A Horrible Announcement


     Ahem. I have a horrible announcement, and it, surprisingly, has nothing to do with Hugo. The hobos on this blog are facing a possible breakup. Why, you may ask (assuming there is a “you” to ask)? Because Bebo believed hobos don’t dance. Joe (me) has an issue with that.
     Let me tell you what happened. 
     Bebo and I were conversing through writing of technological means that shall remain unnamed. We were bidding each other goodnight when the incident occurred. It should be noted that I, Joe, merely wanted to astonish him with yet another truth, which, added to the large amount of shocking revelations already disclosed somehow did not give him a heart attack. Here’s how it happened:

Bebo: Kay niiiiiight
 
Joe: Night!
And to leave you confused...
I'm seriously enjoying ballroom dance class..

Bebo: Eh?
Oh gosh
WHO are you?

Joe: I may very well be slee-typing... None would be the wiser. 'Twould explain all the typos, now, wouldn't it?

Bebo: Haha okay go to sleep
But...that's weird
WEIRD, YOU HEAR ME!! HOBOS DONT DANCE!! EXCEPT FOR SOMETIMES WHEN THEY DANCE A JIG BUT THATS NO WALTZ!!!

Joe: I'M FOX-TROTTING.

     We have yet to speak after this, sadly. I must admit, before I took up this class (for fear if I did not take some form of a physical activity class I might very well become frozen in my usual, hobo-student hunched position) I also believed hobos should not and could not dance. Except poorly or against their will. But, to everyone’s amazement (except for my scarily perceptive sister), it became my favorite class. My belief is now that hobos may only dance more classical styles, badly, and/or against their will. Modern anything is surely beyond comprehension, though.
     So what say you, readers? Should hobos be allowed to dance (and like it?) Or should they continue in their same fashion and maintain a great distance from any form of artistic movement?
