A Little Progress

I don’t know how they do it in other states, but here in Oregon our drivers licenses expire every eight years on our birthday. Well, my birthday is on Sunday (you should have started shopping for my gift by now) and I went into my friendly local DMV to get a new picture taken and update the info.

First off, I put my truthful weight on it for the first time, ever. Secondly, the picture. I didn’t think to scan the old picture before I surrendered it, but I think I have something to compare it to.

John This picture was taken in August 2004.

Granted the DMV is not known for its professional portraits and the goal is to look like you would when one of Pendleton’s finest pulls you over for a chat. I don’t know about you, but I see a significant reduction in the number of chins I carry around.

    Wow, the difference is amazing. And, you look younger in the second one. That’s not bad for a DMV pic.
