 or 2004.

Driveway of mi casa, Concord, NH, my two cousins, and my nephew on the end.

 

Summer 2004, NY. Mi madre and my cousin's daughter. (Dude on the left in first pic)

 

After rummaging through old pics I realized I didn't have many of myself, since my mom's the one who took pics of me. The scans came out a little ghetto, sorry.

EDIT: Updated 4/20/09 to fix tags.

This was at a suprise party my freinds had for me for my 18th, it was really fun, and I was genuinly suprised.  They were all broke, so the presents were all the food wrapped up for the party!

okay, so this is a painting I did in my junoirish year of college, its me as a 7th grader.  So, I did it from my 7th grade yearbook photo.

 

 

this is me at 2 or 3.

Amazingly enough, I still drink Miller Lite.

 

And this is me about 14 months ago.

In the painting I was 12, I did the painting when I was about 20.  I think college for us equals university for you?  I can't ever get that quite right.

 

Thank you for the compliment even it is void since I wasn't 12 when I painted it.  And thank you for the second bit, its nice to hear it back from you for a change!!  Now post some more pictures of your beautiful face!!!

It's awesome whatever age you painted it at, but it would have been "holy shit child genius appears on Cult" style amazing if you had done it when you were twelve. Either way, I'm very impressed at your skills!

This face is too busy recovering from a night of Hoegaardens and whisky to get a camera all up in its grill...

not too much.  I was just trying to remember 1992 as I typed that, and realized I was still toddling along at that point.  Basically, I just remembered I'm still a little kid.

Okay kids, I bring dude photos...

 

Spring 1996, the Nuzum kids at my aunt and uncle's place...I am 17, and had a very short lived long-hair phase during my senior year.

 

Sept. 2000, shortly after moving to Seattle, a year before I started hormones. I am 22, and had started to grow my hair out, and had this awful Steven Seagal pony tail thing going on...ugh, I hate these photos.

I was  thinking something similar, although something about the way Mickey was positioned gave me a weird impression of him talking to one of his mafia connections (not pictured), and putting out a hit on somebody while taking pictures with the lovely people.

Maybe Frank's shirt, "I don't get MAD, I get EVEN." Influenced that.
