One of my best middle school friends sent this photo of a letter of all my favorites from 1988 and it made me laugh so much that I had to post it. Lori, thanks for making me laugh this week.
This is the letter. The handwriting is barely legible and shows evidence that I’ve never been able to write a cursive R, despite having one in each of my names. And it’s hard to believe my adult handwriting has gotten praise enough to address wedding invitations. And I have my own font. I know, 13 year-old me is shocked.
The letter
So, the thing that bugged me (besides listing Richard Marx and Michael Bolton because I absolutely loathe both) is that I couldn’t place the band Times 2. So I looked them up. They were an exact copy of the band Scritti Politti with a little OMD thrown in. If you don’t know Scritti Politti, it’s ok. They were SO 1987.
Good Lawd. That handwriting.
The song, “Strange But True”:
