Reblog if you, too, have been supplied with fire water from within a kangaroo's pouch.  From Muhlenberg's 1950 yearbook.

It's so difficult to empathize with yearbook editors.  Not only did these ham-fists mismanage their content and find themselves inexplicably unable to delete blank pages, but they had the audacity to encourage folks left out of the yearbook to draw themselves and their friends in with crayon.  (The implication is that if you were left out, your loser friends were left out too.)  Offensive.  From Monclair's 1977 yearbook.  For peace of mind, see How to Hoodoo Hack a Yearbook.

From Cleveland Technical's 1985 yearbook.  See How to Hoodoo Hack a Yearbook.

From Duke's 1934 yearbook.
