Me in 1969
After protracted and exhaustive deliberations and subsequent bilateral negotiations, the undersigned was recently tendered access and ownership of an unspecified quantity of personal chattel and effects, which had heretofore remained sequestered for a staggering duration of four-and-one-half decades. Intermingled amongst the aforementioned historical artifacts were archival visual representations originating from an epoch wherein the subject’s subjective state of felicity and general well-being manifested at a zenith of apparent maximum optimization.
Of an even more startling and unanticipated character was the empirical revelation, duly corroborated by photographic evidence, that for a circumscribed and transient temporal interval, the undersigned was possessed of naturally blond follicular pigmentation—or, at the very minimum, a follicular coloration tending toward a light chromatic brown.
The primary evidentiary document aforesaid was discovered to be in a profound state of physical degradation and structural compromise; nevertheless, by virtue of the technical interventions, restorations, and digital remediation, the undersigned succeeded in salvaging said artifact and restoring the same to its primordial condition. It remains a matter of ongoing procedural regret that the aforementioned technology has not yet devised a systemic mechanism capable of effectuating a commensurate retrogressive adjustment upon the biological age of the subject.
