Dork Tuesday

So it's Dork Tuesday; let's all take a moment and thank Osbasso for the pleasure. I've decided I'll only do this once, so instead of one photo I've posted five. How things went from half-nekkid to dork I'll never know, but I did have some fun going though old photos and selecting the "worst" of the bunch. Looking at these it's a wonder I ever got laid in high school... oh wait, I never got laid in high school, never mind.
 
This is me, 1981 in Kindergarten. Note the vest, specs, and collar buttoned all the way up.

 
Here is the whole Kindergarten class, I'm bottom row, second from the left. I don't remember his name, the kid top third from the right, but I do remember he ate glue and crayons.

 
Here is the high school yearbook photo, senior year: 1994. Even with the air brush it wasn't possible to clear my face up.

 
This was taken while I was in basic training in the US Air Force 1994. I served from 1994 - 1999. Those specs were so hot at the clubs, let me tell ya.

 
Here is the whole basic flight, I'm bottom center; I was the chief for our flight and this marked the death of my shyness - I got over that real quick as chief.

Aw mike... your KG pic was cute. However, I would like to officially remove my nomination for the towel-free HNT post. Anyone who couldn't get laid in high school... ok just fuckin with ya - of course we want to see the towel-free picture. Just promise the world you will never shave your head again.

Excellent!
Cheers,

So were you actually born in the 40s or did your parents just have a cruel eyewear thing going on? A couple of photos you could transform to black and white and submit for a WWII history book. :)
