[NMDemDist2]

[NMDemDist2]

85. thanks a bunch, just got to find and scan a pic now lol

[corporatewhore]

2. delete

[Kahuna]

5. Disco Fever!!!!

Bet you can't guess why I'm smiling like that... :D

[Madrone]

15. I give up - WHY?

Inquiring minds want to know.... :)

[Kahuna]

16. A hint...

:smoke:

[Madrone]

17. Heh -

That was my first thought - but, you really don't LOOK like you are. A picture of me in the same condition would be painfully obvious. :)

BTW - you are a damned attractive woman, Kahuna! And the guy next to you? rowrrrr. :D

[Kahuna]

25. Thanks. Let me tell you something...

That man.. was 6'3" of pure sexuality... AND, he had an identical twin brother who was even better looking. Take a look at my former husband...

[Madrone]

35. daaaaaang ;)

Love the afro, too! I loved seeing the afro come back in style a few years ago. I think they rock!

Is that your son in the picture with you? He's totally adorable - although I'm guessing from the looks of that picture that he's probably close to my age.

[Kahuna]

36. My son is 32 now... Here's a current pic...

He looks like me and his dad. Talk about a playa... That boy embarrasses me so bad...

[Mobius]

38. does he have a girlfriend?

:loveya:

[Kahuna]

39. LOL! Errr...Who knows anymore...

I can't get a straight answer out of the boy to save my life. The girl in the picture is his on again off again girlfriend. I can't keep up. :crazy:

He is quite a cutie if I do say so myself. And just now looking at these pictures of me when I was young and him, I guess he looks like me. Now, a picture of his daughter. Or as I like to call her, "future Miss America."

[Madrone]

64. I forgot to comment on the grandbaby!

Last one, then I'll quick hijacking this thread :D

She is beautiful! I just love her big brown eyes!

You must be very proud!

[Madrone]

40. He IS my age, then :) Or close - I'll be 32 in August.

That was a good guess on my part.

He's a very good looking man. He looks like a nice person, too - odd as that may sound.

Is he your only, or do you have other children?

[Kahuna]

41. He's my only brat...err...son..

Whadda POS... No really... He's great with his friends and my side of the family. Not so great with women or his father's side. They are the ones who spoiled him. They're paying for it now.

You'll notice how neat his appearance is. Kahuna wasn't going to have no baggy pants wearing, cornrows having son. I taught him well. The man can dress. He could be a GQ model. Perfect physique for modeling. Tall, wide shoulders, small waist and hiney.

[Madrone]

43. I agree, he is dressed very well.

I think cornrows are kinda bitchin, tho. :)

Looks to me like you did a fine job, Ms. Kahuna.

[Kahuna]

45. Thanks! I'll let the boy know he has some new fans..

at DU when he pops by later. Naw!!! That won't swell his head.. The hell it won't! }(

[Mobius]

71. I wouldnt call myself a "fan"

more like lustful curiousity.

[ikojo]

105. OK he is a hottie!

WOW!I am sure he has a tough time saying no to the ladies and keeping them off of him.

Does he have a good personality?

[ForrestGump]

107. Funny, but

in that older picture you looked like your son's mother, whereas in this current one you look like his sister. B-)

Einstein was right -- time is relative!

[Renew Deal]

26. What's up playa?

That's a great pic.

Edit: I just realized that was your ex. He had the playa look.

[Kahuna]

37. If you're thinking...

That man probably broke my heart. He did. :cry: But in reality, he was an alright guy. He was just a big ol' Jethro Bodine type country boy.

[Mobius]

28. you look like a very nice couple

you are both quite attractive. In so far as the :smoke:. I would never have known. It doesnt look that way at all. Id be smiling to sitting next to a hunk like that.

[Kahuna]

34. Actually,,, That was the look of love.....

But, I'm sure remembering him that we had just smoked a joint and just had sex. Oops! Did I say that! Hey! This is supposed to be about our misspent youths. :7

[retread]

81. Spending your youth smoking dope and having sex is not misspending!

*

[Mobius]

130. I second that!

sounds like a good time to me! :bounce:

[citizen snips]

6. I have photos but I don't know how to upload them on my computer.

that i know absolutely nothing about computers.

[JohnKleeb]

8. ok this is a comparsion

http://groups.msn.com/JohnKleeb/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=12

[Mobius]

11. so are you the baby or the dad?

Im thinking the dad. But hardly a misspent youth. I love facial hair on men btw.

[JohnKleeb]

14. haha no

its a comparsion because I am youth now. I am the baby and I do have facial hair now but I like to be clean shaved.

[Mobius]

18. so were you a cranky baby?

you look like a nice kid to me. I dont think you could be much of a delinquent at that age, I could be wrong, however. How old are you now, anyway, if you dont mond me asking. Im 36.

[JohnKleeb]

20. 16, will be 17 in mid July

I was all right, I was small then, then I started eating and now I think I will be adult weight around 200 pounds, then again my dad is a big guy. I like being clean shaved but I dont mind the facial hair.

[Mobius]

22. geeez my nephew is older than you

I pegged you to be in your thirties.

[JohnKleeb]

27. me? thanks lol

a lot of people are older than me but I am far from the youngest person here.

[Mobius]

29. I feel so old

: oldcatlady :

[JohnKleeb]

30. dont feel old

most of my cousins are older than you.

[Deja Q]

19. When was that taken?

I think I can guess as I probably came from that time period...

[Mobius]

23. 1986

my golden years

[Earth_First]

24. I wouldn't call it misspent...

perhaps cloudy, foggy & carefree would better aptly describe my youth:



I spent alot of time in "parking lots" :silly:

[Mobius]

31. ahhhhhhh... the good old days

:sigh:

[tigereye]

119. I have some good punk/new wavo pix from that period as well

just have to have my so put them on the computer so I can upload one or two. The sigh is mutual. Now I am mostly at home with youngster and don't do the club/band thing much. But there were a lot of fun times back then. My local paper just published a history of clubs over the last 20-30 years and I read it, going, oh yeah, I went there, and there too, and I remember that club. Funny. Thanks for inspiration.
:hi:

[NightTrain]

32. If only I had the pictures my friends snapped of me at...

...THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW in 1983-84. You'd see me decked out as Riff Raff, Dr. Scott, Rocky, and even Frank-N-Furter himself!

Alas, I've seen neither the pictures nor the folks who took them in almost two decades. :cry:

[Nailzberg]

33. Damn, my good pics are on my desktop in Chicago. So for now...

edit: I orginally had a clipping from a newspaper describing a riot, but decided to remove it because
A: Copyrighted material
B: Possibly incriminating, although I wasn't in town when that shit went down. :evilgrin:

So I put this in it's place. Somewhere in Chicago I have plenty of pictures of me partying and giving the :headbang:"rock on":headbang: hand signs.

[Mr. McD]

42. I guess it depends on how you define "misspent"

Age 20

:)

[Kahuna]

46. Reality dose...

Anyway...You were cute. :shrug:

[m-jean03]

62. Where was that taken? (nt)

[Mr. McD]

65. Phan Thiet, Viet Nam. 1970

[SarahB]

44. Me at 16 looking about as vanilla as I do now

Halloween 1988
I really don't look much different I think.

[NightTrain]

51. Blair!

I swear, that was my first thought when I saw that photo.

SarahBelle and Lisa Welchel--separated at birth???

[Kahuna]

55. That's it!!! I knew she reminded me of somebody. I couldn't..

put my finger on it though! Blair was a beautiful girl so she can take that as a compliment.

[SarahB]

63. I used to get that back then

(Either that or Belinda Carlisle.)
Thankfully, for the most part, the world has forgotten Blair. Here's a reminder though for those who missed out on the fabulous world of early 80's sitcoms.

Plus now, I hear she's now a big time Freeper!!! :scared:

[jonnyblitz]

92. you look like belinda carlisle of the go-go's n/t

[SarahB]

96. That was the other one I used to get!

:hi: How's it going?

[m-jean03]

47. Look at this lefty pinko garbage in my hands!

And I was like this for years afterwards! In fact I am still! A wasted youth if I ever saw one!! Save me from myself, freepers! :D

[slinkerwink]

48. I was a BAAAAAD two year old!

Ahh, the 80s...

[Kahuna]

49. What a cutie you were.

nt

[NightTrain]

50. Kindergarten (1972)

[Kahuna]

53. Ooo Night twain. What a cutie you were.

:loveya:
Got a more current photo? Hubba hubba.

[NightTrain]

56. You're very sweet!

This photo of me was taken in December 1993. Most recent one on my hard drive.

[Kahuna]

58. Woo.. Hubba hubba!

:yourock:

[ConcernedCanuk]

52. "misspent" ? oh well, SOME would say that

.
.
.


Yup, that's a Budweiser in CANADA even! (5%alc up here though) :evilgrin:

[Parrcrow]

60. a stubbie no less n/t

[m-jean03]

61. Cute guy!

I like that look :-) Magnum P.I. w/a fro

I was born in the wrong decade, I tell ya :-)

[Mobius]

67. you remind me of John Holmes

in that pic.

[ConcernedCanuk]

75. OMG - I hadda google to find out who that was

.
.
.

And I got a long ways to go to catch up, like about 9,960 some!

"John Holmes died at the early age of 43 but got to f_ck more than 10,000 women"

At least I've outlived him!

hmmm

- silly question -

how do YOU know who John Holmes is? :silly:

tsk tsk

[Mobius]

86. Because I regularly watch porn

I hope you werent seeking to embarass me:shrug:
NOT GONNA HAPPEN

John Holmes


Doesnt cc look like him?

[ConcernedCanuk]

102. "seeking to embarass you" - nope, not at all!

.
.
.

Just dammed if I can remember any NAMES! :evilgrin:

:hi:

[Kahuna]

80. Now, if this isn't a fine sexy man, I don't know what is....

:smoke:

[ikojo]

109. Oh I am weak when it comes to men with curly

hair and a hairy chest.

Wow!!


HOTTIE ALERT!!!

How old is this pic?

[MAlibdem]

54. Me after a night of drinking and puking

The best is that I'm still wasting my youth...MUAHAHAHA


Edit: I'm on the right.

[Kahuna]

59. Hubba hubba... You look like a smashed Elvis in that pic...

Very handsome.

[MAlibdem]

66. thanks...

i'd literally vomited 10 minutes before...that face is my sexy, sick homeless person look. The ladies go wild...haha.

I just cut my hair today tho :(

[Kahuna]

79. Boy... if you were 25 years older...Um um um....

:evilgrin:

:hi:

[Mobius]

68. you look like a young John Kerry

but more handsome. I love men with Dark Hair and light eyes.

[MAlibdem]

83. score

thanks! B-)

[Mobius]

87. would you care to procreate?

just curious:shrug:

[m-jean03]

98. You are propositioning a teenager??

The things I see on these boards, my lord:spank:

[MAlibdem]

115. at some point...

I don't think im financial stable enough at the moment...by a degree (BA/JD/MBA type) or two

[Mobius]

123. Im not propositioning you per say

we could use artificial insemination until you are a few years older. I had no idea you were so young. You look about 25 in the pic. I didnt mean to freak you out, or anything.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

57. Wish I had a scanner...I could top your mohawk

With a pic of me with pink and purple hair from my punk band days

[Mobius]

69. well my dew wasnt even "up"

it was about 20 inches high when fully extended. That is a rare photo of me, in that I never allowed photos of me, during that time. If my mother hadnt taken it, the photographer would have been permanently silenced.

[Cuban_Liberal]

70. Back in the day...

:P

[Mobius]

72. 2 years ago is back in the day?

It says 10-02 on the first pic. Those pants are hung just low enough to make me quiver, which is, I suppose the goal.

[Cuban_Liberal]

73. That was October 2nd, I think...

:evilgrin:

[Kahuna]

76. Caramba! Que muy guapo!

Lordy! :smoke:

[Padraig18]

77. OMG, if you only knew!

He can still make me weak in the knees with a single look! :evilgrin:

[Kahuna]

78. You've met? He could be a model too (like my son)..

What this thread has shown is some very attractive DUers in our repective "day."

[Padraig18]

84. Not only have we 'met, we've been a couple for 2 years.

He's my s/o, you see. :D

[Kahuna]

99. I didn't know that! When are you gonna post your pic?

:7

[Cuban_Liberal]

110. Here he is:

Gorgeous, isn't he? :)

[Cuban_Liberal]

88. Awwwwwwwwwwww.

:loveya: , Paddy! Want me to post the pics of your tummy tat? :evilgrin:

[Onlooker]

94. Wow! EOM

[ikojo]

111. Um......we DO have some HOT HOT HOT men on

the ole DU message boards.


It will be a COLD day you know where or when the CUBS win the world series before I post a pic of me. It would bring the attractiveness quotient down SEVERAL bars.


OH Cuban_Liberal you are hot.

[Cuban_Liberal]

114. LOL!

Thank you, but be careful--- you'll give me the big head, if you keep it up. :)

[tigereye]

120. you are really cute and a sweet person too

if your posts are any indication.

:hi: nice pix

( and from what I have heard from your partner, a really good cook too!) :)

[Cuban_Liberal]

122. Thanks!

I love to cook.:)

[Quetzal]

131. You look awesome Cuban_Liberal

:thumbsup:

On Edit: Do you still have the cornrolls?

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

74. Sure, why not?

Me counting Valium Tabs at a Grateful Dead concert.

[m-jean03]

82. I don't know why, but I always thought

you were a darker skinned guy, WJMS -- I pictured you looking like TC from Magnum P.I.:)

[Mobius]

89. HAHAHAHA

GREAT PIC!

[Madrone]

90. Okay - here's the Proud RAT - :)

Me, Kindergarten pic, 26 years ago, at the age of 5.





Me and my dad, at his wedding reception, 10 years ago, at the age of 21.
I look pretty much the same now as in this pic.




edited to add: You thought I was going to post those horrid pictures from the 80's with BIG hair, too much makeup (including BLUE eyeshadow), and some horrible outfit? No WAY jose - :D

[m-jean03]

95. I really think those kind of photos are great

Something's wrong with me, I still think 80s fashions are great..

Post 'em, please? I get a big kick out of them, in a very respectful way.

[Madrone]

97. Thinking about it - scanning one now just in case.

Think "poodle w/ blue eyeshadow and braces" - and you've got it.

Check back in a few minutes - may have one up.

[Madrone]

100. okay, fuck it. At least there are normal ones above for comparison.

This is from the late 80's -



oh my EYES! MY EYES!

[m-jean03]

101. You are really cute

You look a lot like a babysitter I had then, named Christina "Christie" .

Everyone tells me I'm crazy, but I honestly think 1980s fashions, both men's and women's, are very attractive still! I like tight pants, jean jackets, bold colors and big hair. So sue me! :)

Thanks for posting that!

[Madrone]

103. I HATED the 80's -

The worst times in my life were wrapped in the 80's.

Also, at that time I was still seeking out who I was - the 80's being a materialistic decade and me with a mom that wouldn't spend more than say $15 on a pair of jeans I was ridiculed a lot. Also, I was living under the cloud of heavy abuse at that time - making my disconnect from self that much worse.

Anyway, I'm must more well-adjusted now - and so nonphotogenic that I rarely allow my picture taken anymore. I don't know what happened, but you pretty much see in old pictures of me when the photogenic switch turned off.

But, thanks for the compliment :) I don't have many happy memories from that period in my life.

[m-jean03]

106. Hey, I noticed you have a MI avatar but your profile reads WA state

Are you another Michigan transplant like me? If so, what part of MI do you hail from?:hi:

[Madrone]

108. I am!

I hail from Kalamazoo. Moved here in the fall of '98 -

[m-jean03]

112. I'm from Marquette, in the UP

I moved here in '94 with my family. I visited Kalamazoo once :)

[Madrone]

113. I know of Marquette.

Don't think I've ever been there, though. Actually, the last time I was in the UP I was - ?? Probably between the ages of 8&10. My dad and I along with my Uncle and his new wife went on a long roadtrip, all the way up to Copper Harbor, and back down. It was on that trip I learned the lesson of - never, never, NEVER EVER swim in Lake Superior. CoOOOOOOLD!!

I used to run off the end of the dock and dive in without sticking a toe in the water. Dove into Lake Superior and it was so cold my body went numb and I couldn't get out. Managed to move myself at least to the end of the dock, where dad fished me out. :)

[m-jean03]

116. But it gets SOOOO hot in the middle of summer

-- and with all those skeeters and blackflies --

At these times, that water is a blessing, I tell you! There were summers where I swam just about every day! :)

[Whitacre D_WI]

117. Shake your love!

Just can't shake your love!

[Madrone]

118. LOL - Jesus - don't remind me.

One more thing about the 80's that sucked - THE MUSIC.

I guess there was some good stuff, but overall - :puke:

[SarahB]

121. Oh man, I thought the same thing.

Sorry PROUD DemocRAT.

[Madrone]

125. LOL! Oh! You guys meant I look like a 1980's Debbie Gibson?

HA!

Let me just say, after finding this picture, I WISH!

[Mobius]

124. Come on, my hair is way worse than yours

that pic is awesome! Frosted jean jacket and all! 80s RULE! :headbang:

[Madrone]

127. No way - you were COOL!

Individual, unique, anti-establishment.

Me - none of those things!

[Mobius]

129. well thanx

:)

[jonnyblitz]

91. hot pic mobius!

reminds me somewhat of my hair now except my "hawk" isn't quite that long...

[Mobius]

93. well it was 18 years ago

but my hair is still long.

[ikojo]

104. Must confess I had a mullett before but

since I DO NOT like having my picture taken there is precious little evidence of the existence of said mullett.

[Mobius]

126. well if you dont want to...

However, I suspect you of lying about said attractiveness.

[Jack Rabbit]

128. !!

My baby picture courtesy of http://cnls.lanl.gov/~staley/rabbits.html

[cleofus1]

132. I misspent mine as a Navy Journalist

I'm the one standing! (Which was unusual for me at the time!)
by the way Mobius...you're a cutie pie!
