7. I didn't until I roomed with a guy who had a drum set
6 months later, after lots of practice I was the drummer in a college band. I still suck (because I never took lessons), but at least I have rhythm. :)

11. i'm a little more twyla tharp however...
Days can be sunny, with never a sigh
Don't need what money can buy
Birds in the trees sing their day full of song
Why shouldn't we sing along?

I'm chipper all the day, happy with my lot
How do I get that way? Look at what I've got

I got rhythm, I got music
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?
I got daisys, in green pastures
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?

Old man trouble
I don't mind him
You won't find him 'round my door
I got starlight
I got sweet dreams
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?

----- scat -----

Old man trouble
I don't mind him
You won't find him, 'round my door
I got starlight
I got sweet dreams
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?

I got rhythm, I got music
I got daisys, in green pastures
I got starlight
I got sweet dreams
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?

I've been jamming to some music a very dear friend sent me! The boss thinks I am crazy :crazy:

Edit: I dance in public - even if I look like peppermint patty - dancing is fun! :rofl: So yeah, I have rhythm - my own.

21. I got caught dancing in my chair at work today - I had one leg moving
in time to the music and my head bopping up and down. :blush:

I have to call my kids (they are at grandma's tonight) and then I'll resend Death is a Star - That song is HOT and really SAXY :D

25. I always am chair dancing.
That is one of the benefits of working in a small office - the boss knows that I am a little off, he overlooks it! :crazy:

20. She drums on everything in time with the music, but claims to be
unable to dance - I don't see how those things are mutually exclusive, but to her they are (personally, I think she's just shy :o)

24. Shy - dancing has nothing to do with shyness.
If it sounds good and if you feel it, then you just have to do it!

39. Have you tried Capezio on line?
I live near a dance shop that stocks only capezio shoes and only Danskin dance wear. They always seem to have everything, but you could probably find decent shoes on line.

57. I'm curious why you define "having rhythm" solely in relation to dance
:shrug:

I have rhythm for fuckin' days, even polyrhythms.

But I'm only an okay dancer, and then, only certain kinds of dances.

poll responses. Besides, it was really a secret plot to determine who may or may not be good in bed. So sue me. :P
