Well, you must've watched The Flintstones and Gilligan in syndicated reruns, 'cuz those shows were on when *I* was a kid. . .

The three things you "can do" - I can't do because I don't even know what they are!

Desmond -- I think Flintstones was just a really long-running show. But Gilligan's was reruns.

If you're ever in the area, call! I make a mean Butter Chicken.

Cocotte -- A spinning back kick is something I learned in Krav, looks cool and packs a wallop. (Which is to say, if you do it right, your opponent may wet themselves. lol) An Amen break beat is a popular drum loop -- you've heard it a million places (think "Two Princes" by the Spin Doctors) and it's the first -- and only -- "slick" thing I picked up on the drumkit. And, top rock and six step are two basic breakdance moves that I knew how to do once upon a time and could maybe do again if my life depended on it. Hence the "sortof" that follows it.

Three things I like about you:
1) Your a great auntie
2) You aren't afraid to try new things
3) You love 80's metal, even though I don''t. :O)

JJ -- sorry I missed seeing your comment. I love you for many reasons, too, girl! THanks.

Very interesting, I did something similar a few weeks ago! Seems like parasailing is not probably not something you'd enjoy. :)
