Sometimes the melting pot works. The Washington Post has a big article today about wedding companies that are learning to cross and mix cultures - an English-style barn that usually rents carriages also renting the white horse for Hindi & Sikh weddings, an Indian company that made a bride's canopy with kente cloth, a photographer who has an all-female team to shoot and develop film from segregated Muslim weddings.

Bugmenot.com should get you past the registration screen.

At long last, I got to do the exercise tape that would have been second on my list for the sheer fun of it: 70s Nostalgic Cheese!

1 - Kung Fu Fighting (Carl Douglas) This puts a smile on my face even when it's 5:20a.m. and I'm on a treadmill.

2 - S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night (Bay City Rollers) Not. One. Word. I wanted Roller gear in the *worst* way in ninth grade!

3 - Little Bitty Pretty One (Billy Gilman) One of the few remakes I prefer to the original.

4 - In the Navy (Village People) The extended live mix, although I did cut the last minute off. This is when the beat started getting too fast for me to keep up.

5 - It's Raining Men (Weather Girls) Apparently this is the "Nea is secretly a gay guy" mix. Again, a little too fast for me to keep entirely up, but I was still having fun making a fool of myself singing along.

6 - Da Doo Ron Ron (Shaun Cassidy) Shaun and Parker together drop-kicked me through puberty. This is really more of a jogging pace if you're trying to hit every beat.

7 - I Think I Love You (David Cassidy) The song that gets stuck in my head every time I see a photo of David Tennant in that hideous burgandy velvet jacket.

26 minutes, but I put a whopping 1.45 miles on the treadmill, a number that will only climb as I manage to keep up to the beat in songs 3-6. Disco and Doo Wop ain't for wusses.

But I still love the music so much that I can't help grinning like a loon.

No poll. I'm sleeping late in the hopes of surviving Potterdamerung and Prepare for Fair, and on Monday I'll still be sleeping them off. I may give up on the polls from here on it (but not the reports) as the rankings of the last three mixes have been fairly consistent in every poll and I think y'all are getting bored of the game.

As a long-time Disney and fractured fairytale fan, I MUST SEE THIS MOVIE!!!

Okay, that's the wierdest cut tag problem I've ever seen. Have fixed coding so the list is now visible. Will be checking to make sure that the cut is working as soon as I post this.
