What happened to Pluto again? I never understood taking away its planetary status. How rude!

It is not fresh to wear a t-shirt from a tour that happened before you were born.

Also, I don't know who this guy is or what he ever did.

But he's not fresh!

BTW, age is a state of mind.

None of this should make you feel old. It should make you think, "Wow! We've sure done a lot in the last 20 or 30 years!"

Urgh I couldnt stand "Clarissa Explains It All"...hated that show as a kid. disbelief

I do remember "Are you afraid of the dark"...but I see they didn't mention"Ghostwriter"? I used to watch that show faithfully. Even had my own journal book that I would pull out when the show came on to follow along. lol

I was just thinking about floppy discs the other day. I have a slew of them still at my mom's house.

I don't care what no one says, Luke Perry was way hotter than Jason Priestly. nod

And I still have my Nintendo 64 as well as the original Nintendo and play it now and then. nod

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

You should be able to find a good USB flash drive at a reasonable price. Can't really buy anything these days (unless at a pawn shop) that has a floppy disk drive to it. lol I think my mom still has a computer with a floppy disk drive, so before she gets rid of it, I can find out what's on those floppy's before she throws them away. I know at least one or two of them have a slew of Prince pics on them. wink

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.
