Anybody up for a random meme dump?

Looks like it's pretty close to @mxz800 you guys can meet up for a TJ's, belly dancing and BBQ gathering.

Sure - no prob! But I'll warn that if, and right now its a big *IF*, I go to Plant City to teach this particular dance, he needs to know that I'm the first, and so far the only, male to ever dance this folkloric dance. Most dancing, Belly or otherwise, is gender neutral, this one isn't. It involves intercourse and child birth. Nothing salacious or lewd - its very subtle, but women in the audience "get it", and it goes over the heads of the men. I wouldn't understand it either 'cept it was explained to me. I was the first, last, and only male to ever be inducted into that particular long-running troupe. The leader, The Mighty Siwa, wasn't sure what she was going to do with me in that particular dance - but eventually said "Screw it, just dance it like everyone else.".

I was dancing this with the troupe at a wedding reception one time, and having QUITE the "conversation" through eye contact with a couple of gals in the audience. "You're a GUY, and you're dancing THAT?" "Yep - WATCH me!" Beautiful dance, its a "dance about life" as so many folkloric things are. I received special permission from (now retired) Siwa to teach this thing onward.
