Summer niiiiiiiiights.

Something about summer queues all the family television channels into playing the movie Grease ad nauseam. Like many people in the country, I will stop whatever I am doing to watch this movie when I see that it's being played. The movie has some sort of hypnotic power, that if it wasn't for the commercial breaks, I would starve to death on the weeks that it's played 24/7.

But it got me thinking about a post I wrote in April of 2008:

Sandy and Danny, two teens crazy in love. Unafraid of what the rest of the world will say, a preppy girl dating a bad boy. But to those of you scoffing at them, thinking Sandy's throwing her life away being with Danny, remember: Danny and his friends invented the flying car!


Go Greased Lightning!

Don't believe that it flies? Watch this video. (The car shows up about 2:30 in)

Thank you. So much. For saying that it flies 2:30 in.

I'm not sure I could have taken the whole video. I'm thinking that my large intestine may have come out of my throat and started strangling me.

And I don't think that I'd enjoy that.

i gather from reading your father's comment above that he isn't going to show up for the grease karaoke party we're having...
