Scary picture from the past

[dolmangar]

Found this picture and thought that I would share it. This was taken at Va Tech around '93 or so. See how many people you can identify :)

Nope, it's actually a bitmap file, instead of a .gif, or .jpg so pretty much what you see is what you get. i don't even remember who took the picture, or when they scanned it in. Might even be older (cira 1992) since my hair is still isn't that long.

it's a little, old, grainy photo.
i can scan it higher-res if you want, although if you're just looking for mike w/his sexy long hair, i have others you might want to choose between.

i can also send you the bitmap i cut-and-pasted everyone who wasn't there but should have been into, or the one where i drew horns and tails and other embellishments on the crew in paintbrush, if you like. :)

(as for who took it, see below)

Oh, and btw, I'm sexy even without the long hair. But I had to compensate by getting motorcycles, cars and money ;)

Maybe it wasn't such a good trade off. Now I have to pay insurance on all that crap... Just another shmuck sucked into the American dream :)

[tyratae]

you got this copy from me, didn't you?

identify is the easy part:
cindrax, gigi lieberman, teky4lf, whale_girl, you in all your long-haired glory, the then-named cael darian, yours truly, tony harrison, and ladyinthetower. i can do you one better and tell you who's holding the camera: reedrover. oh, and ranagar and jeymin showed up a little too late to make it into this shot...

:)

I did get it from you, didn't know if you just had the bitmap, or if you actually had the original copy. I remember the cut/paste job you did to add everyone else.

Guilty as ownership.

I still have the negatives, not just the photo. I have the whole set of everyone posing in various forms on the wall from that day. (Also of various people posing on the Rock, too.)

okay 6 of 9 is not so bad

besides i didn't know the other three.....

When was this taken out of curiosity? must have been fall of 92? or maybe spring semester in 93?

I've seen this several times over the years, but always forget that that is fuzzy on the end.....

'92 or '93 probably. I'm guessing by the length of my hair, but I'm not like a tree where you can cut me open and count my rings.

BTW, this is pretty cool, I don't think that I've had a post before with this many responses. Looks like I should dig into the archives and post a few more pics :)

[whale_girl]

I am fairly sure it was fall of 93. I remember Gigi and I driving down together, probably with Tony too.

Thanks for posting the picture.

[whale_girl]

Actually I am wrong. It had to be spring of 93. Gigi left TJ a year early, so it had to be one of the trips with teky4elf.

[teky4lf]

This was taken during a long weekend for TJ (or spring break) during the 1992-1993 school year. I'm quite certain I'm guilty of driving Gigi, Tony, whale_girl, and myself down. I'm thinking there was someone else in the car. whale_girl, thoughts?
