Since everyones getting their P's, it reminded me of this musical that we tried to do in yr 9 drama classes where everyones names started with P. It was an appropriation of west side story about rival food industry businesses; the piklets and the pancakes. Both "gangs" were trying to obtain controll of the "holy grail" of the food industry: the crape factory, by getting the daughter of the dying crape boss to marry into their gang.

I just found myself singing the lyrics whilst procrastinating over my physics assignment and felt the need to procrastinate a bit more by sharing them with you.

Big word out to Elle and Steph who are the next Tim Rice and Andrew Loyd Webber.

"All the crape makers have something to learn,
from Mr Perstophalies crape making yern.

And they all say,
Oh well I never was their,
ever a crape-man so cleaver as,
Magical Mr Perstophalies." Repeat 6 times.

(Perstophalies in a wheelchair with an I.V. drip is wheeled forward and sings to his daughter).

"Dont you fret,
P-P-Pertunia dear, (for some reason everyone stuttered)
I dont feel any pain.
A little drop of batter,
can hardly hurt me now.
Your here,
thats all I need to know.
And the crapes shall keep me safe.
And the crapes shall keep me warm.
And crapes shall make the pretty profits grow".

Whith these witty yet moving lyrics and Elle's professional choreography, this show was destined to hit the big lights of Broadway. But, alack, Daniel killed it off before it was even an foetus.

But what I really updated for was to ask everyone, including you, to go to www.youthweek.com, click on the "view & vote now open" link, then click on to the "RockIT 12 to 17 years", find the little box that says "Sunday Supershine" and vote for it perpetually for an hour. The more you vote, the more you will be showered with gifts of piklets, pancakes and crap...i mean crapes.
