No, this is NOT a contest photo. But if it were, what would you write on the back?
In those days pin-on buttons were a big thing. Steven had made buttons for us to wear, each giving a Dangerous Writing quote from Tom Spanbauer. I think I'm wearing the button that says, "Establish Your Authority And You Can Do Anything."
The great thing about being kids is that we rarely worry about anything, including how we learn things. As adults, well, it's a different story. Even the way we dress can overwhelm us for a family or children's party....
If I had a nickel for every time I heard "Gnight Johnboy," I'd have enough nickels to fill the bottom of a tube sock and swing it at the next person who says it to me.
Did you ever hear why? Turns out he had Lewy Body Dementia, which is never diagnosed while the person is alive. He had a lucid moment and escaped. Dont blame him.
Thanks for sharing! BTW: I picked up one of those original hardcover editions in a Chicago Borders--and this was after the film was released. When I pulled it off the shelf and flipped through, my mouth fell open. I kept asking myself, "How could this be here?"
Just before the film was to be released the warehouse was going to pulp the remaining copies. Someone on staff said, "There's going to be a film, I think." And they held them for a bit longer. I loved hearing that. Like the governor calling at the eleventh hour.
Love the cake! I can’t believe it sold so few prior to the movie. I’m glad it’s different now and we’ve had so much since ❤️
Love the grunge look!!
Had to hit the breaks on writing a comment for the current photo contest. You nearly became a kidnapper, Chuck.
And I have one of those hardcover copies! Found it by chance and couldn’t resist.
1. Love the short sleeved shirt over the long sleeved shirt... this needs to come back.
2. Any chance there is a contest to win a first edition hard cover fight club??
3. Cake is insane. You have great friends. <3
Somewhere (but where she says dejectedly) I have a button from that event. You remember what that button says, right?
Got those deadlift shoulders!
Right? My brother had them also. The joys of the squat rack.

Maggie is now just about the age I was then. A nice symmetry. AND she lives next door to her wonderful mom.
Maggie is 35 now! (I think you were even younger than that?) Good lord.
Awww! I love that!
Perhaps “my big brother taught me all the dirty tricks I know” 😅

Ross Dress 4 Less. $4. Before hacks were hacks.
Yeah, I'm not taking that bait lol
Thankyou.
The world needs more suspenders. Ill wear some to the Kansas City event.
The suspenders were a constant while Chuck was writing...Survivor? "Method acting" but the writing version.
Did the protagonist wear suspenders? Its been ~20 years since I read that one.
I thought maybe he met some militia nazis from northern Idaho and was trying to look the part for research.
I learned my acute fashion sense from watching The Waltons.

i guess this means I should wear my overalls
Argh! You remember. My friends called me "Weekend Amish."
My homage to Robin Williams.

Love it!
Damn u. Now my brain instantly tries to come up with something horrid to say when you throw a pic on here. But since you asked:
Blood of the child keeps us young
If there’s grass on the field, play ball
ThankYou4Playing.
Chuck, are you familiar with the work of Wilhelm Reich?
