Call Me A Dork...
Call me a dork, but I have been going crazy looking for my Monkees photo album for the past week. I have pictures in it that I can not replace. Memories of happy times. Oh the stories I have! And in some cases, a picture to back it up. But not without that photo album! I was going crazy. I felt stupid, but I actually prayed that I would find the darned thing. It took a couple more days of searching, but I finally it, plus another with even more photos in it! Wow. I was so happy. I found treasures I had even forgotten about! Treasures like this one...
That's right baby, he signed that one to me. Me! Yours truly. I felt like Marcia Brady. No he didn't take me to my prom. I did run a fan club for all four of them for a few years from about 1988. I ran it with a friend for about 2 years, and then on my own for another year or so. It was then that I received this photo from Mr. Jones. What a sweet treasure to find now! I have many others. Plus many happy memories. Call me a dork if you must. But this was awesome stuff to me.

I don't think you're a dork! Also, when things are really important to us, it's not dumb to pray about them!
I LOVED him...how cool that he signed a photo for you!
His death is definitely a loss for pop culture, and those of us who crushed on him in our youth!
Even thought he was an "old dude" by the time I watched the Monkees, I still thought he was a babe!
LOL. Oh but you're such a cute dork! JK We all have our favorite things don't we?
