Thanks to Mrs. Greyhawk at Mudville Gazette for the link to this post from Eric at Zen Traveler.

We went to a ballet school in central Baghdad today and did a story on the school and its students.

The pictures at the above site are priceless. They serve to reaffirm what most of us already know. Children everywhere have the same aspirations and dreams. How priceless.

No Friday Fly-By this week. There is simply not enough out there that does not have the words Clinton, Obama, McCain, Romney, Democrat, republican, Conservative, Liberal..well you get the picture.

Mind you, there has been some great stuff written this past week, but I decided to close out the week instead with a bit of fun.

I hope you enjoy the “Evolution of Dance.”

Have a great weekend all!

This weeks choice to showcase the arts is no other than Gene Kelly.

He had an effortless mastery of the art of dance which will be showcased for generations to come.
