This was too good to let sit around till Friday. Appealing in a strange sort of way. My personal fave? Rise of the Bootay! But wait. There's more. Seems the Dance Man is being taken to task for stealing this idea. Ah, the intrique.

Sorry. Should warn; is a high bandwidth site with AVIs and all.

Now boys, there's enough goofy stripper style dancing for everyone. It's a big internet. I suggest that the first one to take off his clothes wins.

Now imagine this: Tuesday evening, late at night, no more red wine around... And I'm staring at some guy with a pony-tail doing really silly dances. And he's smiling and singing along too. God now I feel depressed. But then again, my dancing isn't that bad!

oddly enough (or not), www.brittney.com redirects there, which is how my co-worker found it.

didn't know people actually typed things into the address bar anymore, but i guess they do.

My first thought was "man, that dude must be lonely," until I remembered that my dancing was just as goofy. When my future super-cool-dancing wife saw me dance like a spaz while on a date, she figured if I was that confident to be dorky without caring what other people think, then I was the one for her.

Boy did I luck out.

So hats off to the happy ponytail guy, he's just doin' his thing...

Never before, when Windows has asked me "Are you sure you want to send {filename} to the Recycle Bin?" have I been more sure.

I could've used that three minutes straightening my junk drawer or dusting the basement or inventing a time machine to get back those three minutes.

Must. Learn. Restraint.

I admire anyone who is willing to make a complete fool out of himself for my personal entertainment. I wish I had half his nerve. He sure is a lousy dancer, though. Like Steve Urkel with a ponytail.

The guy may or may not be an original, but at least his dance moves aren't all "temporarily offline", like the alleged originator's dance moves.

Yawn. The site is too forced upon you. It's like hey look at me. I need attention!
It's about one year late for the novelty. I'm sticking with DancingPaul.com.

You mean I'm not the only one? It's faster than taking my hands off the keyboard to use the mouse and figure out where to click.

And what an idea! Dancing in front of a camera! Genius! I wish I had the patent for that one.
