On my diary's one-year anniversary -- October 17, 2003 -- I put up a new template that shows a picture of me at some point in my life. From time to time, I change the pictures, and since I also refer to the pictures in the text when I change them, those older entries don't exactly ... how shall I put it ... make sense. So here are the older pictures, with the captions that usually only show on the template when you mouseover the picture.

That is, as best as I can reconstruct as of today, January 3, 2004. From now on, I'll add the pictures here when I change them on the template.
