[DRob]

Dang, you chould change your handle to CRob... for Cradle Robber!

Yep. I was a junior in high school when she was born but we didn't start dating until I was a senior..............citizen.

We're both doing well. I'm retired. She's a nurse. Her office closed a couple of weeks ago but she's going back to work in another area of the hospital this week.

If your Mom bought your jeans 6 inches too long and folded up the cuffs, then ironed some kind of a heat sealing patch on the inside of the knees to make them last longer, you may be a Boomer (or maybe just grew up poor).
It took six months to break in those patches enough to be able to bend the knee and not goose step march when you walked.
Summer of 52 and not so much as a sneeze so far.

Had those forced burr haircuts. Really hated those. Now I love em since they are low maintenance.

I had what I think they called the "Hollywood Burr". Burred all over but left a little bit of bangs. Now it's burred all over (what's left of it anyway) and for the same reason. Haven't owned a comb in probably 25 years or more.

Look at you! You look like you could've had a leather jacket... maybe a t-shirt with a pack of smokes rolled up in one sleeve.

That isn't me. Just a throw-back pic of some 50's flattop with sidewalls/fenders.

My brother did get a flattop mohawk one summer.

And then 30 years later it made a comeback... sorta.

One of my senior pictures. I tried to do the Farrah thing, but my hair was just too straight and fine.

 

[Brad69]

I am also in the 1980 class. That was a good year from what I remember.

 

[Brad69]

I was only eleven in 1980!

But still playing lawn darts !

Modern people would pass out at the site of them that and not wearing seat belts.

We've already established that you're older then the invention of the calendar.
