  You're a divine dancer, Lois, which goes to prove an axiomatic law of the
  universe: unsolicited chatty "teachers" are crappy, clueless dufus'...

  On a side note, I think Astrid is really intelligent & articulate, funny 2.
  I would imagine sunglasses would get in the way, if you're dancing with
  your partner's head gently next to yours.

  I still like seeing the 2 people  chatting on a cell-phone, while dancing
  close-embrace, having separate conversation, yikes!
