The Macarena

The dance craze that's sweeping the nation......

Ok, so it was a few years ago. But. I. Can't. Do. It. I am not co-ordinated in the least bit. I can't do the jitterbug, two-step, virginia reel, hand jive, twist, square, waltz, line, aerobic or swing dancing. I CAN do a mean pee-pee dance, however.

I am not graceful. I trip up the bleachers. I fall in the mud. I slip on the deck of the pool. I dodge snowmobiles incorrectly. I'm just a clutz. Maybe that is why I like the water so much. I don't have to be graceful in there. But, I feel graceful in there.

I love Jimi Mistry. I just read somewhere that he is "up-and-coming British talent". I fell in love with him in "The Guru". He plays an Indian dance instructor who comes to America to be a famous dancer. But ends up at an audition for a porno. Jimi: "Wanna see my Macarena?" Lenny: "Oh, is that what you kids are calling it these days?" ha! cracks me up every time I see it. And I've seen it plenty.


I've seen several other movies he's been in. Really liked "Born Romantic", "A Touch of Pink", and "Ella: Enchanted", which I need to see again, because I fell in love with Jimi after I had seen it...... Wasn't crazy about "The Truth About Love" but that may have had more to do with Jennifer Love Hewitt trying to speak with a British accent then the movie itself.

I just know that whenever I hear The Macarena....I will think of The Guru. And smile.
