Okay, I am posting this because the guy I went to prom with, John Cottrell, has been here on the boards lately.. Savicki knows him from another board and told him where I was! ;) John's xchange name is "Creeps" so you will know who he is if you ever see him posting! This picture is from 1987.. I am on the far right (I'm sure you knew that!)
And of course John is the handsome guy with his arm around me ;)

John has recent pics of himself and his band on www.ttops.net (http://www.ttops.net)

The other guy in the photo was one of my best friends from high school, Bill.. (Trendkill on the xchange)

So there it is Savicki! The famous prom picture that I was threatening to post!

Yes, i've seen the name "Creeps" on the boards. Nice pic, Tina! :)

Had to post on this one, just had to do it. Slap if ya don't like my comments ! well the pic is very dark so yer hair come as not so blonde ! For the rest ! Well no need to tell me who you are on the pic. You are Tinajo, ya have the cutest face of all ! B'sides this dress makes me guess more than I bargained for on ya ( well, I'm getting all TGND like, whack me real hard ) Da-rool is the first thing that comes into mind ! I can see you're tinajo on the pic and that's the best comment and compliment I can make !

TGND " This is a Tina-mania ! Please refer to TGND for further detail on upcoming tina merchandising " :D ( that was TGND humor, doesn't make much sense, so don't bother trying to figure it out ! )

Certitude : Tinajo was a megababe early on ! And the amazing thing is she also happens to be smart !

Kewl pic, Tinajo!!! It is a little dark, so I can't see your gorgeous face as well!!! Perfect 80s prom fashion on you all!!! Thanks for posting the pic!!! :)

80sTrivia: Official Stalker of DD86 & jen* :D

Nice picture Tinajo. I have one almost like it(except I'm wearing a tuxedo. LOL! :) ).

Thanks guys.. yeah.. I know its dark :(

Frenchy.. my hair wasn't always blonde ;)
In fact.. it was pretty brown there!

It just depended on how much time I spent out in the sun on the beach to how light my hair was... but I have been a blonde pretty much ever since then!

oh, the price I would pay to be at Tina's side in that pic. :)

I love your dress!!!

Very cool pic, Tina!! That dress couldn't be any more 80s!!! :)

Whoa! Love that dress Tina... I compliments your SEXY qualities! :D Wish I could've been your Prom date. ;)

Tina, I would have asked you to my prom in a heartbeat! Woo hoo!!! :D

Taz and Pagan... I SOOOOOO would have gone to the prom with either of you.. (I think..) hmm... better let me see some older pics of you two! ;) Just kidding ya!

Yes.. the dress was very 80s.. as well as the hair.. the hair could have been "bigger", but I thought that the elegant look for prom was better.
We thought we looked like penguins... all of them in white and me in black and white!
Can you believe that I was just getting ready to turn 15 in that picture?
Damn.. that was young! (I was a freshman when I went to prom, with a junior!) How cool was I? he he heh ;) And John was quite a catch, too!

I was pretty excited to find that picture today.. I had to run and get it scanned right away!
(BTW John... it's the copy that you mailed to me a few years back) Make sure Bill sees this! ;)

Well, I took it into the ol PSP and cleaned it up a bit so I can see her face clearly....and I must say once again....WHOO-HOO!! :D

OMG!!!!! Tinajo, that is the ULTIMATE 80s photo. The fans on the wall behind ya'll totally make the pic. I love the dresses, btw. *jen secretly wishes she had gone to prom*

Great picture Tinajo! I love seeing these 80s photos. You look great in it. :)

Uhh Tina? Would you do me the honor of allowing me to escort you to the prom? :cool: I know I'd be the envy of every guy there!! :)

Aieee! John did have hair back then! :eek: Much more than I thought! :p
Tina was your hair naturally darker then, or did you dye it (what is it with blondes :D ?)

Did I reunite 2 high-school friendships... or should I save loves? Anyway, here is the thread that started it all (http://www.80sxchange.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=11&t=000189&p=1)... I think it may've even been the 1st message I posted on 80sxchange! :) If not, definitely one of the first. :cool:

Yeah Savicki.. and that was John's hair at it's shortest! (And he considers that "no hair")

And Steve.. I already explained my hair color, scroll up, dude! LOL ;)

you were born with super style Tinajo, just look at that dress! - what a cool contrast the black is! I would've known it was you on the right, even if the top of the pic was cut off and were told to pic you out. Were you the only girl at the prom wearing 'wicked black'? I think that is so cool, and typically Tina

Tinajo, you were just plain hot back "then" and hot right "now". I would have been at your prom dancing with some other chic while watching you and wishing I was your date! ;)

GMan, most of the time ya spoil my pleasure ( ya never get enough of teasing me ? ) but, it's about Tinajo !!!!!! TINAJO !!!!! ( hysterical ) Don't toy with forces ya don't comprehend , i warn ya !!! The sole idea of ya with tina ( move on side to throw out ).

TGND " yeah, I'm overkill, but I'm not gonna explain myself other than to this one woman ! "

Frenchy! You got me all wrong baby, I tease ya boy because I like ya! You have a great sense of humor that comes out in your own special way! :D

ya...ya.... ya like me ???? :eek: and was going to throw ya overboard the USS 80sxchange ! Well, now we're cool ! Well tina, I was the only one who would never have had a chance to take ya to prom ( hey, there is an ocean between us ! )Yet, I still wish i could have ! Would have done what ya wanted, trying to suit yer needs and fulfill yer every desire ( let's see, a beautiful gal who can also be smart and interesting at the same time, oh yeah, like we can find plenty outta the board ! )If I close my eyes I can picture it ! unfortunately I have to open them at some point. rats !!!!!

TGND " All these men with ya, how lucky they are ! I wanna know more about ya ! much more, ya got me hooked ! "

Tinajo that is a totally 80s picture. The dress couldn't be anymore 80s and everyone's hair (especially the guys) is very 80s :)

Thanks for sharing this memory with us :)

glad you liked the picture, Zel!! I was wondering when you would pop your head in to see it! The 80s rocked! LOL

hehe

Too bad my hair was cut before prom!! Woulda looked even more 80s.

Tina, next time you're in Florida we need to take a recent picture of us and post it... a before & after

:devil:

I missed this one before, Tina. I love the black & white theme! Beautiful picture. You four must've been the classiest-dressed kids at prom that year. Too many of those 80s dresses looked like a fluorescent marshmallow's worst nightmare :D

Great pic, Tinajo! I agree with everyone else: that pic is 80's to the hilt and that's why I love it. :D Great dress and hair. :thumb:

Crikey, flashback...1986...Beauty pic Tinajo!:)

Damn.. you're right, John.. it was April of 88... I kept thinking that it had to be 87 because of when I moved...

And i just keep looking at her in the eyes !

TGND " She makes me feel all kind of....kind off..... - the following words had to be censored not to offend the younger members ! - LOL "

oops I misread the title, thought it said porn pictures:D j/k . Thats a real nice picture Tinajo:)

watch it.. .she was mine first!

:devil:

uh oh.. have I got another stalker among the boards? :nolurker:
:lol:

Hey Frenchy... you better be on the lookout for this guy!

Well, I may not be as hardcore as I used to, but I can't be as often as i wish, still, The will is still there ! And yeah, I'm on the lookout for him ! Now back off would be stalker, it's my turf !

TGND " Silverback stalker "

my life may never be the same again!

WOO WOO
:devil:

just in case, even if ya have the paparazzi, I luv Teena for better reasons than that, so that's still make me worthy as a stalker ! Don't brag, it's not ya who had Teena, it's her who makes ya ! She made me a poor wretched insane stalker !!!!!

TGNd " Say the Teeeeeena ! "

Frenchy... you are a pretty good stalker.. yes you have slacked off a little but I haven't been around much lately either...
But I love your twisted humour! :lol:

Creeps... yeah.. you have a stalker now.. he he heh... I changed the sig again... better be sure to put me in yours!

By the way... we are the best looking 80s couple around! ;)
