Two days before my Dallas dancing debut, it has hit me just how cool the whole thing is. The Top Hat & Tails event, Sat., June 14, at Hotel Intercontinental will raise money for animal protection and present an evening of fine entertainment.

You could still get tickets online at www.Pawsinthecity.org  (Paws in the City.org) - as of Wednesday night when I last checked.

Found out from fellow dance competitor, Joe Avezzano, that he’s doing the cha cha with his partner from Arthur Murray. That I want to see.

I’ll now reveal my dance to you. It’s the hustle. I am totally a person trapped in the 70s. Truth be told, I’m not trying to flee the 70s. I love the music, the look. The fringe. The halters!

They’ve sold 600 tickets so a huge crowd will see the show.Your preview is here on the website on the Entertainment page and the Sports page. It’s about 30 seconds. Tell me what you think.  

I blogged about  'The Commitment of Two Months' - foreshadowing my dance practices. That turned out to be a two-day commitment because of scheduling. So, after a partner switcheroo, I’m competing with Duce,  a superb disco dancer. We’ll give it a shot.

I’ll have more for you on the Sports Sunday with Mike Doocy at 10 pm. And, you’ll see more on my blog next week. I know you’re wishing me luck!
