The other day, I was talking with friends who were talking about the "good old days" when they looked a bit less frumpy than they might now. Another friend, who prefers to dress very casually offered a view dressed in formal attire. Me, I'm obese, even by the standards of obesity, and haven't been slim in quite some time. So, I dug out the last "slim" picture I have - featuring my wife and I attending a formal occasion in October, 1991. Just the fact that I can remember the date so vividly is a testament to how long it's been since I looked like this.

The picture, unfortunately, was scanned at very high resolution. According to Netscape's GIF-Lube utility, it will take over two minutes to download the picture using a 28K modem connection. So, I'll offer it up as a link for those curious enough to give it a look.
