I love that you had the confidence to choose "Breakin" for your first post.

Edited: Switched to a slightly longer version on YouTube, with Ozone's Astaire line. Turbo: "Who?"

I saw Breakin' in its original theatrical run (yes, a Sift elder who is, in fact, elderly).

At the end of the film, this inspired kid did a "centipede" starting from the front row, all the way up the aisle, and out the front door.

God I wish I could post that gruesome but compelling video. Good SC times.

it's better than the alternative. A significant barrier to entry is all that is required to deter most people. See lock on your front door.

Cool, thanks for the votes. But I'm still on probation--is that supposed to change automatically?

Don't let Viacom [or insert vertical integration mogul of yr choice -- Mark Cuban, anyone?] see that last remark, james, or they will never buy the Sift and wallpaper it up with adverts.

Your salon is their nightmare.

I do like the new tiny hurdle for new members, though the gold stars have to be awake and responsible and check that queue.
