1985

I’ll probably get kicked out of here for posting this video but I can’t help it!

A local radio station in north Alabama, Lite 96.9, is playing songs all day long from the year 1985; the year I graduated high school.

Traveling in to work this morning they played Prince’s Raspberry Beret. Man, I love that song, my apologies up front to all the metal heads. Sorry, I wasn’t in the popular crowd back in high school. Yes, I was a dork.

My high school was small and everyone pretty much got along with everyone else. We didn’t have a real big “in” crowd. We respected each other believe it or not. I was a shy one in high school.

When our school had their first reunion, I showed up with a U.S. Marine in full dress uniform. I used to have an About Me page over at my site and it made mention of me having a tattoo. Yeah, the Marine had something to do with it. Heh. ;-)

At any rate, I do hope you enjoy the video.



I know, Beth, Vinnie, Martin, and Linda will ring my neck for this one. Sorry, but I think I’ll leave the politics and newsworthy stuff to the pros! Maybe one of them will come along and bury this puppy soon!

UPDATE below the break!

Shhhh! Sooper seekrit update from The Blogger On Hiatus™:


(How lame is it that I break my hiatus for a freakin’ Prince video?! Don’t tell on me! OK, back to real-life work…XOXOXOXOXOXOXO!)
