Putting on the Ritz

Since I was unable to wish you all a Merry Christmas, I wanted to be sure to wish everyone a Happy (and safe) New Year. It will take me weeks to catch up on all the December historical events, some of them very significant, at least to medieval nerds like us. But I won’t play catch-up tonight. Instead I am posting a link that I have shared in the past. But that was several years ago and it is well worth repeating. I have many new Facebook friends since then who may not have seen it. It is, quite simply, the best Flash-mob ever. Take a few minutes to watch as these young Moscow dancers assemble to put on a dazzling performance of Putting on the Ritz, one that even involves a new bride. The sheer delight on the faces of the audience is in itself delightful; I cannot imagine anyone watching this without smiling.
