I&#8217;m not very good at it and haven&#8217;t had enough chances to practice, but I can now hold down the basics of cross step and rotary. Since learning it, I&#8217;ve begun to notice much more distinctly songs that are in 3/4 or [...]]]></description>

But I still needed to actually get a bed. Feeling inspired [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve now been dancing swing for a little over two years. The people I&#8217;ve met through it have been overwhelmingly some of the nicest, most generous-spirited people anywhere&#8230; and also, a lot of the guys are pretty geeky.

Why?

The least charitable answer is &#8220;the geeks are there because there are women there,&#8221; but that&#8217;s not the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Easter time, and sermons are now discussing stories surrounding the Passion. One of these that I&#8217;ve always had a lot of difficulty with is the story of Jesus being anointed with perfume. It actually appears in all four gospels (with some rather significant variations), but let&#8217;s just take a quick look at the account [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been frustrated looking online for honest feedback from the customers of businesses and services I am considering patronizing, so I&#8217;ve structured this post as a series of reviews.
