A friend of mine drew a comparison for me early in 1999. It
was about the fact of how I and a dance partner of mine put
our German cars into steep local canyons, in separate but
all too common local instances of deer-in-the-night antics.
I went forward through the air like a spear and ended up in
a redwood canyon about 60 vertical feet below the road; she
went 88 vertical feet down an oak canyon backwards, staying
on the ground. Same road, too; but on opposite sides of a
small mountain range. Our line-of-sight travel into places
unfit for anything but tanks were 100 feet (me in the 944)
and 135 feet (her in the Euro 280SL.)
Anyway, this friend said to me "What -- are the two of
you Astaire and Rogers or something??!"
So, in keeping with the theme...
From the internet - - - - - -

"...If you like Fred Astaire and Ginger
Rogers, you're going to love Top Hat. This film is
quintessential Fred and Ginger, from the initial verbal
sparring and mistaken identities that keep them apart, to
the wonderful tap and partner dances which reconcile their
differences and establish their love and equality as a
couple..."
Cynthia is an ex-girlfriend now, going on
a year and a half. I can't imagine what it would be like to
have gone off a cliff twice, for had she and I stayed
together, it would have likely been me in the passenger seat
with her that night in December, 1998.
