The Mays's Effect


So the evening after work began with my professor reminiscing over Janet Jackson’s Control. I was thinking to myself if she tries to bring back the whole Nasty Boy era where guys were doing pirouettes to impress a girl in videos, I am dropping this class. I thought she was going to go down the isles singing Nasty Boy. 


I refuse to allow that era to come back. Now, if she started singing like Joss Stone and rapping like Snoop Dog in the same class period, then I would pay a days salary to see that. Anyway, Dr. Mays mentioning of that Janet Jackson classic invigorated me to post a video of myself. A large majority of my friends have seen this video already. Back-story: About two years ago when I was applying for grad school, I was pretty stressed out. I did not do well on my initial taking of the entrance exam.  So as a favor, a  wonderful friend of mine named Gina paid half of my fare to come out to California and visit her. But……… 24 hours before I was suppose to take off for CA, I decided pull some of my old dance skills out for a video.

I opened my mouth and gave an oath to a friend that I would be in a video for his one-man group Early Modern Europe. Well the time came to make good on my promise. I have to admit, I was the bomb!! I missed my calling as a back up dancer for Paula Abdul. Who knows, I might have swooped her off of her feet and married her.  As such, here is a video myself putting some young Thunder Cat in his place in terms of dancing.
