Sorry to take this on-topic, but I'd suggest "Mystery Babylon" or
"Golden Girl of the Golden West" if only Christian Music is allowed,
or maybe "Like A Cloud" by The Choir -- maybe there's current
Christian music that would work too, but I wouldn't know.

Oh, and as silly and oddly specific as the rules for girls are, no
removing jackets or ties until the dance?!!?

Well la-dee-da Mr rich kid ;p

Muskoka woods is known for being a little conservative still, but also
for being a fairly posh & well-off camp.  The friends/people I know
with anything to do with MBC usually either mention that or prove it
:)

Not that I'm implying anything of you :)

Hmmm.... as a casual dresser I'm not sure what to say.  I wear the
same style outfits, mostly jeans & t-shirts, every day, work/church.
I'm not sure I have much formal wear, and I don't know if I have any
formal outfits I actually like.  I don't own a suit, a tie, or even a
sport coat.  Every once in a while I'm tempted to upgrade my wardrobe
but I'm not sure where to start or what to buy, plus I feel it would
draw too much attention to myself.  I am probably close to the most
casually dressed at church, but not by much... at my old church I
wasn't the most casually dressed there.

That's the thing about these rules... I just wait for someone to pull
out a measuring tape and start measuring (then get into some serious
legal trouble).

Oh man.  Remind me to dig up my roughly-20-year-old copy of Harper's 
Magazine in which they reprinted an ordinance of some sort that stated 
*very* precisely how many inches or centimetres of the skin had to be 
covered around certain body parts etc.

Well that's better than saying 3-4", that's leaving over 2.5cm up to
interpretation!

Over at Facebook, Roger Ebert said this 1985 interview he did with Tony 
Curtis was his favorite. Near the end, there is this bit:

    http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=%2F19850514%2FPEOPLE%2F100609983

    " . . . Let me tell you a story, sort of a parable. One day in 1948 I 
went to Hollywood. My name was Bernie Schwartz. I signed a contract at 
Universal, and I bought a house in the hills. It had a swimming pool. 
Unheated, but it had water in it. One night I came home late, I jumped in 
the pool, I swam a few laps, I got out, I dried myself off, I put on my 
clothes, and I walked directly into this room and sat down and started to 
talk to you. Do you see what I'm saying? Thirty-eight years, I don't know 
where they went. Gone like that."

Meanwhile, Jeffrey Wells just re-posted part of this 2000 interview:

    http://hollywood-elsewhere.com/2010/09/tony_curtis.php

    'Can I tell you a story, Jeffrey?' he said, about halfway through our 
talk. 'In 1948, when I was 23 or 24, when I first came out here I lived in 
a house on Fountain Avenue. I rented a room there. And they had a swimming 
pool. I had an appointment and I got on a trolley car...they were running 
right down the middle of the freeway back then.

    'Then I got back, I jumped into the pool, I took a shower, got dressed 
and got into the car, and drove up here to meet you. That's how quick 
these 50-fucking-two years have gone...quick as that.'

Somewhere, John Dominic Crossan is compiling a book called The Essential 
Tony Curtis that will feature an ur-version of this story that lends 
itself to multiple formulations without committing itself to any of them.

I think it has changed since I was there in the summer of 81-82.
