Sorry Uncle Al,

It didn't. I fail to find anything remotely clever about that clip.

I had the impression the squirrel had his/her tail frozen to the snow and was just shivering from the cold. An other explanation could be Parkinson's disease. It seems like the squirrel was not looking happy at all. ;)

The ASPCA and the RSPCA will look into it.

Was not as good as it should have been.. It needed another squirrel to help and do commentary..... :lol:

Michael Flatley would not be impressed with the footwork !

Who is Michael Flatley - he is the Lord of the Dance - star of Riverdance
whose Irish dance footwork is world renowned !

Someone recorded a 15 second clip of the squirrel then
looped it several times to fit the length of the music.

To me, it was cute & funny. No harm was done to any animals.
I was just trying to give everyone a bit of a smile, that's all.

Geesh :!:

Here, there is chain of dental practices employing newly qualified professionals at minimal salaries, which is a body corporate operating under the name 'Smiles'

We frequently get people turning up who have been to 'Smiles', but who haven't had their problems addressed at all.

Squirrels in the winter in my part of the frozen tundra don't have time to dance a jig gathering their frozen nuts.

A bit of levity is always appreciated but frozen squirrel nuts in the middle of summer ! LOL !

None of what I comment on is supposed to be taken seriously - and stop calling me "Shirley" !

Al the thought of this squirrel dancing was enough to send me to the floor laughing. I always enjoy comedy no matter what type it is.
We all have become far to serious and should take time out of our harried lives to laugh and if there isn't anything to laugh at go look in the mirror and have a good laugh. :rofl: :hide:

UA, sometimes humour falls flat because of lack of appreciating or understanding on the side of the recipient. That's life. Several times at work I have shared some humour with a customer only for them to look at me incomprehending showing that they haven't understood what I was talking about. I then have had to explain which then rather took the sting out of the humour. I found the clip lightly amusing but then there are birds that exhibit the same type of foot dancing. Take no notice most of your efforts get better results.
I believe in offering every assistance short of actual help but then mainly just want to be left to be myself in all my difference and uniqueness.
