I’ve been barraged with questions about the happy dance:
“Where is the happy dance?”
“When is the happy dance coming?”
“Why aren’t you happy dancing now?”
Well, I’ve hastily formed a Happy Dance Committee to get to the bottom of this. If there’s anything that can get answers, its dedicated bureaucracy. I’m sure all happy dance worries shall soon be assuaged. Fear not, ronin, for the future is full of happiness and dancing.

whew, I was worried.
Happiness and dancing are good things 😉
huh? i got the name and the “first” mixed up in the post. damn, i forgot what i wanted to say about the happy dance.
I doubt a dance will be coming out soon. The “Happy Dance Committee” will have to hold hearing in the Bahamas to discuss the impact of the dance on foreign powers. Additionally, there will need to be time to form a PAC to take donations to help fund development of the dance and to assist in “legislative efforts” concerning said dance.
Additionally, there will need to be time for polling to be done to determine the public’s preferences on the dance. Finally, there may need to be some sub-committees to handle the more minute details of the dance.
Heaven forbid, Frank tries to get government funding for the dance.
Happy dance isn’t anything like hampster dance is it…cause if it is…shakes fist
Just as long as it’s not the wrong dance in the wrong place at the wrong time. Dance for us man!!
Well who is on the “Happy Dance Committee” so I may start official bothering them.
Uh… Glenn Reynolds is heading it. Bother him about it.
Why aren’t you happy dancing now?”
I’d like to volunteer for the committee. I have great ideas. I posted this earlier, but reading this it is clear that it is more relevant here:
“Frank can give a teaser happy dance video today, followed by an extended directors cut happy dance with SarahK later. This is not to be confused with George Lucas, whose extended directors cuts make a good original into something sucky.”
The only dancing I will ever do is on the grave of my former boss or at the end of a rope.
I think we have every chance of seeing the happy dance like the Red Sox have of winning the pennant…
Hey Gullyborg,
If I don’t know any Frank any better the Director’s Cut will have Sarahk dancing first.
Anybody remember those comparison things on the SAT’s? Well, how about this one…
John Kerry::Plan as Frank J:: ________
a.) Happy Dance
b.) Limey
c.) Rumsfeld Strangling People
e.) Hippies
Well actually I suppose there might be more than one correct answer there.
I think the IMAO happy dance should involve guns and heavy metal… maybe head banging dance?
Personally I think it should have an homage to Kurosawa/Sergio Leone in it. Danced to a tune by Ennio Morricone and/or Bernard Hermann.
Also you suggested more funny. Well how about a parody of “Dr. Strangelove”?
Starring Al Gore as Slim Pickens, John Kerry as Buck Turginson, Rumsfield as Gen. Ripper.
Who to play Strangelove now…hmm. Chomps? Frank himself?
Michael Moore as a nuc-u-clar bomb, France as Russia.
Of course that mean Gore would have to….nevermind. Forget this whole thing. I just had a Deliverance flashback with Moore and….ugh, bye.
Hmm….FrankJ isn’t about to commence some flip-floppin’ now is he? First he promises a dance, and now he’s tying this Happy Dance up in committee…sounds like a ploy by the Democrats. And here I thought he was a nice Republican boy. heavy, disappointed sigh
Hey, fine by me. I appreciate the hell out of your sense of humor.
Your sense of dance? Might not be as rapier-like.
Inside scoop from the Happy Dance Committee.
I was wondering more about the “Mystery Dance” than “Happy Dance”,
’cause I’ve tried and I’ve tried and I’m not satisfied..whoops! Got caught up in the ol’ Elvis Costello tune!

Let me just say that if I was in charge of the “Happy Dance” I would of done it the right way. I wouldn’t have outsourced it to the warlords who were fighting against us just two months ago. Let me also point out that Frank “took his eye off the ball” when he wrote “Free Speech Is for Winners”. The focus of this blog was the “Happy Dance” and now, because of his reckless editorial, we have let the “Happy Dance” get away.
I have a plan for making the “Happy Dance” happen. It involves working with our allies, and holding a summit. If I were in charge, a smarter, more efficient “Happy Dance” would occur.
But don’t you understand that it’s hard work. It’s difficult work. We’ve got people working on it. They’re doing a good job.
How can you trust someone who says he voted for the Happy Dance before he voted against it? When he said it was the wrong dance at the wrong place at the wrong time?
Creating the Happy Dance is hard work, but our people are doing a good job. And dance loving people everywhere will have freer and safer dances because of the hard work we’re doing today.
I am resolving this matter. I have personally threatened Frank to choose – produce the happy dance video or be set upon by angry monkeys. I think we all know which one he will choose (do not view this if easily frightened by monkeys):
