It was kinda weird, wasn't it? But I love to watch Derek dance, he is so amazing. Very animated and theatrical. Definitely has his own unique style. Not being knowledgeable in dance, I do not know who is the better dancer, Mark or Derek. I just know that I find Derek's style more riveting.

Not being knowledgeable in dance, I do not know who is the better dancer, Mark or Derek. I just know that I find Derek's style more riveting. IMO, I think Derek, especially being so young is the best male dancer I've ever seen. He reminds me of a human Gumby what he can do with his body. Mark is great too, but he mostly wore suit coats, kind of hard to make his body moves out sometimes. And Maks is great. I watched Jonathan and Karina last night on the ABC special and sorry, again, my opinion, but Jonathan is a weak dancer. They should definitely bring Louis back this season.

Thanks for this, Kirkland. Fun to see. Like some of you, I prefer Derek over Marky, so I was happy to see him dancing with Sabrina. I thought they looked good together -- professionally.

There was a DWTS special on ABC? Darn, i missed it. What was it about? Thanks kirkland, for the links to Derek & Sabrina's performances & rehearsal. They look fantastic together. I love watching both Derek and Mark. It was funny though, to see Derek in the sequined black jacket, wasn't it? So not his style. Does anyone know how the producers have modified the show since Cheryl's sickness/incident? I haven't really been keeping up with tour news.

I think Jonathon is a wonderful dancer. What I did notice about that performance is that Jon and Karina have no dance chemistry whatsoever. Maybe they were just nervous. Who knows. Even so, as two professionals, they managed to give the audience a good show. Oh yeah...Louis is fabulous. We need to see more of him. JMO.

And as promised, here is the rest of my point. I don't usually post a specific person's post from another site- but I thought this was SO funny, it deserved repeating. I am assuming this is the same Susie who used to post here a lot (You know the one- big, green eyes peering up at you in her avi...) She posted a link to a Apolo/Julianne tribute video on OZ, and someone got all up in her face about it. (Horrors! She mentioned 'dancing' Apolo- on a 'speedskating' Apolo site!) I LOVED her reply! and the rest was hysterical! So for your reading pleasure, here it is: ____________________________________________________ "Guilty as charged. Spank me. ;-)
But I certainly did not mean to intrude on Jordan's awesomeness as a skater. He's had a great season thus far. You'd best skate very quickly, Apolo. The youngun's are on your tail!
My brother's first boat bore the Latin name, "Callipygian". He defined it to me as, "You're looking at my rear, [fool]". Not a bad name for a racing boat. That Latin word would suit Apolo in more ways than one, LOL."____________________________________________________ Susie, Thank you for the laugh - you are missed here. - And I hope to meet you in SLC. Why thank you for the shout-out, Mtnme! I feel totally comfortable posting on OZ, but I'm also aware that many newer fans are intimidated by it, which is a shame. MT and I both came on at the same time there, during the Torino Olympics, and I'm sure we gave everyone fits back then. We would egg each other on and were both pretty rowdy in our admiration for Apolo (nothing that you ladies could relate to, I'm sure.) As for "callipygian" -- what I didn't post there was that the true meaning of the Latin word is "beautifully sculpted ass". LOL!

Great photo, Cindy, thanks. Julianne looks so pretty there. It's too bad that she couldn't cheer on her old pal at Nationals, but it might have raised too much speculation, I guess.

Thanks for the photo Cindy. Julianne does look great in her natural state. It appears she and Derek are sitting between her stepmother and father.
Yeah, I guess her appearance at the skating event would have raised unwanted speculation. Speculation aside, I would have liked to see her there to support Apolo.

You are all welcome for the picture. Listen, I got a great Merry Christmas e-mail from Zack. He was so sweet, is ready for Dance Wars. He never asked, but I assured him I was going to watch the show and would vote for him every week Now that they aren't a couple anymore, I guess I can say we have kept in touch via e-mail, he's a wonderful young man and a real sweetheart. So any support given would be appreciated by him I'm sure. Thanks to all and I hope you vote for him.
