We Have the Photo of Mr. and Mrs. Travis in Law School
24 Mar 2022
BUCK: We had Bridge Colby on. If you missed it, by the way, Bridge is a super-smart guy. I actually knew him… I knew him back in D.C. when I was working for the CIA. We used to hang out sometimes. So I’ve known Bridge for… Gosh, Clay, it’s crazy to do this math now. Almost 20 years.
CLAY: Yeah. He was great.
BUCK: You know what I mean? You start to do in your head. I have friends now… I went to a friend’s wedding this past fall, and we did the math, and I’ve known him for 34 years at this point, since we were six years old.
CLAY: Yeah. I did the math on this, Buck, because when you start law school, they take your picture in front of the law school.
BUCK: Oh, I want the Clay law school picture, and I want it up on ClayAndBuck.com.
CLAY: Yeah, yeah.
BUCK: I want to see the mullet, Travis.
CLAY: The whole class gets their picture on the law school front steps, and we had our anniversary of that photo being taken, and that was kind of a… It’s been a full generation since we started law school, but everybody… I couldn’t stop thinking, if you subtract the 20 years, I was two years old. Right? So as much time has passed, as 2 to 22, now 22 to 42, and I couldn’t stop thinking in my head. Because when you’re 22, you feel like you’re so grown up and so old, and yet, 22 to 42 seems like it passed in the snap of a finger, compared to 2 to 22, which seemed like it lasted forever.
BUCK: So, can we reach out to Mrs. Travis to go into the family archives here for the photo?
CLAY: Mrs. Travis is also in the photo, right? Because that’s where we met, first-year law school class.
BUCK: So, she clearly has access. So, we have to put it up at ClayAndBuck.com. We gotta find this.
CLAY: These are not as embarrassing as my high school photos. By the time I was 22… You’ve seen my high school photos, right?
BUCK: No. We gottta put some of this stuff up.
CLAY: Oh. Oh. Oh.
BUCK: I have a college graduation photo and I feel like I hadn’t gotten a haircut in 6 months, and things were pretty wild up top. But, yeah. We should do some Clay and Buck photos up at the site, at ClayAndBuck.com. And, anyway, I was talking about Bridge just because if you missed that interview… By the way, puka shell necklace in the law school photo?
CLAY: (pause) I may have had a shell necklace in the photo.
BUCK: (laughing)
CLAY: I definitely had a shell necklace phase.
BUCK: (laughing)
CLAY: I’m not sure if the shell necklace phase was still ongoing.
BUCK: Hey, man, put on a shell necklace, listen to some Dave Matthews, go play a little hacky sack in the quad!
CLAY: People out there who remember, ’95 to about 2003, there were a lot of shell necklaces. A lot of khaki.
BUCK: Yeah.
CLAY: A lot of khaki and shell necklaces.
BUCK: Cargo shorts. Hacky sack. I remember it all, man. Soundgarden. I’m rocking out right now in my head.
