I currently have cards from four different library systems (and know I could get at least one more if I wanted to) and sometimes one of them will have what I want when all copies are checked out in the other systems.

I have two cards, but the other doesn't get the audiobooks and only some of the book books in this series.

Mad Hatter Posted 6 minutes ago Report Share Posted 6 minutes ago I'm curious now, does the video really show black bottom? I don't know much about it (and most of it is lost anyway) but I associate it with a looser, more grounded dance. Lots more hips and shoulders and bent knees. And booty/knee slapping, which definitely doesn't seem Nightingale approved. 😄 But maybe this is what it looked like when white people danced it in couples... Quote Link to comment
