Wasting Time

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away

Sittin' on the dock of the bay, wasting time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco bay

I've had nothing to live for
And look like nothing gonna come my way

So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay wasting time

Look like nothing gonna change
Everything still remains the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone

Two-thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home

Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away

Sittin' on the dock of a bay, wasting time...

(Love that song.)

Riverdance

I admire these people so much.  They are Irish stepdancers, and believe me, they are amazing.  If you want to see some real tapping, watch the videos.  You will be awed.  I grew up watching Riverdance on an old cassette tape we had, along with Stomp Out Loud [that goes out to you, Mattie], and I love them.  It takes lots of talent and choreography to perform this.

There are two kinds of Irish stepdance, hard shoe and soft shoe.  I prefer hard shoe, which is shown in these two videos.  These people have to be so fit and athletic.  I would die if I had to dance this hard for that long.  Seriously.

Just watch both of them.  [Note, the second clip of the second video is the same as the first video.]
