Learning to Dance the SCIENCE Way

[Doktor Howl]

This whole thread is making me giggle madly, which I kind of assume is not the desired effect.

If that involves a bit of wheezing and that kind of laugh that keeps rising and rising, then you're doing just fine.

People take Santorum seriously.  That alone makes me want to shake it like St. Vitus.  In fact the whole line up makes me think how preferable McCain would be.  At least they all put away the "barn coats"

Anecdotal, I learned dance merengue by one of the more effective methods.  A crazed Dominican army vet grabbed me and announced I was learning at one party.  The subtle tap of a stilleto on my inner thigh and the whispered "relax white boy" hinted that I wasn't begging out of this for lack of rhythm.  Having my priorities made obvious, I got the hang of things pretty quick.

Like singing, there no such thing as lack of ability, just lack of basics and enthusiasm.

Depends how hard you do it.

I have a knot.

[Doktor Howl]

I have a knot.

Then you're dancin'.

Yeap...*sniff*...I don't know 'bout you folk but "Chip Coffey's Psychic Kids" show where the adults validate and then exploit a bunch of children's histrionic and dysfunctional stress-management strategies on TV is enough to make me do the Rhumba Epilepticus.

Nothing inspires ANYTHING like a knife against your junk.

Well, that's bad, but not as bad as, say, making them work 30 hour shifts making Iphones.  Think on that for a few minutes, and you'll be able to Calypso!

Made with real Orphan Bits^TM! 

NOW how much would you pay?

So, you pay $400-$700 of your stored labor, in exchange for $10 worth of electronics made with about $0.10 worth of stored child labor.

On the plus side, though, you can get a Rebecca Black soundboard app, which makes up for the whole "evil exploitation of children" thing.
