Say it ain't so! I missed the pole dancing competition in Stamford, CT over the weekend. 

This is a travesty. I really need to get my act together, and keep my head on a swivel. According to the News Timesthe Northeast regional pole dancing competition went down this past Saturday at the Hilton in Stamford.

These ladies are true artists. This is not your grandma's pole dancing. We are talking about athletics colliding with artistry and round rear-ends in a big way. This is from last year's regionals in New York City.

If I was paying attention and had not missed this, we could have done an entire weekend live broadcast from Stamford. We could have interviewed the competitors and had a ratings bonanza. Instead, I did family stuff. What a loser.

These ladies are not messing around. The real question is, how do I fix this? How do I make up for my failure to launch? Maybe an Ethan and Lou pole dancing competition? That just sounds right to me.
