REO all the way baby!!!! I was wondering who would notice the "horseshoe pit". This was our senior year...I'm thinking May 1986. We are so conservative for this day and age. Have you seen some of the prom dresses as of late!? I feel like such an old lady.
Speaking of SAT's.....LongE- do you remember picking me up and I dropped all my pencils, ID, etc, etc all over the street? Fortunately Mrs. Mondschein was one of the teachers proctoring so she knew I was who I said I was.
yes I remember picking you up for the SAT's. In fact, I have a picture of you coming out of your house that morning, which came in handy a few weeks back when we were trying to figure out your house number on Poplar Street.
Mr. Long. You had pictures of way too many things back in high school. What was up with that? Do you have a picture of Kim taking out the garbage? How about a picture of Judy coming out of the boys locker room? Maybe a picture of Mare throwing away her half-eaten apple crisp (which was never really crisp, more like apple sog)?
just us dorks being overly clever. Pb = prom bait, and Pb = symbol for lead. therefore MisLEAD by Kool and the Gang sort of became our tongue-in-cheek Prom Theme. the lyrics were vaguely applicable.
Where do you guys get this great memory from? Aren't you all old, like me? I know LongE has pictures to explain everything that happened in his life.....but the level of detail in 'dorkdom' is too much! Prom-bait? I would never have remembered that. What a riot. Way to go!
So Matt....are you saying my dress was 'hip' for that time? Or was that a cut? (that is "everybody cut, everybody cut, everybody cut footloose!) MP, MP, MP??? Not MKP, but whom then?
Nice hair, Kim. Also, I like the shoe pit on the right. Makes me Jones for some "shoes".
ReplyDeletei'm digging the Brian Stetzer look and the South Catty burbs are lovely in the spring, the perfect backdrop.
ReplyDeletewhere are the dates?
Were Kim & Marry a couple even back then???....a step up from the PJ's ladies!!
ReplyDeleteLonge - I assumed it was only a matter of time until a prom picture presented itself. You're forcing me to break out the album.
ReplyDeleteJeff - Marry? what the heck?
Mare- Were you cranking Hall and Oates in the background? or REO !!!
ReplyDeleteREO all the way baby!!!!

I didn't take that picture on Prom day. It was the day we took the SAT's. Don't you remember getting all dressed up for the test?
ReplyDeleteMare,
ReplyDeleteSorry - I slipped an extra R in there...more reason to stick to "MARE" moving forward!!
Jeff

ReplyDeletewhat DON'T you have a picture of?

ReplyDeleteMaybe a picture of Mare throwing away her half-eaten apple crisp (which was never really crisp, more like apple sog)?
and despite hanging around him all the time i have no recollection of a camera.
ReplyDeleteKim taking out her garbage...yes. Judy coming out of the boys locker room...no. Judy in the girls locker room.......hmmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteMare would never have thrown away any food- Jude would have snagged it first.
ReplyDeleteKim you are so right on our prom dress choices. You wouldn't catch a girl today wearing that Southern Belle style.
ReplyDeleteAnyone remember the prom theme from our senior year?
Time in a Bottle.......blech....
ReplyDeleteKim - who was your date?
ReplyDeleteanyone remember why Mislead = PB?
Matt - Kim's date was Bruce.
ReplyDeleteMislead? sounds familiar....hint?
Mislead, Huh? Did I miss something?
ReplyDeletejust us dorks being overly clever. Pb = prom bait, and Pb = symbol for lead. therefore MisLEAD by Kool and the Gang sort of became our tongue-in-cheek Prom Theme. the lyrics were vaguely applicable.
ReplyDeleteThat was just part of the official "dork" code....
ReplyDeletepb - ingenious - better than Time in the Bottle. Is there more given Longe's comments?
ReplyDeletetoo much to list without being eternally embarrased.

ReplyDeleteit just hit me, Kim's dress is straight out of Footloose.
ReplyDeleteYes PB was running rampant that year....I believe that MP = PB as well.
ReplyDeleteMullen -you called that one long before I saw it coming!
i was going to bring up the fact that that MP (not MKP) was the benchmark by which all other PB was measured. didn't know you knew that.
ReplyDeleteJP--Somebody owes somebody $5.
ReplyDeleteYou guys have lost me, but glad to hear it wasn't MKP.
ReplyDeleteThey lost me too Mare, and I am the one who started the whole PB thing. That Kool and the Gang really rocked!
ReplyDeleteSo Matt....are you saying my dress was 'hip' for that time? Or was that a cut? (that is "everybody cut, everybody cut, everybody cut footloose!)
ReplyDeleteMP, MP, MP??? Not MKP, but whom then?
MP = Martina Petrowski, Perdick took that lure hook, line and sinker.
ReplyDeletethe footloose comment - it hurts that you need to ask what my intentions were.
ahh MP. Forgot about her.
