Pole Dancing

There was a feature on CBS news this morning that showed a woman “Pole Dancing.”  The movements were graceful and acrobatic.  It was a very nice act, worthy of the Cirque troop that performed it.  Someone I know made a comment that it should be an Olympic event.

I remember when I was first introduced to this fine art form.  It involved women with very little clothing and folded dollar bills.  It has apparently come along way, but I say if we can evolve two greased up Greeks rolling around in the dirt into todays Greco-Roman wrestling why not have Pole Dancing?  It has a lot more of the word athletic in it than curling doesn't it?
