My first photo thread --- post 'em if you got 'em!!
Ok, we finally got a scanner and I have been having a blast loading old photos into our Mac. Here are a few from the driver8 family!!

I caught this Carp and this eel while fishing with my grandfather. The Carp almost pulled me in! (I am 6 in this picture)




My sister and I at Joe Indian Lake in upstate NY -- I'm 5 or 6. Gadget is the big brown dog and Pepe is the Poodle.




My Little League team from 1974 in Adak, Alaska; I am the geek with my hand to my face in the front row:




My parents out on the town in Montrose, Scotland in 1964:




My father and friends rockin' hard in Panama around 1967:




No explanation needed!

18. That's a sweet one.
I think most of us felt awkward & goofy in front of a camera at that age. I just wanted to hide. Couldn't control my face.

21. I had never heard of him, but just looked him up
BENICIO DEL TORO

His brooding good looks have reportedly won over actresses Claire Forlani, Alicia Silverstone and, most recently, Scarlett Johansson.



For me, unfortunately, I have only won over Scarlett Johansson. Still working on the other two.


Note: I don't see the resemblance, but I won't turn it down.
