Me. I am holding a dog. Okay? Get a good look. |
I don't even know where I am in the photo or exactly when it was taken, but I can tell that it's me and I sort of remember it maybe a little.
IT IS BEYOND A DOUBT one of the dumbest pictures of me ever taken ...
But at least it shows everyone that I've been dog loving sun of gun for quite some time. I'd say Seattle in the late 1980s. Freaking Finney Ridge before Grunge Rock. Guns and Roses was a new act then.
I met this chick and she had this dog ... yeah.
Dominique, was the dog's name, we called here "Bo Bo." (Rhymes with doe doe.) She was a wise old sole. I would pick her up and she would go limp. She would and I jwould and it was a little game we played. Then one day she took a picture of me/it/us/whatever.
And I hid it away for a while. Like 37 whiles with a dash of whilst.
I look downright thin and handsome and completely stupid and holding that silly dog. It also makes me remember how forgiving and flattering black and white photography can be.
