American Bandstand...

Mama says, "When you stumble...make it part of the dance!"



I ran across this quote the other day...I saw it a while back and thankfully wrote it down. I would not have remembered it if I hadn't....I was going through some old things trying to "organize" and I found it...I am so glad I did!

This picture also evokes great memories...it's from American Bandstand...oh! my...what a show that was...I remember watching it with my mother and dancing around our living room! It was such a great show for me b/c I loved to dance and I loved the music!! Dancing...every dance they came up with...the "Twist"..."Whaaatoosie???"..."the stroll..."the jerk"...Wow...I can't remember all of them...but I remember loving imitating those gals dancing on that show! Can any of you remember some of the great dances that were debuted on this show...or some of the new acts of that era? I'm not sure how long the show ran...I think I read somewhere that it was for about 30 years or more...WOW! I was young...but I do remember what an impression this show left on me...and times with my mom!



Blessings

AB was where America's teens went to learn - not just the new songs but the new styles and the new dances! Ar least that is the way it was for me in the 60s and 70s!
I hear now that most of the bands did lip sync as required but that would have made no difference to me! I just loved seeing them and watching the kids dance! It was very cool. I always wanted to be on it...in a wild mini dress, white go go boots and
matching head band. Now....
"Hmmm now Dick. It has a great beat and I think I can really dance to it! I give iot a 9!"

But I always give YOU Teresa, a perfect 10!

How is your hand??

Hugs,
Sue

I used to LOVE watching that show. So much fun. I loved hearing the music, watching the dancing and seeing what everyone was wearing. Yep...the good old days. Wow...I sound sooo old!

Oh I LOVED American Bandstand...course when I watched it they were in Philly and Dick Clark was a young adonis...it made me so sad to see him on New Year's Rockin' Eve that I could cry. I can't say that I prefer Ryan Seacrist (spelling?) to him at all. He'll never be a Dick Clark!
Oh, and I tagged you over at my place...
hugs

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.

Choose a foods put and get in line for your meal. Even though that you're in line, look and feel close to the location where by everybody is seated and eating. Seem for the gal seated alone, as well as two girls sitting down together. When you've got your meal in hand, walk more than to just where she or they are seated and check with if it is easy to join them. If you're sincere and straightforward with them, your probabilities are rather nice.

2- Do some thinking. Earlier than you even take into consideration proceeding towards shopping mall to satisfy a chick, sit by yourself down and do some critical thinking. Keep in mind how you could possibly fulfill a toddler and what you may say to her if you , yourself are flourishing. Contemplate which components belonging to the local mall you'd check out.

Ask for benefit in picking out a jacket for your own self one example is. Executing so let's the woman know that you just are single. If she agrees to help you, ask her other queries as you grab various jackets to have a go with on.

It had become obvious to cyclists that most fatalities and severe injuries came from head injuries, but it was not until the mid-1970s that Bell invented a crushable, EPS foam liner for its Bell Biker helmet. Many of the advances in helmet safety are attributed to a non-profit organization called the Snell Foundation, which began testing bike helmets in the 1980s.One method of relaxation is hypnosis.
