Why doesn't anybody dance like that anymore? Sometime around the end of the 60's people got the notion in their heads that you don't need someone else to dance with, just someone to dance at. I am often asked if I dance by women I meet and I say "no" because I know that they mean by todays definiton of dancing with a partner. Whatever happened to having your dance partners body in your arms, moving as one across the dance floor in a sexual rythm? Kids today don't know what they are missing...just a hopefull romantic is me. ;)
