(Fred and) Ginger...Rogers that is

ok, so you get the whole theme thing going on. i promise it won't always be like this but it's just one example of my train of thought getting out of control. it's the whole "joys of life" thing, you know. food and drink, and music and dancing goes right along with it. sometimes a little too much drinking will lead to the dancing, and where there's dancing there's floozies. that's another story completely but you begin to see how my mind works. it's actually a great line from a 1985 movie called Maxie, Ruth Gordon gets to deliver the line. but anyway, i digress, yet again. dancing, ginger rogers and fred astaire. wow, that was something! although he wasn't my favourite hoofer. that credit goes to Gene Kelly. but his name has nothing to do with ginger so the clip you get to see below is from the movie Swing Time. i love to dance and twice entered marathons. my high school friend Chris and i actually won a dance contest during one of those marathons, nothing like fred and ginger though. she was a great person, and actually a great cook too, Chris that is, not Ginger. she used to make food for the whole group of us when we would get together at her house. and we'd hang out and listen to music and dance. we used to have sleepovers at her house and spend the night trying to scare each other. one day she showed us a bunch of cookoo clocks she had put into the attic because she couldn't stand the ticking and while she wasn't looking i set the thing in motion. she cursed the heck out of me that night when she heard the thing going off in the dead quiet. anyway, here's fred and ginger. don't forget to turn the sound off on the music feed before you watch this.
