I sent this to a cousin of mine. I liked it so much, I had to repost it. It's one of the few times where I came out a big winner. :)

Okay, I"m not talking about faggy ball room dancing, or even swing, which is kinda cool. But learn to appreciate music and express that appreciation with your body. Nothing beats it, nothing. Okay, dancing with a girl tops it. Okay, a beautiful girl is even better.

Actually, swing is really back in fashion, depending on your circle of friends. I was at a bar once, and this really beautiful looking Latina was standing by herself, I struck up a conversation thus:

me: Excuse me, I don't wanna sound stupid, but I really love that colour of blue on your dress. You remind me of my childhood....

Her: Really? (Giggles), how so?

me: Serious. When I was a kid, I used to walk in the mountains with my grandparents, we'd always walk by this one house that had the exact same shade of blue on its window shutters as the one you're wearing, it's very comforting when I see you in that dress. Makes me think of myself when I was a kid.

Her: Oh really? Well I'm glad I can bring a little bit of your childhood back for you. (Turns to leave)

me: Well, thanks again, the dress looks great on you BTW. Where did you buy it?

Her: (turns back, smiles even more) I made it myself.

me: Bogus, you couldn't have, it just looks so stunning.... you in it. You make the dress look good I guess. (Cheesy compliment, but true. You really had to see her in it!)

Her: (Smiles, she knows the game is on.) You don't believe me? Feel for the tag on the inside of my dress.....

She was wearing a one piece tube dress. Very sexy, and she had, umm... big pecs.

I put my hand inside the top back of her dress, and I accidently pulled and unhooked one of her bra straps. I swear, it was an accident. But unhooking a bra strap with one hand have always been a trick of mine. Don't ask. I'm not a pervert, something I picked up in Grade 7.... as my female buddies let me practice. ;-)

She turns around, totally shocked.

me: Whoops. Sorry.

She does it back up, smiles, knowing the game is in full effect. "See? I told you."

We talked a little longer, really cool getting to know her. I remember talking about her coming from Ecudor, and the type of foods she liked; how she hated bread soup, etc. Then finally her friends came to get her so she had to leave, and that was that. I don't ask for phone numbers. I'm happy just to have other men at the club stare at me enviously b/c I'm talking to a hot chick. My friend came up to me later and he's like: Wow, I can't believe you were talking to her, she was so freaking hot.

I'm like, "Yeah. We even danced a little."

Swing dancing, I swear it works. You don't have to be good. But if a girl asks you to dance, don't be all like "I'm too cool, so I'll just sit here."

....fool and cool, only a letter apart.
