Handsome lad, handsome man - with a consistent fashion statement.

Styling!

Grace, such flattery. What I found striking after juxtaposing the two pictures was the fact that the position of the hands had changed so little in 72 years. Is that weird?

Chuck, I do get my bibs on from time to time! Yet I usually call them "overalls." Some folk hereabouts say "overhalls," but I haven't adopted that affectation. To me "overhaul" is what we used to do to the old V-8.

I noticed the similar pose--I guess we don't change much over the years, do we? You gotta wear those in, Vanilla!

Lin, maybe has something to do with genetics or aping the behavior of the parent? Yeah, I like the bibs, but they don't get much use. You've seen the picture and when I tell you they are twenty years old, well. . .
