Big Red: His life, his times, his story

This is the long-awaited picutre gallery, with pictures of myself over time. However, due to the complete embarassment of really old pictures, my gallery will only date back to Christmas 1998, not too long before puberty started to find its way to me. If you want REALLY old pictures, they can be done by personal request. Then again, most of my readers have probably never seen me as far back as 1998, anyway. Even THOSE pictures lick left testicles, but I'll post them anyway. I'll provide a time era (or in some cases, an exact date) for every picture right below the image. There will more than likely also be a usually humorous caption to go with it. And with that, let's get it started! (UPDATE, 7/20/05: MORE COMING!)
Christmas 1998. This is me on my new bike, which I actually used for a good year or two. The tires were beat to shit in an attempt to use it again in early 2002.
My first day of middle school, August 12, 1999. This would effectively begin the worst three years of my life. (And no, I'm not stoned in this picture. I never have been.)
Myself (and my family) at the crowded-ass beach in San Diego, July 1, 2001. I'm on the far left in this picture. The water in the background is the Pacific Ocean; this picture was taken the day after arriving in California. This trip has some hilarious traveling stories behind it, and so you might want to ask me about that.
An overview from the pool deck at the large house (possibly a mansion) of a relative of mine in California. And they aren't the only relatives with money and kickass houses, either. Taken shortly after my arrival in San Deigo.
A second overview (this time from the pool deck of another house), this time looking over what appears to be a community. And yes, the people pictured here are relatives of mine. One of them is the man who inherited $6 million about 10 years ago. Taken July 4, 2001.
A look at the pool party (which many of the relatives from one side of my family, and even one from the other side who was there by sheer coincidence, attended), July 4, 2001.
One of my cousins (Lisa), her daughter, and her boyfriend at the time, Dave. Despite him being long-gone, Dave will always be remembered by me as the guy who introduced me to the Crazy Taxi video game. He also had a kickass car, and I believe the house was his. (Note: She's now married, but unfortunately, it isn't to Dave.) Taken July 4, 2001.
A picture that includes many of the people that were there at some point during my week-long vacation in San Diego. I'm in the back row with my San Diego Padres baseball hat (promoting local things) being blocked out by shade. Taken my last day there, July 7, 2001.
Another relative picture, this time of the (much) younger sister of Lisa, the previously mentioned cousin of mine. Her name is Courtney, she's been a model in the U.S. and in Europe, she's appeared in Seventeen Magazine, and is a co-founder of the San Diego Women Film Foundation. She's pictured here with Lisa's daughter. And no, I don't have her number, so don't ask me for it. In fact, I had never met her until July 17, 2004 (I didn't see her in San Diego in 2001). There was another family reunion, this time in Mississippi (you can see a lot more from that reunion as you go further down this page), and she was there with her boyfriend. It looks like she's done a lot already, and hopefully she has a lot more greatness ahead. UPDATE (3/11/05): I, but maybe not those who aren't related to me, am happy to announce that Courtney and Clint are now engaged to be married! Hopefully this goes down well, much unlike other past cases.
This is a picture of me that was taken shortly after I started being the attention freak that spanned throughout most of 2002. I came out looking like Freedom Rock with the way I posed. (It's my site and I'll slam who I want to.) Taken February 2002.
This is a picture from the 8th Grade Field Trip that I was a part of on May 17, 2002. This was also the day after my long-distance girlfriend broke up with me. This was quite possibly one of the absolute strangest times of my entire life.
This is a group of people who actually answered my request to have a picture taken with them during that same trip on May 17, 2002. I'm the one in the back pointing to them. This was back when I would do that in pictures.
This is me later on May 17, 2002, getting ready for the 8th Grade Dance that would just about signal the end of middle school. Why I posed like this, I'll never know. It must have been my back in those times.
This is a picture of the incredibly long conga line from the dance that night. I also have two other pictures of this line, but I selected this one out of the three. I was never in the conga line, by the way.
This is me during the dance, pictured with...someone else. Anyway, this person is long gone from my life, and I posted it here to get another clear shot of myself. (The other person was never much of anything to me, as the person who's now known as Freedom Rock had a little more to do with her. I had this picture taken just because I could.)
Me on April 18, 2003 at IPW Rage in the Cage 5, which used to be at the top of the page.
Me in Daytona Beach, Florida on May 9, 2003, which also used to be at the top of the page.
This is a shot taken right in front of my grandfather's house near Alabama in the area of the very small town of Gaskin, Florida. This shot is a look down Penn Williams Road, which really needs to be paved. Taken 7/20/04.
This picture is one of the creek that runs under the Penn Williams Road bridge. People used to be able to swim in this creek, including me at a young age. Also taken 7/20/04.
Me at my family reunion in Laurel, Mississippi on July 18, 2004.
This is a shot of some of the many pictures that were along the garage walls at the family reunion. This is the wall right by the back entrance to the house, and I saw this many times due to going in and out so much. The picture on the right is a picture of Courtney when she was modeling (as you can tell by looking at the name), and near the bottom left is four more, smaller shots of her modeling, with the bottom left one looking like Tina Turner. You can't make this stuff up. Other pictures include my 6'9" tall Uncle Slim on a motorcycle, a large group picture from July 4, 1962, a wedding photo (Lisa and her new husband, Eric), and a sign that was completely ignored by all. I'm not quite sure what the other pictures are, but many of them are old, as you can tell by looking at it. Click here to see this picture in a larger size.
This is a picture from July 18, 2004 (Sunday), where people are starting to leave the area after soaking their feet in a LITTLE FUCKING POOL. Shown here are Courtney, my Uncle Slim, Bill (one of the crazy dudes in the left side of the picture), and a few others whose relations to me are unknown.

This is a picture of "my generation." I put this in quotes because I happen to be years older than almost everyone else in this picture. The other people are some cousins of mine, and I look like hell in this picture because...FUCKING CHRIST, it was bright. The sunlight was at a very high level at that time, and I had been standing there for quite some time waiting for everyone to get their own picture on their own camera. I must say that I was happy as hell when this one ended. The girl in the black shirt on the far right is the only person in this picture (besides Freedom Rock, but let's just skip that) that's anywhere close to my age.

This is a shot of my Aunt Ann's family, with my Aunt Ann (I'll take "No Shit Sherlock" for $2,000, Alex), her husband Paul, his parents Bill and Jenny, their daughter (my cousin) Courtney, her boyfriend Clint, and Aunt Ann's older daughter (also my cousin) Lisa's daughter Analise (sp?). I would have a shot of my family, but what the hell is the point? I have pictures of both myself and my family on this page already, so why take more space? Of course, this is also because I see these people every day of my life. Front (left to right): Aunt Ann, Analise, Jenny. Back (left to right): Clint, Courtney, Paul, Bill. Click here to see this picture in a larger size.
I know what you're thinking. This is a SHITLOAD of people. There are over 100 people in this shot, as it is a full shot of the family reunion (well, almost everyone anyway). I'm in the very back, making it hard to see me unless you view the picture in a larger size. Here's an idea. Click here to see this picture in a larger size.
This is the first picture of myself in quite some time, taken January 22, 2005, exactly a month after first getting my head shaved. This was at Brandon All-Stars prior to NWA Florida Winter Warzone, which was a great show, by the way.
This is the first of several pictures that featured me during my 2005 trip to San Diego. This was already over a week into the trip and I was finally involving myself in pictures. This is one with my Uncle Chris and Aunt Tanya, who I hadn't seen in nine years until this day. Taken Sunday, July 17, 2005.
This is a picture that was taken at my Aunt Ann's house during my last night on the trip, following my requests for pictures to be taken that night due to a lack of them before then. From left to right: Clint, Courtney, me, and Brenton. Taken July 18, 2005.
This picture was taken a minute or two after the one directly above it. This one is my 12 year-old cousin Analise (who I did not want to be around at that time), Courtney, Brenton, and myself.
Since I, too, need camera time once in a blue hell, I have the obligatory picture of myself, also taken minutes after the previous two.
This is one last solo picture of me before heading to the airport on July 19, 2005. It was early and I was obviously tired judging by the picture. And this is not in the same house, as you may notice (it was Courtney's narrow house). I would never expect this picture to be the one that goes to the top of my Website.
