    House of the boom boom variety is very monotonous to
    dance to. Especially to the ear accustomed to
    polyrythmic funky happenings à la James Brown or fela,
    I mean, there is no comparison. I get bored and
    irritated when the dj or selector starts doing boom
    boom.

    Last night I took a friend down to salsa pa ti at the
    bar rhumba. A pity I missed the dance classes cos I
    was totally unprepared for what hit me. I've never
    seen so many eager ladies willing to sweat and hustle
    and bustle but I couldnt respond. A bit like a
    hot-blooded eunuch at the height of his sexual life in
    a harem full of erm... eager ladies... But I
    digress...Life is fair as fair but so uncool (rare
    groove tune by Commodores, I think).

    keep on!
