Tina's No Ballerina

An exotic dancer billed as Tina
Used to writhe on stage like a hyena ~
   Today Tina has four kids
   She mustn't do what she did ~
Now 'Mommy' performs the Macarena

L Milton Hankins Date: 10/6/2021 9:55:00 AM (chuckling) Gershon, you have such an imagination and sense of humor. Hmmm...do you know the Macarena??? Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 10/6/2021 5:36:00 PM Do I know the Macarena? The most popular 'white dance' in Chicago for almost two decades?! --- Nah, never heard of it. Chuckle. :) gw

Sally Eslinger Date: 10/6/2021 9:19:00 AM What a riot! Gershon, it sounds like you know this versatile, artistic lady from one of your pub haunts and its weekend bands with occasional side acts. 40 yrs ago, 1st dating, Jim & I were applauded while kissing in such a place…haha time changes us all, sometimes too much. A super read to start my day. Best wishes! Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 10/6/2021 9:35:00 AM Ha, ha! Would you believe that I've never been in a bar?! -- Well, would you believe that I've never had a drink in a bar?! Well, I actually drank in a bar twice in my 20's, much to my chagrin... But I never, and I mean never, have been in a bar with (ahem) 'exotic' or any other kind of dancers. lol. (All of this is true). ~ Mr. Goody Two-Shoes

Chris Green Date: 10/6/2021 7:12:00 AM I think once kids are in the picture, the term "Pasties" takes on an entirely new meaning. : ) Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 10/6/2021 5:35:00 PM Yes, indeed, Chris... a whole new meaning... lol. ~ gw

Tom Cunningham Date: 10/6/2021 1:39:00 AM We all grow up eventually unable to perform the moves of our youth. Tom Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 10/6/2021 5:34:00 PM Heck, I can't even perform the moves of my 60's! lol. Thanks, Tom.

Michelle Faulkner Date: 10/5/2021 9:37:00 PM Better be careful with those Macarena moves :) Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 10/6/2021 5:33:00 PM Yeah, those dance moves may be interpreted as me ordering multiple 'Big Macs!' (Not Kosher! lol). Thanks for the heads-up, Michelle. Smiles, gw
