A Younger Me
My mom must be cleaning out her attic. She just sent me a pile of "old stuff" including a bunch of photos, my bar mitzvah speech, and some more stamps from my never ending stamp collection.
Me at age 8.75. Note the excellent glasses (probably the same size as the ones I wear today) and my lack of tie.
Age 12. I was an SVAA basketball star. Man – that basketball is bigger than my head. I was wearing contact lens (which I’ve since abandoned) by this point in time in my effort to look more sexy. Pretty hard for a 12 year old.


That's the kid I remember…. and if I remember correctly, we had an AWESOME team back then….!!!!!
Wow, someone else with the same hair style transitions. We "heart" the '70s
What a cute kid you were – Loved the part about the Bar Mitzvah speech – being a Jewish Mother, I can relate. Of course, I have both my kids BM speeches saved up in our attic already.
I think a basketball is supposed to be bigger than a head.
I don't know what's better, those glasses or that groovy shirt. I'm telling you, if you can have those handwoven and sold on Etsy, you could reboot the economy in one Feld swoop!
I went to Spring Creek also! Then Westwood Jr. High and then J.J. Pearce High School. I graduated in 1983.
Maybe
you were a cute kid!
Wow, your mom saved your Bar Mitzvah speech? And you aren't going to share your nascent wisdom? Have to say, I love the BIG collar lapels…its a look
Those were the days…..
Yeah. I eventually outgrew the collars.
Brad you were living in Richarson, TX then? I went to Spring Creek Elementary, and lived on Woodstone Ln. I graduated from high school in class of 1985. I have a picture with the same uniform, I'll have my Dad dig it up, I would have been one of the bad basketball players.
You aren't sharing the bar mitzvah speech? Let us peek into the that young brain of yours….
A second motion for outing the speech!
You lived in Richardson as a child??? I went to Spring Creek Elementary School. I graduated from High School in 1985. That picture brought back memories. I was terrible.
no tie, but i do see a collar on that shirt Brad
