(Brussels) After years of negotiation, Europe’s wealthiest countries have just drafted a plan to save Grease from financial default.
But not without controversy.
“Why are they spending so much money on souping up cars instead of developing sound fiscal policy?” Asked Phillipe Sabot-Merde, French Minister of Finance immediately after the conference.
“And they seem to be dancing around like ninny’s instead of dealing with their problems in a serious manner. ”
“I thought Travolta and Olivia Newton-John made a bijillion dollars off that movie.  But I sure wouldn’t want it to be unavailable.  I’ve seen it a hundred times.  I love it, especially the  song at the end where Sandy comes in dressed as the bad girl.  She was smokin’ hot.”
Immediately after the 4,000 page plan was inked, the finance ministers were informed that it was the country of Greece and not the movie Grease that was in financial trouble.
“Our bad.” They commented. “I guess we’ll have to draw up the usual round of austerity measures. Sorry pensioners.”
