Hello Gainesville Ocala Israeli and Folk Dancers and Friends,
My mother was watching this movie. Kept her company for a little bit and on came this great musical number. From the movie "Merry Andrew" with Danny Kaye. At 3:17 there is a short sequence with some incredible dancers. Only watch if you can afford to smile for 5 minutes.

Defiance is at the Hippodrome through March 24. Heard it was the best show in a year. Highly recommended.
Lots of dancing the next few days and mark 3/28 on your schedule.
Happy Dancing,
Andy

Quotes:
- I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business. - Michael J. Fox, 1961-present
- As an engineer, if you want to advance something, you have to keep your eyes open, because what you are taught in textbooks has limitations. When you have an open mind, you will discover there are more things out there than what has been understood so far. ~ Wolfgang Sigmund, Professor of Materials Sceince and Engineering, University of Florida, on research team discovering water proof material based on spider hairs
