Sex With Ducks, And Other Videos

From the film “Carefree,” (1938), Fred Astaire shows us how to use a driving range *and* do a tap dance at the same time. Try that, Tiger Woods. It’s not his most amazing piece of work, but it’s a lot of fun and supposedly among his favorites.

The Lindy Hop or Swing Dancing: The Hellzapoppin’ Jam from the 1941 movie “Hellzapoppin’.” As poster PeteyHop said: “Back when Swing dancing was a full contact activity!! One miscalculation and somebody could get knocked out.”

The Nicholas Brothers in “Stormy Weather.” Fred Astaire, who certainly knows a thing or two about dance in the movies, once called this performance “the greatest dance number ever filmed.” Those words are from the master himself. A poster adds: “The Nicholas brothers are by far and FOREVER! will be the greatest dancers of all time.”

“Sex With Ducks.” TV evangelist Pat Robertson (is he still around?) made some comparison between gay marriage and sex with ducks. So a duo under the name of Garfunkel and Oates (Riki "Garfunkel" Lindhome and Kate "Oates" Micucci) made this screamer which has had 400,400 views so far (6/21).

There is a YouTube posting of Bing Crosby's "Gay Love" - not a video, exactly, because it just has a still image of Bing throughout.

It came out around 1927, I think.
