Thoughtful Lance. Mirthful Lance. Two sides of a delightful coin.

Drake won Best Senior Mullet by a landslide.

That dude wore a tie for nothing.

It's called a leisure suit, ladies and germs, and if you didn't have one in the early 70s, you were a big fat loser. Mine was teal. I wore it with a silk floral shirt and a long necklace with a football player pendant that we all got at that year's team banquet. I was THE MAN.

Olan Mills backdrop #4: Bucolic Meadow with Split Rail Fence. Is that an animal carcass behind her?

Bobbi isn't the first waitress to fall for her manager, but she and Dale both got fired from Shoney's.

Just a typical afternoon down on the plantation. In a business suit.

Dawn and her recently exhumed sister, Gorgotha, pose with Scraps.

The Library might be more believable if the shelves weren't sloping downhill. Is that a book on teen pregnancy?


[bowlhead.png]
Olan Mills is all about versatility. The simple addition of a column turns this generic plantation intoTara , where, apparently, someone opened a Hair Cuttery. I'm thinking Lizzy?

Patrick broke ranks and chose drag over the bow tie




Is this posing or bragging?

Hiroshima , 1945. The last known photo of Kelli and Senor Loco .

Hey Cuzin,
You are too funny. I can't begin to compete with your picture comments. I laughed so hard I was wiping tears. Thanks for lifting me up!

We are extremely glad that you did not find a picture of us...we would have fit right in. Although John promises that he never owned a leisure suit or had a mullet.

Just out blog hopping and came upon yours. Your comments on the photos is funny, thanks for sharing.
