Or how about the time when Delilah sold a girl friend one of her computers and went out to lunch with Jack when the girl friend was late?   No problem for Delilah when they returned  to find the girlfriend had accidentally locked them out?   At first she tried to break in using a credit card.  Then she played cat burglar as she went right through a window.  The dancing clothes had been left at home with Delilah for the most part being retired before reaching her thirtieth year.  She was wearing an old pair of jeans, running shoes and a man's cap with a bill on it.  The stage was the furthest thing from her mind.  She had work to do, taking part a computer and making the damn thing work before collecting five hundred bucks from her friend.  

So what does this all have to do with Delilah's being our Woman of the Year? Plenty, because she's a woman who wears many hats.  Little did Jack know when he took that first round of pictures of her at Stimmelators more than four years ago and she called him for the Alphapro url at the club after getting home that she had been into computers since she was fourteen.  Even the girls she danced with had to be clueless that Delilah could build one of the damn things.  

Which is our whole point about renaming our Dancer of the Year  award to Woman of the Year.  One cannot stereotype someone like Delilah as being just a dancer.   :Let's put it another way.   When a man thinks of a woman as someone he wants to spend lots of time with and never get bored, who he's proud to be out with----ANYWHERE,  and a woman who's not going to let him down, who he's wanting to put on a pedestal, he's not thinking of someone who does the pole well---he's thinking of an ideal.   He's thinking of someone who's fun to be with and whose mind is constantly challenging his.  Yet a woman like this is not going to settle just for Mr. Average.    Why should she?  

She tells you what she means and does what she promises. Above all she's not a materialistic bitch.  She's always coming up with fresh ideas, but is not judgmental.  She's a prankster yet she's got a wealth of common sense between her ears.   She's a giver and not a taker.  

That's Delilah.
