Carolyn (doing a really cool dance move): Hey Dad, if I ever have to play an awkward nerd trying to act really cool, *this* is how I will dance. Me: Oh.
My high school physics teacher, Admiral Peebles, showed us episodes of this nerdy, awesome science video, which demonstrated what various common motions (a falling ball, a rolling ball) look like from fixed and moving frames of reference. The 1969 movie 2001: A Space Odyssey featured a huge rotating set, a realistic representation of artificial gravity in…

The whole response is worth a sincere, rousing “slow clap”.
Technology and artistry combine in this touching story. After dance teacher Adrianne Haslet-Davis lost part of her leg in the Boston Marathon bombing last year, she made a promise to herself that she would perform again. So, Haslet-Davis spent the next year of her life working with Hugh Herr, who outfitted her with a revolutionary…

Mr. Merrell said he envisioned several 45-minute classes on weekends for students who are interested. But, several other members strongly…
@JoolieBoolie210 The curtain call dance alone made me want to see the show again.
In the restaurant parking lot after dinner (thanks, Grandma Pat) I mentioned to Carolyn that today is National Dance Day. She rarely needs much encouragement to perform.
My daughter (in pigtails) joins the Wacongo Dance Company in an audience participation segment… then joins her cast waiting to perform her own show.
This is how my parents finish their Argentine Tango routine. My mother says, “I’d like to get up now.” My father looks down at her. “Oh, you would, would you?”
