Patrick Hand Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 In another forum, there is a thread where people posted photos of what they looked like when they were teenagers.... It's not as interesting/funny if you are still young, but fer us older Pyrates this is a hoot..... (well if ye drink 'nough rum it is....) SO to start off...... This was back in 1976 when I was 18 This is a year later when I was in the Army. This one is a bit later, no longer a teenager.... back when I was 24 in 1982
Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 I've got three pics from my teen years at the bottom of this page. Neat pics Patrick! It's interesting to see the transitions of style throughout one's teen years. Thankfully, you didn't do the "wave bangs" too. Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals...

Patrick Hand Posted November 14, 2008 Author Posted November 14, 2008 Morgan Dreadlocke, WOW... you could do that?........Best I ever did was run Cross Country.... but got a good story 'bout that tho.... Awh heck... might as well tell it now, because it was one of those things that changed how I think about things..... My Senior year in High School (Santa Cruz), I had a friend from Harbor High; Bruce Hope.... at the last race/run of the season, I decided that I was going to beat him (as in run faster than him ... just to clarify that for some of you nasty perverts).... Anyway it was a figure 8 track... the first part/loop was 1 mile, then the last part was 3 miles..... It is/was always confusing at the start of any race, but I saw Bruce, and caught up and passed him..... for the rest of the race, he was just behind me, but our coach taught us to never look back..... Well I kept a good steady pace, but I could always hear him right behind me..... as we were getting closer to the finish line, I heard him picking up his pace.... dang... he ain't going to pass me... so I picked up my pace... NOW we are approaching the finish, and he starts to try to pass me.... no way.. I run faster... he runs faster... we get into a damn sprint for the finish line... NO WAY IN HELL IS HE GOING TO PASS ME NOW.... I'm about to puke.... but I push myself... Dang...STILL ABOUT TO PUKE...BUT HE AIN'T GOING TO PASS ME..............and I get to the finish line ahead of him.... gasping for air.... not quit puking..... and look behind me....... I wasn't Bruce Hope... he fell out after the first mile.... it was Bob Barett (maybe SP) the Top runner from Harbor High...... We won the whole match and such.... Funny thing... If I'd have known it was Bob Barett, ... heck it would not have turned out that way... there was no way I could beat Bob Barett...... BUT I DID...... kinda like that Russian weight lifter that didn't know he was breaking the World record...... There are some thing that happen in life, that make you wonder..... this one is about how I think.... As I said/typed... If I had known it was Bob Barett, I couldn't have run faster than him... but because I didn't know it was him... I did...... I love that story about my life... and I sometimes forget it..... BUT DAMN... IT DID HAPPEN.... I DID DO IT..... YEY fer Patt...... (been felling sorry fer myself, and remembering that just kinda makes things a whole lot better......) Patrick, I want to know the story of what happened between the Service and the bike! laugh.gif Bet it's a good one. Awh... that one is easy..... when I was in Korea... Pan Mun Jom... "In Front of them all."... I was a Security Guard there.... Dang... I'm even in the North Koreans "Bad Boy Book" (both sides took pictures of "dangerous" or scary Guards,) I messed up a new North Korean guard's mind..... hey... cool he broke ranks and ran to his barracks .... I'm sure they shot him for that.....Once upon a time I was a bit of a bad ass.......The part that gets twisted is that I'm also a nice guy..... kinda messes with things..... Biker just kinda followed...... and Hey... I was in a car vs. motorcycle accident (I was ridding a Honda 750 at the time).... broke my leg, cracked my skull, and got me the Harley.......... Yeah... I was a jerk... might have talked to Chainshot back then..... or gotten into a fight with him..... him being a trucker.....(That didn't type out right).... but back then the "game" suxed anyway...... My "History" is kinda fun..... I like where I am right now... (well there are a few things I would want changed) but for the most part.... I like who I am now.... what I will be in 20 years from now (other than 70) is still interesting....... HEY... but Rensom.... and everyone else.... ya still gotta post yer embarisin' photos of wota geek ye use ter be....... that be th' rules........ (other that I'm guessing Ransom was always good looking... just with funnier hair...)
Red-Handed Jill Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 No scanner....You guys are safe! Very nice Patrick.. You could take a digital pic of them.

I was a jerk... might have talked to Chainshot back then..... or gotten into a fight with him..... him being a trucker.....(That didn't type out right).... but back then the "game" suxed anyway...... ****Oh, you guys would have gotten along just peachy. He's a nice guy too, but still got in bar fights when he was young. He was in Aggie back then (Agracultural (?) classes in high school/college, and raising cattle on campus), and everyone liked to try and beat on the Aggies. My "History" is kinda fun..... I like where I am right now... (well there are a few things I would want changed) but for the most part.... I like who I am now.... what I will be in 20 years from now (other than 70) is still interesting....... ****Great attitude! HEY... but Rensom.... and everyone else.... ya still gotta post yer embarisin' photos of wota geek ye use ter be....... that be th' rules........ *****LOL Okay, I'll dig some out this weekend and post them soon (shudder). (other that I'm guessing Ransom was always good looking... just with funnier hair...) ;) Thanks for the compliment...I think. And you're right, I did have pretty funny hair!

Rumba Rue Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 Here's a baby picture at 2 years old. Here's a picture from when I was 16 in high school. Here's a picture of me back in 1986 at a Renaissance event at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center.
Rev.Sam Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 A picture of me from a movie I made my freshman year of college. Its as early as I have of myself. I was Ewan MacGregor (Not the actor, but the Scottish landlord)

silas thatcher Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 this thread is entering a scary realm that only the brave should enter..... sorry no pics from me.... was a dork then, and now that time has passed.... oh, well, dang... didn't work out the way i wanted :)
Red-Handed Jill Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 (edited) I forgot I had so few pics of me that weren't far away or had me looking elsewhere - but I found some. Here's me at fourteen goofing with my mum (I think I weighed all of about 95 pounds at the time): Here's me at eighteen, also with my mum (yes, we both had perms by that point): Here's me in my mid-twenties - I tried to compensate for the flash but there wasn't a heck of a lot I could do. Still pretty skinny: And something incredibly rare - a recent picture of me not in garb and not hauling sails or throwing sharp objects. (Okay - so I'm getting ready to haul sails to go to the NorCal Faire...) If memory serves, I dyed my hair almost black for this event, which is why it is so dark. Over thirty years older, three inches taller and thirty pounds heavier than the first picture! Edited November 15, 2008 by Red-Handed Jill
CaptainSatan Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) ...Bumpity Bump Me at 17 on a school trip to San Antonio. I'm the one flying through the air. ...and one from when I was 18. I'm the bloody one How I look today. Edited May 28, 2009 by CaptainSatan As we say in Ireland let's drink until the alcohol in our system destroys our liver and kills us.

Guest Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 Is that a Super Glide Mr. Hand? Yeah.... I got it after a car made a left turn in front of me and cracked my skull and broke my right leg.....(well once my leg healed...) Unfortunately, I sold it about 10 years age......

Cheeky Actress Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) Do we really want to go there?! Sorry...don't have a teenager shot as of the moment...but... Okay...Here is a 1968 photo of my family. It was a Airforce requested photo from the Base Commander at the time. My father was up for transfer abroad (Europe) and we were told we had to take a family PassPort photo. It was the 60's people...and the pixie cut was big! Can you guess which one is me? Edited June 3, 2009 by Cheeky Actress Member of "The Forsaken"
blackjohn Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 1960s... how awesome! Gotta love it! My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.

I didn't do the pixie cut in the 60's, but I did have a mini skirt and go-go boots.
Niko Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 Now I feel like a little kid...some of you are older than my old man!
Cheeky Actress Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) Well, the second lass from the left is striking a rather dramatic pose... That would be my older sister Paula..."The Golden Child" as the rest of the siblings like to refer to her. We love to tease her when we talk about her career. "What does Paula do for a living? Someone may ask. We love to say..."Oh, she's a professional drug dealer." In truth...she works for a major pharmaceutical company on the East Coast. I didn't do the pixie cut in the 60's, but I did have a mini skirt and go-go boots. Really!? I wore those in the 80s?! Edited June 3, 2009 by Cheeky Actress Member of "The Forsaken"
