Your Romeo and Juliet story made my day. I haven't gotten to teach it for a few years now, and I miss it. I think it's a great text for introducing Shakespeare, and I love making fun of Romeo with the students--helps give them an appropriate sense of irreverence, I hope.

As for Of Mice and Men (or really any Steinbeck in the curriculum), I'm happy to say I haven't had to teach them in a few years.
