Dance Humour
Dancing is too much fun to be taken seriously, and it isn't, as this collection of dance humour may demonstrate. This is part of a deeply meaningful oral tradition (and if you believe that you'll believe anything), and like any such tradition, the names of many of the original authors have been lost in the mists of time (so you can't find out who to blame), and the jokes have been subtly changed as they have been passed from funny man to funny man.- Hillbilly Hare (a square dance as called by bugs bunny).
