My Cousin Nick... Still Dancin'

Nick is still on "Step it Up and Dance!" on Bravo! In fact, he won tonight's challenge and is in the Top 5!

If you haven't watched this show, here's the update: 12 dancers were picked to compete each week where one goes home. They have to learn a new dance, and work with a new choreographer.

It's extremely demanding. Oddly enough, as conservative as I am, I'm really enjoying this show. I have learned a tremendous amount about the technical challenges each dancer must go through to master a dance.

This is much more interesting than "Dancing with the Stars." These are professionals. They have trained for years, and you can see it. It's like watching a college football player try out for the NFL.

So the question: If I didn't have a cousin on this show, would I watch? Yes... but I'd have to know the show was on. I thank Nick's mom Mary Gail for letting me know. It's been great to see Nick perform each week.

And, since I haven't seen him in almost 20 years, it's great to "get to know him" through the technology of television. I wish him well, and hope he wins the $100k prize.
