This is the one with a photo of me.
Yesterday when I was digging through old photos looking for a father/son photo to post, I came across the picture above.
It’s me, and it looks like there is a cigarette in my mouth. “Hey mom, look at this,” I said as I handed her the photo.
“Oh, that’s a cute one,” she said.
“There’s a cigarette in my mouth,” I said.
“Yeah, you were a wacky kid.”
Wacky? Wacky as in the type of kid that like to chain smoke? Or Wacky as in the type of kid that picked random cigarettes off the ground and put them in my mouth?
And who thought, “Hey, little Michael has a cigarette in his mouth! Let’s snap a picture of that!”
@cheapblueguitar you leaving?? Or just singing?
you don’t see pictures like that anymore…cigarette’s and children are a taboo in today’s society.
I thought it was a lollipop til you said otherwise. It does, however, remind me of my favorite quote from my friend Heidi… “Mmmmm…. bubblegum and cigarettes, tastes like fifth grade.”
My parents have a picture of me as a toddler asleep on the couch, beer bottle in hand. Kids do the darnedest things.
