Just a share. 1985. I wasn't sure whether to put this here or in the Prince section, but it's just a share. I'm a virtual unknown here, but this is pretty significant to me. In the mid 80's, I was in a girls' home. Anyway, tragedy, tragedy, long story short, there is virtually nothing in existence to prove I ever existed for the first 18 years of my life. I have no family ties, no ties to old friends, nothing but the life I have now. I recently came across a room mate on Myspace from the group home and she shared these photos with me. I'd never seen them before. It's 1985 and I was 17 years old. Here I am on a Prince forum and some things never change.
Thanks for strolling down memory lane with me even if it may be a little mock worthy. I laughed, too.  Murica: at least it's not Sudan. | |

mock worthy, no. But I do have tears in my eyes. Those are sweet pictures and I'm glad you have them.
When else but in the 80s would a kid have an autographed picture of Eddie Murphy on her dresser? | |

that's great! thanks for sharing... not mock worthy at all I am sure there are more of us than care to admit that we had those posters up on our walls too, if I ever get around to it I'll scan the pictures of what my bedroom looked like in 85
I was older than you and lived alone, my whole room belonged to P
