The Evolution of Dance — Bet You Laugh!
ME Liz Strauss wrote this at 8:40 pm
Welcome to Saturday Night at the Movie on a Friday Night
I’d be so surprised if this doesn’t make you laugh!
Common experience is a social thing.
Social media takes many forms. When it’s done well it reminds us of our humanity. This one combines music and memories with laughter — combined in right measure you get viral.
We want to share great experiences.
Did you see yourself and people you know in this video?

I can totally see my dad doing the twist! The funny thing is, at every big family event, he can’t wait till the music comes on b/c he wants to sneak in his cd to do the twist…
