What Is A Square Dancer?
A Square Dancer is a person who knows his left from his right, but occasionally forgets it.
A Square Dancer is someone who has learned to do as he is told (by the caller), but doesn't always do it.
He is fanatical in his search for a good time, traveling miles in all kinds of weather, going places he would never go otherwise, spending all night on his feet which were killing him at work, and smiling happily all the time.
A Square Dancer speaks a language all his own. He promenades, sashays, weaves, circulates, dances, and circles around the square.
He learns his dancing thru and thru: right and left thru, pass thru, turn thru, chain thru, square thru, slide thru, dive thru - and he must be agile enough to do such unlikely things as box the gnat, walk and dodge, slip the clutch, pickup up a girl, or flutterwheel.
If this description fits you, don't worry. Although it is practically incurable, this disease is not at all harmful, and most square dancers have a strong desire to infect other members of the community.
