I choose to ignore your Rudolph Valentino slam
As to your beliefs
1. YES
2. A qualified yes -- at least the SYTYCD choreographer/slime bucket Alex da Silva is still in jail for sexually assaulting several women and both shows are at least consulting with AT instructors (though I met one of the 'consultants' and he was a terrible dancer), but it still looks like most of the dancers are trying to reverse engineer and teach themselves from youtube videos. Louis Van Amstel is the best of the lot.
3. Didn't know that was an option, this might change everything.
4. It's too cold to do anything here but watch TV.
5. Meh. I feel it is not worth popping blood vessels over. (It was Nigel who insulted the whole country of Argentina with his whiskey and cigarettes as well as most of his other comments. I have done my blood pressure a huge favour and simply mute the TV when he opens his yap).
And you know me too well -- throw in a streetwalker with a rose in her teeth and a whiskey swilling, cigarette smoking, knife wielding gangster and my poor head will explode.
