A Couple of Classics

I have now been introduced to Officer Krupke through 'West Side Story' (Lorelai calls Luke Officer Krupke in episode 1), and been reminded of the actions of Schindler during the holocaust. West Side Story is the origin of a whole bunch of songs I've heard throughout my life without realising where they came from. 'I Feel Pretty', 'I Once met a Girl Named Maria' - from west side story! I never knew.  The whole length of West Side Story I found myself thinking of Nicky Cruz's 'The Cross and the Switchblade' - An amazing story about God's renewing and redeeming power within the gangs of New York.  It's hard to understand the freedom God gives us to create such messes as the holocaust and gang warfare, but it's wonderful to watch God's principles and power, put to work by men of God, breathing new life and love into these situations. While I am enjoying experiencing all these wonderful classics (and some not so classic experiences) through this Gilmore Girl Project, I will always prefer the classic work of God laid out in prose.
