Armadillo Friday!  Armadillo Friday!

Tell you what:  howsabout you people dance, and me and the little guy just sit here with a 12-pack of Corona Light and some cheddar popcorn and watch all the silly white folk strain to locate the beat in Johnny Cash’s American Recordings IV.

    I’ll dance, but I’d like a beer too, if you don’t mind.  Just helps to kinda gets me in the mood.  Plus, dancing is thirsty work.

  2. leelu says:

    Cruel.

    Just cruel.

    You *know* we can’t dance.

    Turing word:”volume”, as in, turn up the…

  3. mojo says:

    Oh, okay….

    But John Travolta I’m not.

    Cue up the KC…

    SB: water

    On the brain

  4. MC says:

    And … PIE! WE DEMAND PIE while we dance…

  5. TomB says:

    And how do you know we’re all white, Jeff?

  6. mojo says:

    Wait a minuite…

    With or >iwithout</i> the armadillo?

    And what kinda time do I get for punting the little quisling bastard into the balcony?

    SB: neither

    regions

  7. Jeff Goldstein says:

    TomB —

    I don’t. But everybody knows its only white people who can’t dance.  Every other ethnic group?  Pros.  Must be in the blood.

  8. Scott P says:

    RACIST!!!!

  9. Ward Churchill says:

    Eichmann!

  10. B Moe says:

    If you can’t dance, I would recommend going to WashingtonMonthly, finding the entry on the National Sales Tax, and read the comment thread.  Hilarious.

  11. Hoodlumman says:

    My rendition of “the worm” has gotten me laid in seven states.

  12. Ward Churchill says:

    Sorry, wrong thread.

    It could happen to anybody.

  13. TomB says:

    Every other ethnic group?  Pros.

    If I remember my ethic studies courses from college (which entailed watching the movie “16 candles”), I can pretty much state as an expert that Chinamen cannot dance.

  14. Jeff Goldstein says:

    They can if you play gong music.

  15. McGehee says:

    I’m out. I’d make “break” dancing a bit too literal…

  16. mojo says:

    My dinner came with this bite-sized pearl of wisdom:

    “The simplest and most necessary truths are the last believed.”

    Yes, it had protein in it. Honey-walnut Prawns.

  17. OK, I get to dance “Personal Jesus”.

  18. CraigC says:

    It would be a lot funnier watching them trying to dance to “Whipping Post.”

  19. MC says:

    Ping?

    Pong?

  20. gail says:

    Not I am a Chinese man named Ping! And I can’t dance. Don’t ask me.

  21. gail says:

    Shoot, that was supposed to be “No,” not “Not.”

  22. Jay says:

    OT:  Martha Stewart has her home confinement extended by three weeks.  Meanwhile, there’s nothing on your web site about it.  Not a diary entry, not a posting, not nothing.

    What gives, Jeff?  Have we given up on lesbian eroticism?  Are you trying to move up-market?

    Spam word: figures.  As in, it figures there would be something about her, wouldn’t it?

  23. Ian Wood says:

    Man, I got three apple martinis and a six-pack of Mike’s lemon-flavored alcoholic pisswater that says I beat your ass in a fair fight with big duct-tape foambats, then jump up and down on your casket singing Ave Maria wearing a day-glo g-string and ravey glittery eyeshadow.

  24. JWebb says:

    Armadillos are not only great dancers, they’re excellent jumpers.

    And how racist is that?

  25. JorgXMcKie says:

    Seeing Ward Churchhill’s ugly entries reminded me.  I got lotsa Native American (well, they *call* themselves Indians, but what the hell would they know) in-laws, and trust me, they can’t dance for sh*t.  They make me look like Fred Astaire.

    As for Ward Churchill, I’m willing to be he couldn’t dance if the Lone Ranger was shooting at his feet.

    Turing word: rate.  I’d rate Ward Churchill’s dancing ability below that of a centipede with about a dozen broken legs.

  26. Owlish says:

    Sorry, I just went dancing with two white gay guys, one of which could dance quite well, one of which was horrible. Stereotypes don’t always work.

    And besides, get that funky music goin, and I doubt the ‘dillo can just sit there.

  27. david says:

    I’m of the opinion that the armadillo has never actually danced.  Ever.

    Which means that he’s not really a dancing armadillo.

    I demand a refund!!!!  Because of the Hypocracy!!!

  28. Ana says:

    You! You white person trying to dance. Stop biting your lip.

  29. McGehee says:

    Of course the armadillo has danced. His best move is “the pogo.”

  30. gail says:

    Trouble is, McGehee, he’ll only do it into the undercarriage of a passing semi.

    Spamword: own. He OWN that move.

  31. CraigC says:

    All your moves are belong to us!

  32. McGehee says:

    Trouble is, McGehee, he’ll only do it into the undercarriage of a passing semi.

    That’s how ‘dilloes hitchhike.

    It’s a steep learning curve, I’ll admit…

  33. MC says:

    Late? Sometimes it takes research to find out what really happened. I AM A CITIZEN JOURNALIST!

    Manual trackback’s are better late than never.
