Well to tell you the truth I don't tend to look at peoples profiles, so falsely assume just about everyone here is a guy.   Photoshows like this does all of us good by getting us to know each other just a little bit more. And we have some girls here that back in the day were lookers.

The raging debate going on outside the raging maelstrom that was going on inside my head that morning, was whether the number of Jose Cuervo shots I'd had the night before was 17 or 20.

i just wanted the ram inside my head to stop head butting the back of my eyeballs.

Unfortunately, I know what you mean.  There was the frigid night one January when I drank 11 martinis (I hate martinis to this day) - I actually drove home and made it home okay (after I rolled the window down and vomited).  My girlfriend wasn't so lucky - she lost control of her car going around a curve, flipped her car upside down in a gully - and walked away without a scratch.  The next morning when my husband got home from working midnite shift - he awoke me from my drunken coma - to ask me what that was that was frozen all along the driver's side of my car? 

My head hurts just thinking about it.

That reminds me of the time in the late 70s when my brother, sister and my sister's best friend crammed themselves into our Ford Pinto, went to a Christmas tree lot late on Christmas Eve - and proceeded to steal a tree. Three people and a pine tree, all stuffed into a Pinto.

I'm glad I wasn't there.

Alice suggested I should post it. Note - this is not my picture, I found it while doing some picture research, and it floored me a bit. I had no idea it even existed.

Foreground, right. No beard and a rather depressing (now) lack of grey hair.

That's a way cool picture EC! 

And a great picture of GWB too!

I hadn't known or heard of "Throwback Thursday".   Started seeing Facebook "friends" post olde time pics and now understand why.  LOL!

Don't and won't post any pics on Facebook....I'm strictly a lurker.  Don't even have a completed profile with a picture.

TBR is my "facebook".....and love sharing time with the best "friends" anybody could want.

Thank you Lando.   And thank you all!    :beer:

Going through this thread for old times' sake.

Lost friends...enemies made...it's a damned shame!

I'm speaking about the tone on this thread.   That and the friendships lost.

That's exactly the mindset I had when I revived it.   @Machiavelli

Was hoping that some of these #nevertrumpers would tone down their personal insults and insults per association of candidate...once they can put a REAL face (real person) on the avatar to which, they're speaking.     :beer:

We're people who love America as much as they do....if not more.

LOL.  Did you have a bloody nose? 

Yes she was. This was during the global warming climate change scare of 1958 or 59 in Northern Il.   Couldn't get to the Piggly Wiggly to shop.   She went out and caught dinner.
