John reminices, “I had occasion to look at some pictures of myself as a teenager recently, which is the cause of this week's revealing Weekend Assignment:
Weekend Assignment #149: Reveal Your Teenage Fashion Disasters! Yes, whether it's big hair, Nehru jackets, acid-washed jeans or an ill-advised tattoo, let us know what about your style as a teenager you would change today.
Extra Credit: Are you kidding? Pictures, baby!”
Dear John,
First, as to pictures – none exist, save the graduation picture I posted here at your behest many moons ago. So, the Nehru Jacket, the gaucho boots with the 3 inch heels, the bell bottoms, the tie-dyed shirts and pants, the painters pants with the ragged bottoms – all gone. And, until just a few moments ago, thankfully forgotten. Gone is the powder blue US Post Office blazer obtained from Goodwill. Gone are the shocking pink socks, the ties that were almost six inches across in their absurd modishness, the polka dots and garish stripes, the silk sash used as a belt – all gone.
Thank goodness...
