    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Why do I feel like eating a ham sandwich when I look at those?
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    No-one's really explained it in simple terms. If the music has a regular beat, that is easy to dance to, then chances are it's 4/4. It may also be any other time signature, as well. However, musos like to mix up the time signatures ... then you will find that, despite the beat, you are continually finding yourself out of time to the music. Try dancing to Pink Floyd...
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    You are listening to the wrong radio station.

    http://www.1.fm/Station/X/Default.aspx

    http://www.181.fm/playing.php?station=181-power

    If that doesnt't suit you, go to http://shoutcast.com/ and have a rummage.

    Simple side to side dancing, quick quick slow, any more complicated steps, are all easily slotted into that timing.
