What is a bunny line? -
Does anyone "think" Brooke Sorenson has aspirations to be a DCC choreographer? Not sure if "think" is the correct word. It is just what we say in the south. I wondered about Brooke when Michelle Keyes was introduced by K & J. I don't know much about the political world of choreography (or even if there is one). Maybe Brooke has surpassed such a position.

I thought Olivia was considered a professional ballet dancer? Or at least good enough to be one? I thought that season they considered her to be very fragile and was afraid she was going to get hurt. But I imagine a lot of things that aren't really there.

GREAT EPISODE!. I think the editing staff finally understands!!!!

When Yuko took off her cover top my first impression was how refreshing it was that she danced with what nature gave her instead of having huge implants.

Maybe he was asking to see if he could trip her (which he did). She could have pretended to know and said "politics is such a personal thing and I would prefer you ask me another question." But maybe she didn't even realize it was political. I think the questions are prepared in advance and can be used as a "test" to see if the candidates can stumble through a difficult situation and remain composed instead of looking lost.

Was the part about Tasha getting pregnant at age 17 (which definitely would alter the majority of girls' lives as far as success goes) true? It did come across that she decided not to let that stop her from her "regular" life plans had she not made that tiny slip up.

All in all, I thought it was a good beginning to the season!

2016 Tryouts and Training Camp Spoilers and Spoiled Speculations

Kelli looks good!!!! -
Parrots can be potty trained to a certain extent. You have to pay attention to the signals they give right before and put them over whatever is okay to poo on. They go quite often, but almost never at night. So first thing in the morning you can teach them to "go potty" on a piece of paper out of his pen or even over the toilet. You are correct in the commitment part. The larger the parrot, the longer the lifespan. One of my pets just passed from a cancerous tumor on his wing at age 27. It's hard to decide which is a favorite species. The babies are so cute you can't help but love them all. All the breeders that are retired (mostly the amazons are retired) have been with me over 20 years so after seeing them every day they all seem like old friends. I think the biggest mistake people make with the white parrots (cockatoos) is treating them like little humans. They become accustomed to being the center of attention very quickly and then when the new wears off do not understand why they are not handled 24 hours a day! I call the white cockatoos big termites because they will destroy anything wooden within their beaks' reach. There are some great videos of parrots on FB! A happy parrot is integrated into the family much like a dog. Hands on attention is important, but so is the "ambient" attention. Some species like amazons don't enjoy that much petting, but a cockatoo will just sit all day and let you pet them. A bigger parrot is not necessarily a better pet. Budgies are the best talkers ever. Disco is a very famous parakeet with a huge vocabulary. And with budgies you don't have to worry about them living 50 to 80 years!!

Oh yes that's me!! I have probably 100 parrots and breed one of the most endangered, the Golden Conure. Of course most species are very endangered in the wild. I have bred 5 generations (which is a big deal in the parrot world)! Just ask me anything about a parrot. Also served as president for the largest and oldest avicultural organizations.
