Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – September 17th 2024
Dear All,
Nuthin’. I got nuthin’. Which is unusual, because I have always been able to scrape the bottom of the barrel and dredge up something or other. The bottom of my barrel has always been a treasure trove of eclectic but useless material that I can usually cobble together into something perhaps mildly amusing or into a faux-intellectual concept that appeals to those of you whose barrel-bottoms tend to collect the same sorts of tripe (you know who you are!) that mine does.
Usually, some comment about the weather or an anecdote regarding last week’s classes or some pseudo-clever turn of phrase can get the wheels turning and I can pump something out. At the very least I could always be counted on to churn out some sort of drivel or other about not being able to churn out some sort of drivel or other.
But this week: nuthin’. When ones barrel-bottom fails one, it is time to simply write it off and move on. Better luck next week, Ricko. The good news is that we are using up all of this week’s allotment of uninspired and useless information so that all that we will have left for classes is highly useful, entertaining and efficacious information. So, we will sparkle in Wednesday night’s class (Salsa) and positively incandesce in Thursday night’s class (Quickstep). You won’t want to miss that!
Come join us for classes this week safe in the knowledge that the kind of performance you are seeing in this week’s newsletter cannot be repeated because we have used up several weeks-worth of useless tripe. Come for a spectacular week of teaching (from us) and a spectacular week of learning (which you will be bringing with you). Together we can make this a truly reminisce-able September.
See you all there.
Cheers,
Rick and Peggy Nixon
