1982...

Ok,

So we are a little weak on the recent pictures scene. We are missing a camera. Our really nice one is somewhere in Annie's parents house...it has a habit of staying there whenever we visit. And we have talked about getting a smaller more convenient one but it has become an economically sensitive question of late...maybe one for the economic stimulus package... regardless we cant show you whats happening in our lives right now.... so I thought I would go way back and show you what you really want to see.... pictures of us in the early eighties!!! Yes, bands like U2, Mike and the Mechanics, the Cars and Men at Work were cranking out the tunes, Disco was on the down turn (it was time). All of my favorite artists were making really awful and sell-out albums that were an attempt to stay popular but were about as genuine as pleather. The genesis of rap and hip-hop was welling up in urban America. Reagan had been president for a few years and was coming into his own. My mom was pregnant with my brother Daniel. Apple and IBM were just starting to gain momentum in sales of new fangled home computers. Gas was about 90 Cents a gallon. The up and coming release of Return of the Jedi was all the buzz, and the average house price was $23,000 ..... hello!!!!

Are we too young to have a "good ole'days"
