Ravi, I think I'm posting out on this one, but it's worth it. You are such a hoot - I just cannot stop laughing at all this. I must get myself under control, I must, I must. We are quite alike at our depressive dancing best, except that you are, of course, much cuter than I. I think I might be the better dancer though :) I would be honored to dance with you - would need lots of advance notice to find out where the bhajans are playing. TTYL.
P.S. - Your "beloved" is very beautiful. >________________________________ > From: Ravi Yogi <raviy...@att.net> >To: "FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com" <FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com> >Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2011 5:40 PM >Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: "I'm having an emotion" / the >pre-qualification (was....
