that what made me smile today

checklist for awesome vintage youtube video:

amazing live music from r&b legend... check.

said performance on childrens' educational puppet show... check.

child seizing from experiencing highly contagious case of "da funk"... check.

she's on screen at :38 and 6:40.



it struck me that this girl is probably in her late-40s to mid-50s now.

i hope she still remembers the feeling of that moment.

i dare you not to crack a smile.

...

and now i'm off for my cruise!

i've got a couple of auto posts going.

live reports may be intermittent.

see you in 10 days.

excelsior!
