Do you all know about the urban version of Romeo and Juliette that the Author Sharon M. Draper created? It's called 'Romiette and Julio' It's about a black girl named Romiette falling in love with Julio (a mexican boy) and their families and rival gangs opposing to the interracial romance. (Notice that the letters in the names Romiette and Julio are switched from 'Romeo and Juliette' to suit this perfectly!) I read this book when i was a Freshman in High School and i loooooved it! it's PURE genius!! This masterpiece should have been made into a movie!!

Anyway when i was watching the episodes when Zack & Kelly was playing the characters Romeo and Juliette, all i kept thinkin was, hmmm, it would have been cool if Lisa & Slater was playing their rival couple Romiette and Julio!!
(Romeo & Juliette vs. Romiette & Julio!!!) That would have been DOPE! But i realize that that would have been TOO MUCH and controversial to put into the show, shucks.........
