Oh yeah I kind of remember seeing kids on the dance shows doing this. My 7th grade was a few years later and to this day I don't know what kind of dance we did! What dance is it when you are moving around on the floor in free form to Simon & Garfunkel, the Kinks and the Doors?? ;-) > EVOO is 'extra virgin olive oil' on pretentious menus... Oh dear, no!! > Another slowdance song that I've recalled since > my post is 'Since I fell for You' ... Lenny Welch Ahhhh, this is one of my favorite songs of all time. Sigh. Which reminds me of my favorite slow dance moment of all time - at the Rockin Robin in Haight Asbury in 1987...on a business trip...falling madly in love with a handsome co-worker as we dance to "I Only Have Eyes For You" ....ahh, but I digress ;-) > Kakki, we are certainly dating ourselves! Yes, kind of brings new meaning to the term "JMDL Dating Club" - teeheehee Kakki
