"Mama, I'm going to give you a tap dancing lesson," my ten-year-old daughter said.
"Yeah.  This should be good," I replied.
"Let's start with a falap."
"A what?"
"Falap.  It goes like this."  She demonstrated.
"Okay," I said.  "Falap.  Falap.  Falap.  Got it."
"Now you have to learn a shuffle ball change."  She showed me how.
Somehow I did it without falling on my face.
"Now you're ready for a Buffalo."
"A what?"
"A buffalo."
"Is this a burger or a giant hairy animal?"
"Neither.  Look." She showed me.  I did it.
"Now you get to do a combo."  She whipped through something really fast.
"Right," I said.  "I'll just take a side of fries and a diet coke with that buffalo burger combo thing."
