A number of people have written asking if I have anything to say about the now-famous 1970's party pics of our President-Elect, namely:

obama spleef

The one word answer is "no." The thousand-word explanation is:  < -- SNIP -- >

Of everything I have EVER seen or heard about Obama, that photo is the one thing I could care less about. I know that I questioned his admitting cocaine use would go against a security clearance, but personally, meh.

So autumnraine here, guilty as charged.

I mean come on! I DID point out the other day I liked Metallica. haha

Oh wait, you want a PHOTO? I’ll have to dig out that one of me in a snakeskin miniskirt heading off to see AC/DC in Atlanta, late 80’s.

I was never able to really grow my hair long. It tended to curl up, ala Phineas of the “Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers.”

And if you know who the Freak Brothers are, then that should tell you all you need to know about how I spent the seventies...

I’ve got some (very) ‘longhair’ (with beard) pics of my own, but was always too much of a control freak to touch even weed. I think the worst material thing done in that vein was the signing of a statement to ‘save a tree’ while at some city-council event. If it is any consolation, I was the greenie in the room arguing in favor of nuclear power...

Anyway. Got no beefs with people for their prior (or current) drug habits (whether Obama, Clinton, Bush, or whomever) - but am unforgiving regarding any and all ‘unfortunate’ actions undertaken while ‘under the influence’. Narcotics are neither absolving nor mitigating in the realm of action. If anything, they provide something resembling premeditation.

I never cut mine. If anything, my hair is longer now than it was back then. :^)

Dude, I didn’t even own a camera back then. I don’t even think I could have aimed it properly if I did...

My husbands hair is longer than mine and has always been that way. Beard too.
We’d go broke trying to keep him clean shaven! Even shaving twice a day still leaves him with a 5 o’clock shadow. I think he was the only kid in 7th grade with a moustache. Very good hair gene.

Phineas, Freewheelin' Franklin, and Fat Freddy. I wonder where they are now? Of course, you know where I was then.... ;-)

I’ve reached that magical age where I barely remember yesterday, let alone thirty years ago. Of course, since the seventies were the disco decade, I may have purposely tried to blot it out.....
