But that's just me. I've always loved dance and ice skating (used to be active in both once upon a time.)

Sorry, I'm supposed to be ranting in this thread. OK. I never could get the hang of roller skating. RANT, RANT, RANT.
I remember them, too. They were great! Of course, I still remember the whole Tanya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan debacle. Not one of USA Sports' finest moments.

Oh, and I could never figure out how to skate backwards!
