I have a Facebook thing, too. I don't see much difference between it and MySpace besides the fact MySpace has all those terribly annoying ads all over the place. I can't access any "social networking' sites (besides NAM! which counts as "automotive") while at work.

Hold on...I'm confused...I thought the goal was page 300...? My thread counter is saying there's only 120 pages. Did I miss something?

Ok... cabwy's tanked, gem is sad, MCWill is going to pull another sneak attack, uhoh's confused and missing a zero...

Well, I'm going to take one for the team! There's dust and stuff on the pics ('duh- they're OLD) and I don't have the time to f around with photoshop for the 3000th post.

Now I am going to tell you this info ahead of time and it is 100% true. I was born with a very large disfiguring tumor on my face (between my eyes) so I've always been kind of shy about pics. You probably won't notice anything but the hair anyway!You can laugh at the hair but...

ok stay tuned while I load them up.

I am back,, I took a nap.... ugh..

I thought we were going to post 3000?? But maybe it was page 300!!
OMG I guess one of us has to go back through the pages and read what is what.

I didn't know this until after MCWill seemed so sure that we were on the last page so I counted some of the pages, it looks like there are 25 posts per page? Do I have that right Will??

Gem, I think you are okay with that job offer, it is funny- it seems that the people who will train you find all kinds of reasons to put that off.
Probably by Monday you will get a call asking why you aren't at work????

MCWill left and uhoh did too... or are they just lurking?

And talk about "poof"... yeah I know! I think that's why I like my little Troll so much... ah the memories.

Sure would like to see that hair after a quick spin around the neighborhood with the top down......
I should look for my senior picture, I wore those dorky black glasses that were so unflattering in the 70's....

I think they're back in style now... so you'd probably look pretty cool!

I had to drive out to the credit union, so that is why I was quiet. Tried to take the red MINI which has been sitting for a couple months, but it wouldn't start because it has been sitting for a couple of months!

We're supposed to be going for post 3000. I suppose there might be a way to change it, but I get 25 posts per page.

If we waited until page 300 for a prize, we'd be waiting a VERY long time!

Nice pics, ola! I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I saw them.

Still waiting for perm pics. So did you look like a young Justin Timberlake?

Yeah, right. Unfortunately we don't have ANY other pics of you to compare to. I think this IS you. Very nice! Much better than my fake mullet wig!

I am a bit confused by the mullet, redneck truck AND the rings on the right hand. Didn't expect those to go together.

Who's going to get it? Cabwy or MCWILL????


NO ONE WANTS IT??? IS IT CURSED?

OK... guess we'll just call it a night then.

ARE YOU GUYS JUST STARING AT IT? #2999?

CABWY it's your time to win! And you get to keep your germs! (I can just keep posting edits and never get to #3000.)

MCWILL- the win is not as sweet?

What if I offered a Free Classic Mini?

Oh, 'OLA!!! You're so cute! Frizzy, but cute!! And I don't see anything disfiguring - you're just cute.

Here are mine:
Baby Sarah - I was about 1.5yrs old, and mom and I were living with my maternal grandmother while dad was on a float to Fiji. I was CONVINCED Darth Vader was going to protect me, and made mom put a Darth Vader poster over my bed. This was Sarah's "I'm TOTALLY INNOCENT AND DID NOT JUST DESTROY THE ROOM" look.


At age 4 - This is when I noticed I started looking like me, and never changed!!



And then my 7th grad picture...I had just FINALLY grown out the perm AND my hair.


And my high school senior year picture. Mom had convinced me one more time with the body wave two years earlier (freshman? Sophomore year?) and it finally grew out, but between the chemicals and being out in the sun most of that summer, I ended up with red hair again.
