THROWBACK THURSDAY

From sometime in the middle 1960's.  Bismarck, North Dakota. 
Covering live a state Republican convention while suffering under the effects of The Mother of All Hangovers.


A bit later, rising to the occasion.

  3. You were pretty stylish back in the day. I must have been around twelve when these pictures were taken.

  4. Buddha taught one thing: how to end suffering. So when a hangover mysteriously hits or in the dentist chair; I repeat "anincha, anincha" Pali for "everything is temporary".
    I suspect covering Republicans is what caused your headache.

    1. I suspect it was drinking excessively the night before. And ain't no anincha that would have cured that hangover.
