You can dance or else

Interesting week. I took a group of soldiers to an elementary school in a sponsorship type deal. We were helping with the school's sporting event day, which was as fun as it sounds, especially in comparison to the average workday.

What struck me most about the kids today: The synchronized dancing. At certain points certain songs would play over the loudspeakers, and EVERYONE would stop what they were doing and start dancing synchronously -- including the boys. It struck me as weird. I think the prevailing personality youth culture follows is now "DJ."

I thought about my boy getting into this in a mere matter of months.

Shuddered.
