Fresh meat!

Tito - I have Dance with Me on DVD. Save the Last Dance too. Shall we Dance with Richard Geren and Jennifer Lopez I love. I've also got Flashdance, Salsa, One Last Dance (With Patrick Swayze as a ballet dancer), Billy Eliot (hehe), Stricly Ballroom and a few others (unknown ones).

I've seen Michael Flatley live twice. It was amazing.

Mad Matt - Wow. I thought you seemed Dutch.

Capt. Morgan - I didn't know that bridge is American.

oderlesseye - Thank you.

blackjohn - That's neat! Noviomagus indeed. We celebrate our 2000th anniversary this year too.

[Mad Matt]

So....umm.....what are Dutch people like, then?

[~Lady Pirate~]

Scary. Very scary.

Honest (although foreigners use the word rude), straightforward, down to earth, thoughtful (before me do something, we think of the consequences and whether the action will be worth it), intelligent (we're all at least trilangual), sarcastic.

[Mad Matt]

That mostly sound like me...

Trilingual? Hell yeah, I've tried ling....oh.

Your talking about something else, probably

[blackjohn]

I had the pleasure to meet some of my friend's Dutch relatives when he got married. I'd agree with all of the above, well, except the sarcasm. They all seemed rather bright, and well-versed in many subjects.

I have to admit I was mostly referring to myself with the sarcasm.

Some actually speak 5 different languages by the time they leave school. I only speak German, Dutch and English.

That's impressive. I would imagine that being fluent in such a wide variety of languages is good for the brain.

[~Lady Pirate~]

I'm sure it is. I'd like to learn more languages though. French, Spanish, Italian , Russian, Scottish-Gaelic, Latin, Ancient Greek. I've got a long wish list.

[Barbados Sam]

Me too. In my time I have learned and forgotten Spanish and Latin and German. I'd really like to learn and forget Polish, Mandarin, Greek, French, and a few others. I'd really really like to re-learn Latin, and not forget any of it.

[Dorian Lasseter]

Hmm....

Long list here too...

I've learned and forgotten most of my Spanish, French, and German, and both Lenape and Lakota (Native American) as well...

Want to relearn Spanish, Lenape and Lakota, maybe French again... Add Gaelic an' who knows wotelse....

[Pew]

I wanna learn whatever language they speak at the drive-thru . . .

Gaelic would be neat. I like Hieroglyphics though, more visual, like the pictographs found in the Southwest. Learning to decipher that kind of stuff would be interesting.

[Swifty Morgan]

I second that! I would love to be able to decipher things like that. <3

Swifty Morgan - I envy you. I don't know any dances. I'd love to learn them though.

[Swifty Morgan]

I have performed those dances

in a couple places here in my state

Also at the rose garden in Portland Oregan

Lass, we had some Dutch exchange students in my high school when I was a Junior and you guys are like WAYYYYYYYY ahead of the US, especially in math. This one kid would be so bored in our math class because it was so been there-done that for him.

Have you seen Flash Dance 2, Havana Nights? That one was good too.

I also like to play Salsa rhythms as I try to be a pretty good conga drum player. I also like to do melodic Latin lics on my trombone with some of the Latin improv methods. Its kewl playing some of the charts.

Are you guys getting into Reggaeton over there? Thats like the LATEST Latin thang with Daddy Yankee, Loony Tunes, etc...

You mean Dirty Dancing 2: Havena Nights? I love that one. Don't know why it was a flop. I thought it was great.

I'm really bad at math myself but at higher education I'm sure the students learn all kinds of complex math stuff I couldn't understand in my wildest dreams.

We're into Reggaeton. With Skakira's La Tortura and one other song. *thinks* Can't remember the title. I didn't like it much. I love La Tortura and have it on my computer.

[piratescave]

No one aboard who speaks and understands Gronings? That's a dialect spoken in the North of Holland, where I come from (and Lady Pirate).

Now we live in Noviomagus, where they speak Nijmeegs. That's a funny dialect!

But I sailed the North Sea, the Mediterrean Sea (loved Malta, have you ever been to Valetta, the capital of Malta) and lived for a year in Italy, so I speak Italian as well.

Sweet Havannah nights with sweet salsa music, that would be yarn great!

Well, Lady Pirate is having a hell of time out here. Perhaps I should lock her up for a few days, only on water and bread.... (teasing!)

[Captain Tito]

You mean Dirty Dancing 2: Havena Nights?

Yah, ooops sorry

I really liked that one too. Movie crowds are sometimes too picky

The big Reggaeton tunes around here have been Gasolina and also, Girl Like You both by Daddy Yankee.

I like Sharkira too. I wish she would tour more.

I went to the 116th St. Fest in NYC last June and between every act on the stages, they would blast Reggaeton and we all just moved to it.

It was awesome.

Meany!

I know Gasolino. That is the other song I meant. Couldn't think of the name. The girl looks a lot like Shakira. Seems like a wannabe to me.

[oderlesseye]

eyes ain't as cultured as yer -r-.. jus wanta say eahhh... never seen a newbie thread tak on a life of it's own like this.. Is this gonna be yer home page?

[~Lady Pirate~]

Maybe.

I guess I'm a rather chatty person.
