A recent picture of me (1957)

[John56{vg}]

After such wonderful responses to my respectful rant I decided to post this picture. I hesitated before because I was not at my best (I had just had surgery a few days before and was wearing overalls to keep from irritating my wounds), I put on my Texas Straw Stetson to go with my overalls and I hadn't shaved for a few days. Then I went to a cast party that I probably shouldn't have, it was too soon after the surgery. Healing took a little longer but I was glad I went. Such good times.

But hear ya go. I judged the pix because I thought I looked like the dorkiest dork in the world (and NOT in a dorkalicious way) and I am smiling and showing my teeth that I have always despised.

But I need to make myself walk my talk, so here goes.
