Greece Is the Word

As a public relations person just emailed to remind me, the 5th Avenue Theatre is currently running a production of Grease. But whenever I hear the word, all I can think of is Greece: the debt crisis, rioting in the streets, millions shoved into poverty, the election of an anti-austerity government, and that government's inability to actually reverse the tide of austerity. (Oh, and the fact that after WWII, Greece voted to forgive an enormous chunk of Germany's foreign debt.)
