The way we were - pics

[johnnyc]

The "Remember when..." thread got me thinking how lots has changed over the years, besides our Jeeps.

So here's the game. Post a picture of yourself that was at least 10 years ago. And I think that this should stay in the SoCal Chapter forum, since we all know what everyone looks like today.

I'll start. Circa 1989.

Holy Crap!

I will need to go dig up an picture and scan it in. Probably will be when I first got married or was in the Navy. About 40 lbs ago....

[Jump This]

I look just the same as I did when I got married.
Well, maybe a few more grey hairs, shorter hair, maybe 15lbs heavier.....

:D

and I don't have any way of scanning old pictures of me....

Can't wait to see that! :) Ask Nicole what I look like now, if not Asian.

Mike, that's nice. I always dreamt of having a beard and goatee. But I've never been able to grow facial hair.

And Remi...damn. You look like Sequoia's long-lost brother.

crap, to me you actually look OLDER in that picture. That's crazy. It's the hair.

[johnnyc]

Thanks Mike G. :)

I've actaully changed several times over the years.

Just a few years before that picture, I was a 230 pound bouncer. Then I worked for the USPS and got into shape. That's when the picture was taken.

Then I went to work in Japan for two years, which is when my hair fell out in clumps (lots of stress). I have some god awful pictures of me with thinning hair and thick glasses. Gained some weight back. I looked like crap. Unrecognizable.

Came home, started shaving my head, had eye surgery, worked for FedEx for 10 years, and lost weight again.

And no, I'm not posting any pics of me during my time in Japan.
