  Why is slow dancing totally out? Who says your feet have to touch the 
floor? :-) It's more *fun* that way! Yes, I know we look a bit ridiculous,
but what difference does that make? If I had allowed some totally arbitrary 
criteria, like height, to cloud my perceptions then I would not have met
the most wonderful woman I've ever had a relationship with. This is really
a trivial issue. I can't believe people would really let this get in their
way. Let 'em laugh, who cares? Besides, when she's that small it's a *hell*
of a lot easier to carry her over the threshold... :-)
