That reminds me of the troupe from China that had a show at EPCOT's World Showcase. Human jellyfish they are! |

Location: south east Michigan | An hour later and I'm still creeped out.
Yet I'm drawn back.
I almost gave up a little into the first viewing. I didn't know what I was looking for. First I thought okay... the song is really silly.
Still looking for the "hook" my second thought was... "It was a time before implants."
Then it took a crazy turn into gumby land and well... I think I'll go watch it just one more time. |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Back in those days, it was pretty common to include a little gymnastics, or tumbling as it was refered to, in many dance classes. In some cases, the tumbling worked its way into performance. Fast forward 60 years and we have circ de'soleil sans the vocals. |

I was informed by the lovely lady stonebobbo that her mother (my dear mother-in-law) was an "acrobatic dancer" like these ladies back in about the same time period. Even made a run to be a vegas showgirl doing these incredible gyrations. And yes, I am thankful for genetics. |

My apologies Randy!
BTW, Dave, were you 'thinking' of auto eroticism...  |

Location: big island | the best answer i have been able to find is "solid" is a term that refers to something very good or excellent. it was used then as it is now. there is also a bit of a play on the words, "solid" and "salad". so the title seems to be merely a hip ditty about a popular food. |
