On "THAT DAY" and "THAT HEADLINE," I'm posting Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dancing videos all day long

[Miles Archer]

I don't know if we will WAKE UP to the good news or if it will happen while we're going about our everyday activities.

But when I see THAT HEADLINE, I'm going to go the NON-VERBAL POSTING ROUTE.

LOTS of CLIPS of Fred & Ginger.

DANCING.

And I will be dancing along with them.

1. If the house is a-rockin', don't bother knockin'.

[Aristus]

2. Mrs. Aristus and I are going to get hammered on champagne.

Well, maybe hammered isn't quite the word; a champagne-drunk is one of the more pleasant ways of being intoxicated. But we're going all-in on the celebrating.

[evolves]

17. What's your address?

I'll bring 3 cases of bubbly!!

[Aristus]

18. If you're in Puyallup, Washington,

trust me, you'll be able to find the place. I'm talking searchlights flashing across the sky, fireworks, a band, jet flyovers, high-kicking Rockettes lining the road, you name it.

[evolves]

23. What a party

we all will have!!

[BH liberal]

3. The young Ginger Rogers...

What a babe she was!

[Moostache]

4. I'm going to be incoherently drunk within an hour...

The DAY after, when I have my hang-over and regret the revelry of the preceding day, I will find time to curse his wretched existence the entire day... but I won't be unhappy any longer!

[The Blue Flower]

5. AND, as others have pointed out

She did it backwards and in heels.

[efhmc]

8. Didn't she say this herself? I really watched her feet during this clip and she was always accurate and just great;

I miss this type of entertainment. Well, I guess this is what the internet is for.

[SheltieLover]

6. What a wonderful idea, a planning committee!

[Wednesdays]

7. Let's start planning for January 20, 2029.

Even if TSF kicks the bucket before then, Repugs will still be in control of the White House (and TSF's potential replacements are WORSE in many ways).

But on that date, they will ALL be gone.

[lamp_shade]

9. Thanks. I needed that.

[GopherGal]

10. The Street Party will be in session

?]

All over the world (except maybe Merde-a-Lardo):

?]

[niyad]

11. Most excellent idea!

[lastlib]

12. I've got the fireworks in the closet, ready to blow!

Champagne is covered.

I'm READY! Hey, donnie, your TIME is UP! STROKE OUT!

[twodogsbarking]

13. Insane. Thanks.

[PatSeg]

14. For me, it will be Gene Kelly in Singing in the Rain

[3catwoman3]

28. One of my all time favorite musical numbers.

It's so joyous.

[PatSeg]

32. I agree

It is so uplifting and energizing, plus I love Gene Kelly.

[3catwoman3]

33. And his skill with manipulating the umbrella...

...while doing all his fancy footwork is quite dazzling.

I love musicals, even tho they are completely unrealistic.

[PatSeg]

34. Well, being "unrealistic" could be the appeal

Plus they affect us emotionally in a good way.

Gene Kelly was a masterful and very disciplined choreographer. It is so apparent in all his dance sequences. When my twin grandsons were as young as one or two years old, I used to play that scene for them and they loved it. Of course, they liked all the song and dance routines, but that was their favorite and they frequently would imitate it with their little umbrellas.

[Trailrider1951]

15. Sounds good to me :)

I'm also awaiting the day that the Russian TV media plays "Swan Lake".

[niyad]

24. Please do not insult those who practice the Craft of the Wise. They

have nothing to do with the fucking orange traitor.

[RVN VET71]

19. She makes him look soooo good

dancing backwoods in high heels. And that face! So pretty. (Ginger, I mean.)

[joshdawg]

20. Thank you for this!

I can watch Ginger all day long.

[MustLoveBeagles]

21. What a great way to celebrate 🎉

[KS Toronado]

22. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dancing videos ?

Wouldn't you rather have Dancing With The Stars?

[Initech]

25. I've got my champagne on ice!

[wcmagumba]

26. Love it, I went to college with Ginger Roger's half niece, her dad was Ginger's much younger half brother...

I don't think we ever danced together though (me and her niece) but we were in some theatre and choral music productions together. I also took voice lessons from her mom, nice people. As a vocal exercise her mom made me lay flat on the floor in her studio and said loudly "use it" talking about breathing and vocalizing together or something. Not sure I ever figured that out...funny though.

[Stardust Mirror]

27. If I'm asleep when it happens I'll know because

because of the honking horns and cheering I'll hear

[electric_blue68]

30. Hahahaaaa. My scenerio is similar...I'm sleeping late, and....

particularly bc I live in NYC I'm going to be awakened by all the cheering, and car honking!!!
😄🎉😄🎉😄🎉😄

🤔 I wonder what colors will the Empire State Building display that night? R,W & B?
I wish there was a common color that represented Freedom!

[boonecreek]

29. I'll be playing the Grateful Dead song "He's Gone".

From the Europe '72 album.

[Permanut]

31. MCE and I are both over 30 years sober..

And we're going to raise a scotch on the rocks in celebration of the event.

[Emile]

35. I went to Shelton Fireworks store and bought up

a nice assortment of fireworks for the celebration.

Probably piss off my republican neighbors, but who cares !

[librechik]

36. well on that day, unfortunately, as glorious as it will be

we will definitely be "Dancing in the Dark"

The oligarchy ain't going anywhere. And I can't imagine what horror will be coming after Trump.





Dems must step up, for sure. 5 alarm fire now arriving at gate 1-100.
