Oh god, I love the idea that he contra dances. Do you contra as well, Trudy? I used to, but stopped doing it because I was having too much trouble with getting left on the sidelines...
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
The contra dancing was at a wedding, it was delightful.

Cool. It's a very social activity.

Contra dancing at the Spanish Ballroom in DC is like a religion for many. EVERY week for decades. You almost can't stay on the sidelines. I love it, except for the pathologically sweaty men. ew.
An old friend once exclaimed,"Contra dancing. Isn't that standing still?"

The gender balance here skews sometimes and I guess because I'm tall, I'll end up without a partner. If it happens enough times, I just stop going because not only is it a bummer, but it's a waste of money.
I still keep my hand in with vintage ballroom dancing, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Kate did it to herself. Kate did it to herself -- I'd not recognise that as her.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Kate has that freaky look like Meg Ryan-- it's just nasty to look at.

We kept joking about Sandanistas and covert Iranian arms deals.
