Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Hmm. I love Dan as a judge. Who knew?

I like Sabra. She's cute as a button. Very solid technique. I don't think she's the best dancer of the season. I'm not even sure she was the best girl of the season. But that was a solid, well-danced solo. Shame she had to go after Danny's solo and that great Mia piece. I might've liked it more.

Sabra is just amazing.

Thrive to spite them

Sabra just exudes sheer joy when she dances. Danny does too. I get the same feeling when they dance.

It was cute. I thought the hunchback was back. I mean, I guess the dance is a little bit hunchy. It did look extremely difficult.

That looked like a damn hard routine. I felt a couple of the lifts slowed the routine down, but they did a great job keeping the energy going.

OK, people often seem kinda hunchback and bent over when doing the Lindy Hop, but damn did that and the high-waisted pants make Neil look bad in this. Forget any of the dancing...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I had many thoughts while trying to catch up with this thread. Let's see how many I remember...

I was thinking the other day that Neil could do Cabaret, but way dirtier than that came out tonight.

I don't understand why they hated the girls' number so much. And I was annoyed that the boys spent half the time sitting in chairs. Although they were totally about to get dirty. And I loved when Danny winked when he said "This is for you, Nigel," or whatever the line was. I like when Danny gets campy.

I wish they had done more single-gender dances -- like, when it was down to eight, or six, why couldn't they do one couple dance and one small-group? That would have been fun, I think.

I have a weird love of Lacey's "big" legs. I think I like seeing someone who looks substantial doing all that dancing.

I'm afraid Neil is going to win.

I missed the dance - feverish Casper woke up - but based on the costumes - ick. They looked like Osmonds or something.

Just thinking, with all the different dances these four had to learn for this week those poor schmucks must be totally exhausted.
