Well, I was thinking about saying something until I remembered the toga parties and such back in college in the 60's and 70's.

Not that I would admit going to any....

Oh, I don't know......a pink towel never goes out of style!

Maybe we were hoping for something that was more typical of the era, like, say, groovy wallpaper.........

Guys.. how did you ENDURE the seventies?

Flannel shirts and jeans... O0

And a lot of drugs...

Disco STILL sucks!

Remember flocked wallpaper .When I moved into this house the one bathroom had flocked wallpaper .It took hours and hours of work to strip it .

Flocked wallpaper is evil.

Back in the '70s I rented a room in a house with a landing (once you entered the house you had to walk up or down stairs); there were pink shag carpets; the wall along the stairs to the main floor was glass tiles with a mural of running horses.

About 1976 or 77. Stoner, eh? I'm the one in front with the zit on my chin.

Flannel shirt! Oooh, baby...

Good Luck Trolls : Home

Flannel shirt! Oooh, baby...

Probably no bra either. Some of us were not Sears and JC Penney, but war surplus and Goodwill.

Now I see where JG got his glasses...

How did we wear those things? And weren't the lenses glass? Or were there plastic lenses by the mid-70s?

Okay LG4N---where is your other leg? And why are you holding the alarm clock?
I was waiting for some other comments? And what was the name of the poodle on your head? Nice pink towel for sure. And, the obvious question---who goes to a party in a towel?

Martha, those glasses were, well, I'm speechless.

I have a picture of me with those glasses and a Dorothy Hamill hair cut and I'm wearing a jump suit .I'd post it but my scanner is on the fritz.I had to take a picture of the other photo and then load it .That's why it is so grainy .

1977, when I still had hair on my head and none on my face. The second picture demonstrates both my athletic skills and my ability to wear hot pink shorts.

Here's a pic of me in 1978. I was at a wedding and let's just say I had consumed one or two beers... Arghhhh...I can't believe I liked those glasses.

 

[Onward]

I can't believe I liked those glasses.

I think those glasses are back in now?

 

[bbbamI]

I think those glasses are back in now?

If they are, I'll pass this time. I don't think I have enough face for them...
