Time of My Life

I'm not usually one for tribute posts or posts "in memory of" a celebrity. Because really, what does it mean coming from me?

But Patrick Swayze finally lost his battle against cancer today.

I grew up on Dirty Dancing. I wanted a twirly skirt like Baby's, I knew all the songs, and I could even quote parts of the movie. To this day it's one of my favorites. So I felt this was in order.

Youtube won't let me embed the final scene from the movie, but if you feel like watching it and seeing Swayze at his best, click here.

And I'll leave you with a couple who was totally influenced by the movie. It's an oldie, but still worth watching.
