Imagine that! Islamic square dancing. I had not heard of
that.

In Islamic square dancing does the "square" refer to:

-- the persons allowed to participate?
-- the room in which it takes place?
-- the form of the dance?
-- none of the above?

(In the process of making these posts to you, I am beginning to realize that I have a career opportunity waiting in writing driving license exams.....)

I am sure this is pretty boring stuff for the other participants on this thread. Should we move it to the
"Disembodied Frivolities" thread?

Namaste!

Jim

Since your questions has (after painful, near dental
word surgery) become:

Do I like (Islamic?) dancing performed by square people,
in square rooms, squarely, I would have to say:

Well, it's a bit of a stretch, but yes,
I suppose,
if done,
from the heart,
roundly.

And, presuming you are female, I would have to ask:

"what's a STRANGE woman like you,
doing in a NICE place like this.....?

Please, Carolyn, drop the fan a little bit!

Namaste!

Jim
