Good enough to be invited to the Govenor's Inaugural Ball to do the pre-ball entertainment. This photo was on the front page of the newspaper. That's me and my wife. Dang I guess you all know my real name now. I've got lessons from a dozen of the current and former national dance champions. I guess they would be ranked #5 in this poll. Comparing myself to them, I think I'm a 2. But comparing myself to the normal dancer, I voted 5.

I wouldn't really say I'm a good dancer, though people say that I am. I really enjoy dancing, pretty much any type (mostly club dancing though)- its a great stress reliever. Generally, I just have alot of fun out there, and that's what really matters. I've taken Salsa lessons and such, but I'm not so good at having someone depend on me to follow or perform a sequence of steps. I guess that stuff just takes a lot of practice to master....

hell no i can't. don't really have an interest in it so that probably just inceases my suckiness. my girlfriend tries to get me to dance sometimes (she loves it and is pretty good) with no avail.

I used to suck, til I realized girls like guys who can dance (I was 16 when this revelation occurred). Got good at some point, but I haven't went to a club in awhile, nor as many parties as I used to, so I'm a bit rusty these days.

I have actually never danced before... I'm 21. I never went to the school dances, just wasn't interested that much I guess. Now that I look back, it might have been a good experience especially if I ever have to dance in the future.

"There are two types of men in this world. Those who like to dance...and the heterosexuals."

I apologize if anyone finds this JOKE overly offensive. If so, please PM me and I'll remove it. And yes, it's just a joke. I'm sure there are heterosexual guys who like to dance. I just don't know any.
