NKOTB Reunion?

I thought it would be fun to post this picture. Enjoy! -Gloria

I considered posting something on this, but it would mean openly admitting to liking NKOTB. I was a part of the crowd that liked NKOTB songs, but was not obsessed over the guys. (Jordan Knight was so cute!) Thanks for confessing for me, J. -Elisa

Okay, I will openly admit it. When I was in my pre-teen and early teen years I was obsessed with NKOTB. While cleaning out my parents attic last summer I found boxes of stuff I had accumulated during that phase. Magazines, VHS tapes of TV performances, CD's, buttons, dolls, commic books, trading cards, and other useless merchandise. Crap, crap, and more crap. Parting with most of the stuff was easy, though I did contemplate how much it would fetch on Ebay. However, the 12 yo in me got a little giddy when I saw this article today on MSN today about my boy band's reunion.

The teaser info was fun to watch. Afterward, I emailed my high school buddies that were fellow blockheads. It could be interesting to see what these boys, now men, are up to and if the new material is any good. My expectations are low, but it will be interesting to follow and relive a little of my youth.
