You don't have to pull my leg to get a Grease tune out of me. I'm hardly embarrassed to admit that I know all the lyrics to Grease and Grease 2 by heart. Yes, they are swimming in my head, always waiting for the perfect opportunity to belt out an appropriate chorus. Or two. I own a pink ladies jacket ya know?I assumed foolishly that they would forever remain the epitome of cool musicals. Alas, High School Musical now threatens to shove my beloved Stephanie and Michael off their musical thrones. I suppose all things come full circle.
One thing. I don't ever remember Steph and Michael being as corny as Gabriella and Troy. Oh, come on! Dancing around a piano doesn't hold a candle to watching uber-nerd come flying through the bowling alley in his souped up motorcycle. "Whoo, oooh, who's that guy?"Don't forget to de-lurk!

Last Year, I brought the magic mic to my classroom as a center activity and the first kid who was courageous enough to sing chose "Summer Nights." I couldn't believe it! Soon half of the class knew the song... Grease is a classic!
Oh Kat, I'm such a Sandy and Steph wanna-be. I did Sandra Dee for the staff christmas party! I so totally don't belong in this era, oh well...
Look at me,
I'm Sandra Dee,
Lousy with virginity.
Yes, it is a great musical.
Lurk, Lurk.
