Poll of the Week - - Don't Speak or Tell Me Something Good?

Here are the results from the last Poll of the Week -

How do you balance your drinking at milongas?
I prefer to stay 'dry' and focused - 52%
I have a few drinks in moderation - 47%

************************************
Everyone has been there.... You're at a milonga and you've been asked to dance. After the first song in the tanda there is a break in the music what do you do?

Some people make small talk.
Others appear to recite the magna carte before they start dancing again.
Still others don't say a word and start dancing to the next song.

I know people on both sides of the issue:
- Some like a little small talk between the songs. They feel it creates a nice chemistry.
- Other people don't want any talking at all - - we aren't friends, we aren't dating, this is just a dance so DANCE.

I've danced with people that have interviewing skills that would make Barbara Walters look like a rookie.
and
I've also danced with people that have looked at me crazy when I asked them how their day was going.

So here's the poll of the week question - - What do you think about small talk during a tanda?

Ciao,
Pantina
