let it be noted, it takes a minute or so to see the whole thing, but completely worth it. the animator is one very talented individual.

3. A recent GF of mine worked with Martha.

When she first got to NYC, her first job was working at "Cheeseburga Cheeseburga" and her second was pulling Martha out from under the sofa in the Green Room.

GF went on to work and choreograph with Martha, Alvin Ailey and Baryshnikov - the only person in Dance to work at that level with all three of them.

She has launched an international tour of David Maness' "They Marched into Sunlight", which will show this Friday at Hofstra and June 10 at 92nd Street Y.

Pretty powerful, if one is into Dance.

That was the first thing I saw on my machine this morning and it just floored me.
