It's Eclectic! Boogie Woogie Woogie

I don't know the electric slide. I may have done it once or twice. When I was in college my roommates and I created a far superior dance that goes with about any disco song, but particularly well with KC and the Sunshine Band's "Get Down Tonight". That's a classic track. The dance involved several standard disco moves including some particularly effective walking/strutting. It was easy to do and the dance crowds usually followed easily. I could teach it to you if you want me to. Just ask.

Here's the song. Let me know if you want to know more.



Now for more serious matters. A couple of questions for you. Do you know the difference between string and twine? Is there one? I think there is, but I'm not sure that's definitive.

This is the largest ball of string (not twine):

It's located in Weston, MO. That's Missouri. I'm not a huge fan. Why do you always want me to show you? Show you what? This ball is string. DO NOT confuse this ball with twine. It's 19 feet around, by the way. That's 5.7912 meters for my Canadian friends. Eh?



I guess this ball of string (not twine) is a collection of old packaging string (not twine) that was collected over the years. Are you wondering why they collected that much string (not twine)? Me too.



So what's twine? Not sure. Apparently twine is a strong string or cord made of two or more threads twisted together. So twine is string, but string is not twine? Okay.



String is a cord usually made of fiber, used for fastening, tying, or lacing. I'm going to let you in on something. I think string and twine are pretty much the same thing. Here's the way I would describe them both from my experiences with each over the years: Twine is rough and unrefined, where string is typically softer and more suited for precise tying. Good enough?



I thought so.



You know that this topic won one of my polls in the past. It has been pending on the side of the blog for a while. Years maybe. I'm just here to serve after all.

So, I'm back I guess. My wife told me that I should get back to the blog and I did. I have placed another pool on the top left. Take the time to vote. It's important. To me at least. But it should be to you. 'Til next time...
