My first computer, an Apple II+, was given to me in 1982 as a hand-me-down from my dad’s office.  Eventually the color card started failing, and went into terminal convulsions, barfing up an endlessly rotating kaleidoscope of little colored boxes.  The exact date of departure has been lost in the mists of time, but I’m glad to say I had the presence of mind to use my camera before getting out the shotgun.

Punking out in my first apartment in Austin, circa 1983. Photo probably by Bill Neubauer.

At Eeyore’s Birthday Party in Pease Park, Austin, Texas, probably in April 1980

My Austin High School ID card; I was 15.

Freshman year of high school, at my friend John’s house in Guadalajara, Mexico sometime in January 1979.

Photo taken around 1977 at the San Antonio Little Theater. I pitched in a couple of times as a backstage grunt.

Somewhere between San Antonio and Guadalajara, sometime in the Seventies

From the 1975 American School of Guadalajara yearbook. The exact date of the photo is unknown.

I think this is in the Braniff Club at the San Antonio airport.
