Duffbert's Random Musings

Comments

1 - Enlisted in the Marines, boy if you want to feel really old, in 1982 I started secondary school, not sure what that is in America, Junior High maybe?

2 - We were married in October of 1982. This year will be our 23rd anniversary.

And let's see... in 1982, I think my dad had already been retired from the Corps for about five years after putting in 26.

5 - Sue hasn't really seen Tom in a few years, because he is behind a pile of books, reviewing them. Although, she has glimpsed him (or what she thinks is him) taking boxes of books from the UPS man to the basement.

6 - I think you had as much as the rest of us -- you just used it up all at once!

7 - Tom,

I think you look totally fly! I do have to have to agree with Jonvon that the first thoughts I had were "oh oh oh... Mr. Kotter......".

Thanks for sharing!

PS - I would like to see pics of Ben L. back from 1982... Ben?

8 - The perspective in the picture with the gray line near your head, makes it look like your hair is touching the ceiling. Either you look like you are in a small room, or you have some big hair!

9 - LOL... It was big, but not *that* big... There was side lighting on the wall set into an extended section that came down from the ceiling. While the ceiling was slanted, it didn't come down quite that far.

10 - What the ....?!?!?! Wow! Tom has hair, and Sue's hair is DARK? Hmmm....Well there, Mr Duffbert, in your case, I do think the loss of hair was a GOOD thing!

11 - Hair - the good old days!!! I got the worst of both worlds. I inherited my Dad's thinning hair and my Mom's premature grey hair. By the time I was 35 I looked 60 and expected a cub scout to help me across the street. I've had people ask me how old my grandson (he really is my 7 yr old son) is and how long I've been retired!!! I make my wife look younger and people think she's a trophy wife. At least you are famous!!!!

14 - I was planning on posting a smart-ass comment about your looks, but something else caught my attention. You said this photo was taken prior to February 1982 -that means you have been together for at minimum of 23 years. Congratulations, my friend.

Ok, now to make you feel old: February 1982 also has some historical significance to me -that's when I enlisted in the Marine Corps.

-Devin.
