May Have Posted This Before...

There's a meme wandering around Facebook about posting pictures from when you were younger. This is a picture from 1983 in Champaign IL taken of the Not-Yet-Dr. Phil by the Not-Yet-Mrs. Dr. Phil, contrasting with a picture from the January 2009 ConFusion:

This is the first of my two Nikon F3 cameras, as noted by the red dot on the cover to the flash synch -- the second one had a bright blue dot. The picture was taken with a Nikon Nikkormat FT3, which had a yellow dot. (grin)

Mothers Of Invention
A friend at the GVSU Library found this poster while scanning things for the archives from 1975. I would've been in my senior year of high school in Greensboro NC at the time:


Enjoy!

An amazing talent. And one gawky human being -- watching him conduct an orchestra was like watching Big Bird. (grin) Looks like (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Zappa) this Grand Valley State Colleges concert at the Dome was just before he broke up with the second incarnation of The Mothers -- huh, Frank died just before his 53rd birthday, not quite two years older than I am. Puts some perspective on things...
