The first photo in my 1996 album is *this* one ... from what was likely a new year's eve celebration twenty years ago.
That's a smiling happy DJ trying to clean up that champagne overflow ... and a laughing Kyle K looking on ... and it looks like Becca F over by the refrigerator interested in the outcome of the events.
The place is the townhouse in Lebanon that DJ and I shared in 1996 (he had moved in the previous fall after original roommate Jarrod left the summer before to co-habitate with his girlfriend), and this get together was a sign of things to come, as that place turned out to be our (first) version of a fraternity house for as long as it lasted (stories for another time .. including how there was also a second version of that party house).
By the way ... as you may know from my previous writings, DJ is no longer with us ... so this picture of him smiling and happy is precisely how I like to remember him, which is exactly what I'm doing on this new year's day ... fondly recalling *that* new year's day two decades ago.
