Three Decades of Corey

I recently discovered a treasure trove of yearbook photos that look remarkably like me. Take a look, and ask yourself how this came about: Clever Flash application, time machine, or incredibly strong genetics? You decide. (Hint: check out yearbookyourself.com and prepare to lose an hour.)

The 70’s were definitely not a good time for me. As for that 1988 photo… well, it does look pretty accurate, actually. I graduated high school in 1989, and that’s pretty much how I looked back then. My hair was a little longer, and I was definitely not in a sweater-over-collared-shirt combination; but still, quite close.
