    Indexing my photo collection and came across my old school picture - even then I was a snappy dresser what with the Brylcream slathered on the hair and the nifty tie.
    Of course in the Seventies (that's IN the Seventies - not me in my Seventies)when I was a ladies plaything for hire, I was still a class act in the threads department.
    It's like gazing into a mirror.

    The unfortunate accident when my '76 Pinto exploded and I required extensive facial re-construction is still a traumatizing memory - sorry you had to dredge that up.

    That top picture conjures up images of a door to door salesman or some corporate type.

    yep the 70's were pretty sweet,good music,Hawaiian shirts n' beach baggie shorts & not forgetting the infamous stubbie shorts talk about budgie smuggling,holy crap they're still being made...lmao...however the ones i'm familiar with were straight cut horizontally at the leg & were tight fitting & made from cotton if i recall correctly.

    Oh aldan, ‘a little dab’ll do ya’ was more the 50’s and 60’s. lol

    In the late 60’s and early 70’s, my attire was tie-dyed t-shirts, striped bell-bottom trousers, sandals made from old car tires called “treds” and a meditation bead necklace with a Peace sign hanging on it. My meditation periods consisted of Kona gold and listening to Black Sabbath. One joint and I was High, two joints and I was Higher, three joints and I went to sleep. LOL Them were the days……

    He'll fly his astral plane.
    He'll take you trips around the bay.
    He'll bring you back the same day.
