Brigit,

Unfortunately, I have other plans and cannot make it.
However, this is VERY intriguing (and we could get
into a big thing over religion, but....). You see, to
be historically correct, the Jewish and Christian
women DID dance - dance was used as a form of worship.
Since I was brought up in the Baptist church, I know
that, to them, dancing is a no-no; however, nowhere
in MY Bible does it say that. And, as a Baptist, I
would love to be there and dance with you. (Yes, I
love freaking the mundanes.)
It's unfortunate that man's laws prevent us from
enjoying all the goodness God has given us. Oh, well.

On another note... are we dancing tonight?  At Caelin's?
