Jesus man@Gay for Longo I’m not gonna live up to finishing off the menu today. I wont be smoking for awhile. I think I have the swine flu, no joke. My son is in the hospital and his labs just came back and he tested positive for the H1N1 virus. I started not feeling well this morning and im headed to the dr.
I hope you both feel better
Good luck, please keep us informed
Not even kidding man. Shit has me trippin.
Thanks i will. My wife is calling my dr cuz they might not even want me to go into the office. She’s one of those nurse peoples so i listen to her.
I'm just regurgitating a news article I read, I'm from a province where it's nothing but white Irish Catholics so I don't see racism and quite frankly think it's a myth.
Little Johnny's teacher was teaching about the word 'Contagious'... and asked Little Johnny if he could use it in a sentence.
Little Johnny says; "Yes, whenever we are in the car waiting to go somewhere and mom's still inside, my dad always says 'it'll take that contagious to get ready!"'
my grampa told me that one.

The town I come from is very white and there were some problems towards Asians years ago from some stupid kids
There was a little racism towards the few black people in town but that got dealt with quickly
Sorry man
My daughter actually asked to take a nap so I'm trying to take advantage lol
Hot Gossip (1974–1986) were a British dance troupe, who made television appearances and in 1978 backed Sarah Brightman on her single, "I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper".[1]
FormationEdit
Arlene Phillips moved to London to learn and teach developing American Jazz dance routines. Employed as a dance teacher, she taught at locations including the Pineapple Dance Studios and the Italia Conti Stage School. In 1974, Phillips started forming the core of a troupe; Italia Conti student actress Lesley Manville turned her down.[2] Hot Gossip spent two years performing in Munkberry's club in Jermyn Street W1 where Phillips and manager/producers Michael Summerton and Iain Burton developed the group's dance act. Phillips, Summerton and Burton continued to work together for eight years during which time Hot Gossip continued to enjoy wide popularity and success.

Hot Gossip were noted for the risque nature of their costumes and the dance routines, all designed and choreographed by Phillips, especially considering the early evening timeslot that the Video Show was broadcast in. They are often credited as one of the UK's early television dance troupes, continuing a trend which started with the Go-Jo's and Pan's People on Top of the Pops.
The group was once spoofed on The Benny Hill Show as Hot Gossamer, with references to the Hot Gossip routines 'Supernature' and 'Walk on the Wild Side'. Some former Hot Gossip dancers appeared on the show, notably Jane Colthorpe and Lorraine Doyle were members of Love Machine. Then later Lorraine Doyle featured heavily in sketches as well as part of the Hill's Angels dance troupe.
