Diggin' OWS?

So, I had my itunes on random yesterday and this song came on, so we started talking about how we should put it on the loudspeakers at Occupy Wall Street. We think it's a great idea. :)



Do they not teach this anymore???

And I can't not rave about how this is one of my FAVORITE Gene Kelly dances. When I was little I didn't know the name of the movie (Summerstock) so I called it the "dancing on the table movie." A-mazing!! When I was at  BYU I had to perform this ballet Esmeralda solo and there were a lot of repeats in it, which I thought was boring,  but I rewatched this movie and the way Gene Kelly made each dig stick out with very subtle changes inspired me. Esmeralda was a lot more fun after that. Though with the tambourine it was already pretty awesome :)

If you don't like the grainy-ness, just press play on the side music! :)

Yes, just imagine one of their leaders and or dare I say, manipulators, say a phrase, then (as they have been doing) pause, in order for those around them to repeat it for the rest of the crowd to hear?

I would dig that. I love simple analogies. ;)
