Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

Maybe I shouldn't mention I made mine too. You get a little weird or crazy after putting some 40,000 rings together in a coat of mail.

Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

I had a roommate in college who started making a chain mail shirt out of coke can pull tabs. He was definitely a little nuts.

Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

Coke can tabs--hahaha, very droll, but probably lighter than the one I made. My room mate in college referred to my project as knitting in iron.

Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

Time to re-ignite this thread, as I'm curious about the others out here. This picture is only 58 years, 1 month, and 5 days ago. Me, celebrating the big Two.

Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

My dad was into photography and would sometimes spend the coin for color. I'm on the left, the little guy.

Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

Here's my favorite age progression picture of myself.

I grew up in California. These were the only times I ever was in Washington, DC.

I had vague memories of getting my picture taken there at 6 years old.
It was a coincidence that I had a blue shirt on at 31 also.

Missed being in the same place by about 3 feet.

Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

Well, with 86 posts and 5498 views, I will say it if no one else will. There are some really dorky pictures in that bunch. Keep up the good work. Ain't life grand? Remember none of it matters, cause life well...no one gets out alive.

Re: Share Some Age Progression Pictures

Great putting faces to names!

Thanks for bumping this old thread DeckOfficer.

I have no old photos of myself to share, but love seeing all the ones posted.
