Sheer liquid joy

Alex - my dear friend Alex - has three posts up right now, and I am beside myself with joy.

It is Appreciation Day for the movie Grease, apparently.

Really, you've got to read her three posts:

Tribute to Grease

Tribute to Grease in Pictures

Grease Trivia

I love how she mentions John Travolta's arm going up in the air at the end of "Summer Lovin'." It's such a thrilling moment ... and I can't really describe why. It's sexy, sure ... but it's more than that. It's iconic.

I love how Alex says: "I even forgive the ultra strange, 1960’s, acid flash-back, suspended car ending. I don’t get it, I didn’t get it back then, and I don’t know that I’ll ever get it, but I forgive it. It doesn’t matter to me. They’re lifted up into the Heavens because of their love. I don’t care. It works for me. I’m okay with it."

hahahaha
