                Wow, thank you so much for this. Amazing and beautiful. I might attempt this ritual with a lady I have been sweet on lately. Think it will work? LOL

OMG...that is exactly how I dance after a few beers... :w00t:
And yes, it does work...
Too many people on both sides of the spectrum have fallen into this mentality that a full one half of the country are the enemy for having different beliefs...in a country based on freedom of expression. It is this infighting that allows the focus to be taken away from "we the people" being able to watch, and have control over government corruption and ineptitude that is running rampant in our leadership.

People should be working towards fixing problems, not creating them.

I've danced with worse...

One guy even accidentally gave me a black eye with his elbow. Nobody ever believes the real story so I had more fun making up stories for every customer that asked me about it. The people I worked with had the hardest time keeping a straight face until it was gone. *giggles* I wasn't even married at the time and I told some people my husband came home and caught me in bed with another man. :devil:

Illegal immigration isn't a new concept in the US. Just ask the Native Americans.

Oh, no...once you have danced with Fluffy...everyone else will seem like lead footed drunken sailors.  :P
