Dear Balletboy,You know that this really started as lark. My story really is not true. I did get alot of laughs from your answers. I take dance and enjoy it. I also coach football and wrestling. I take the class in a rather large fitness establishment. Many who saw me for the first time last year were stunned and many strange looks, and comments were directed toward me. They were ignored and as time went on everything was like before.I really didnot get defensive about it. If you didnot want to be my friend etc., I could care less. Life is too short to worry about what other closed minded people think. I am sorry to those who took this serious. But be proud of what you are or do.I personally would and have ignored comments like I made.To be honest I have gone on to also gone on to take a jazz class also. But the tradegy and stupidy is I let public opinion keep me away for too long.I enjoy these classes and like the challenge of doing the steps etc.But I am lucky to have a great teacher!Have a great holiday season!Mike C.[/i]
