Israeli, International Thursday, English, Clogging

Hello Gainesville Ocala Israeli and Folk Dancers,
 
There is no Israeli Dancing this Thursday. Israeli dancing returns next week.
 
This Thursday, tonight, is an interesting and fun event at the Harn museum with the International Folk dancers performing and leading audience participation.
 
English Country dancing continues this Thursday night.
 
Expand your folk dance repetoire with good old American folk dancing. This Sunday is a clogging social and I believe newcomers are most welcome.
 
Next Thursday the incomparable Yair Dalal will be in concert at 7 pm in the Atrium of Ustler Hall at UF, with extraordinary hauntingly, magical music from the oud. www.YairDalal.com
 
Happy Dancing,
Andy

Quotes:
 
- To quote a dictum of Simon, what a horse does under compulsion he does blindly, and his performance is no more beautiful than would be that of a ballet-dancer taught by whip and goad. The performances of horse or man so treated would seem to be displays of clumsy gestures rather than of grace and beauty. What we need is that the horse should of his own accord exhibit his finest airs and paces at set signals. ~ Xenophon

- To dance or to marry, one has to get close. ~ Spanish Proverb

Article: My Mother's Date
 
Took my nephew to the Itchetucknee today. Called him last night to charge the water proof camera. When I picked him up, I asked him where the camera was. His sister took it to the beach. She does not even go in the water. Makes you shake your head.
 
My mother will be 78 this month. Last year she was over a friend's house and the guy jumped her. She was not interested and fended him off. Once a natural beauty, always a natural beauty.
 
My sister has been looking for someone for my mother for a while and set my mother up with one of my sister's patients.
 
The guy took her out one night and last Friday had her over for dinner with his daughter. I met him. He was a nice guy.
 
Tonight he called her and asked her to a movie.
 
In a phone call that lasted less than ten seconds, my mother said, "Look Bill," in tone that would chill a hot day in Florida,  "I am not interested in dating," and bam hung up the phone.
 
It is not the rudest thing I have seen a woman do, but I told her it was.
 
She could not have cared less and did not give the poor guy one second thought.
 
If you thought it was going to get easier when you got older, it is not.
