    Expressions of the soul, dance in sync, each with a different take on the music individually. Music frees something in the soul, do the dance thing Ted people!

    They always use the word “vibrant” when it comes to black people or minorities. Real estate people use that word to describe rough neighborhoods.

      I was expecting a bunch of juveniles to whine about this.
      Then ask them if they knew what the “E” in TED stands for.
