- Me too. As for the dance topic. I've tried and tried to learn how to
- dance: tap, ballroom, country, and swing lessons; being thrown bodily onto
- the dance floor, being coaxed by friends in various ways, drinking
- two (count 'em) beers first. But nothing works to overcome my dance-o-
- phobia, and so I've decided to give up on it. I mean, I'm better off
- using the time going back to playing chamber music, reading books,
- yakking with friends. But I am kind of disappointed with myself.
- Now singing, on the other hand, although I have no voice (well, I can stay
- on pitch, but that's about all) I have absolutely no shame.
