Uck. I've been trapped in dissertation essay hell for days now and forum posting is hard. Non stop essay writing has depleted my understanding of the english language. I've begun to feel as though half of the words I'm typing I've made up. Is up even a word? I don't even know anymore. I want to finish this essay, already! 2000 words left to go and lots and lots of proof reading......Why am I typing this in this thread? Go to sleep Bee.

I agree with you about appreciating 'crazy Lindsey'. During GI, I felt he was doing a lot of things that made him stand out. He had a different style musically and fashion-wise than any other musician around. I often wonder how it all would have turned out if he'd stuck with that 'image'.

Hope your essay turns out how you want it to!

Pics that seem to not look like Lindsey.....I have to say that if I had not known that's who I was looking at, I might have said 'Well it looks sort of like Lindsey Buckingham, but.....!!

To me, with his bright smile and neat appearance, he seems so bright that this doesn't say DRUGS to me. If anything, it just says he was hitting the Maybelline mascara bottle too hard, but that's the only thing I find unusual about this.

Yeah I think if the eyes weren't so dark it would look like him - He was quite thin then, sometimes the make-up made him look even more so. That crinkly smile so the same.

There's another shot from this shoot where he's, like, drained and sitting. He looks really sick there.

Here he looks more bright, I agree, but in the other shot he doesn't look healthy.

Oh, are you being your normal cute self -- or is that REALLY from Jerry Scheff's wedding? Because everyone is wondering where it came from...

Hmmm. Let's sleuth. So, Scheff was married in 1976 the last time. That doesn't look like SnL in 1976 does it? Too young. Based on his two sets of kids, let's say Jerry was married in 1961 the first time. When was he married the SECOND time? Inquiring minds want to know. Since his one son was born in 1973, I would just guess Jerry was married in 1972 the second time.

And the chicken returned fully hatched for Peacekeeper. I remember him on a radio show and the interviewer asked him about that squawking sound and wondered if they used birds and he basically said, 'That was me.'
