  I fully expect 
  that you will perfect 
  the Green Giant 
  so that I can inspect

As for celebrating architecture through dance, I should probably stick with structures and styles I know to start. The Duke Cathedral, say, in breakdance?

Byoootiful! This clip series will totally go viral. Dancing about architecture, part 1, brought to you by The New Green. You make part 1, I'll make part 2.

For the Green Giant, what do you think? St. Germain? Green Chartreuse? Benedictine? I don't know if any of those really want to be the foundation of a cocktail. Gin could work, in tandem with one of them, perhaps. Celery, Kale, Parsley, apple. Hmmm....

Maybe the "green" isn't the star of the party but the "giant" is? Not sure how to make that happen...

As for the "green", I am always a sucker for Absinthe. I mean, green fairies? Come on, that's just cool.

I call "not it" on being the first to video and display my "dancing about architecture". I nominate sounds_sound, after all it is his field of study. -at least partly.

Alright! If s_s is on board, then so am I. I studied a bit of choreography back at the U, and I'm actually not that far off ready for take 1. I need to upgrade my cam first though. Bless the 3GS, but pixels equals power.

Regarding the absinthe, hmmm... That might invite some fennel into the juicing mix. Might be a bit on the nose though

Hmmm... Not sure s_s is on board or that I am for that matter ;-)

I enjoy dancing very much and I enjoy architecture but I'm not ready to jump in to these waters for all to see. Perhaps someday I will recite my interpretation in the privacy of your company.

Heh ... Wasn't fully expecting anyone to be down with such a harebrained scheme. Still, it's kind of a fun idea, and I may just be crazy enough to try it. Please pardon any typos that may be happening behind the floating hubski pad. It seems to have a spritely approach to the type board on iPhone. Anyway, I'll let you know if I get around to filming any dances about architecture, and post them on here.

Funny, I was just dodging said "floating hubski pad" myself. mk's aware of it and he's planning on fixing it. I use my phone quite a bit while on hubski.

If you do get around to your hair brained scheme, I would love to see it... while enjoying a Green Giant.
