Looks like the burned-in date says " 1 1 95". I vaguely remember having everybody over to my apartment (where this picture was taken) for New Year's that year. I guess it was Vi taking the picture...?

Question: Am I getting ready to chop my own head off with the bokken resting on Johnny's shoulders, or am I doing an ahead-of-its time Karl from Sling Blade impression...? "You oughtn't to rest a bokken on your shoulders like 'at. Mmm-hnh!"
