But it would have specifically to be the Batusi to maintain the purity of reference to the futile romance in the movie directed by the artist whose extraordinary eye for cinematic dance antecedents I was admiring. :wink:

And whose words I was quoting without attribution. And...oh, okay. Who I was ripping off. But whatever. Admiring, ripping off. Six of one, demi-douzaine de l'autre, I say.

"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.

I'm dancing to the spirit of progress myself. Because you may not be able to change the world just by changing your attitude, obviously. But like the signs in the backs of taxis suggesting that you take your receipt used to say: Can't hurt, might help.

I'm doing The Horse, probably because I have Horse Fever.

For heaven's sake, be careful with that. I know it seems like it's all just fun and games when you're first starting out. But that's only because you're still mostly seeing it from the outside looking in. It always looks just as pretty as pretty can until you're right in the middle of it -- and after that, it's always just the same fucking story it always does. First, you'll be like: "Sure, c2w, I do a few casual line dances on weekends, what of it?" Then you'll be all: "Okay, so maybe it's getting a little more serious, now quit hassling me. It's not like anyone's really getting hurt." Then boom, just like that, you're hooked, and all of a sudden it's your wife and it's your life.

I mean, I'm sorry to be such a drag about it and everything, but you happen to be kind of important to me. Plus, you don't really want to end up spending all your time selling it cheap for some guy you never even get to see just to keep The Horse off your back, do you? Well, all right, then. Fine. I apologize for the implication, and beyond that, I see no reason to dwell on it any further. I'm just glad to hear that you still have some sense left. Because, seriously, honey, it's so few steps from The Horse to the Pony, why, I could almost count them on the the fingers of one hand. Though I might be a little bit off on the numbers. All I know for sure is that it's not safe to spend too much time dancing on the edge.

Sometimes I feel like doing a salmon dance, though I admit it is important to be in the proper position.

Ye dancin'?

http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=N-uyWAe0NhQ

Madness say they're, like, half-ska. Who'll half-dance the half-ska wi' me?

The Nutty Dance is what white folk do when they hear Carribean-inspired music. We can't do much else, to be honest.

So who'll dance wi' me? Don't all rush at once.

Hm. There are a couple of pillows in the dancery where I got it crunk this evening, too, chance being a fine thing. But what I'm celebrating is no more drama in our lives. It's a big earth after all, and we don't need no hateration, I feel.

Come on, everybody, get on up.
