Said Winston Churchill: “Democracy is the worst form of government, except all the others that have been tried.”
On the morning following the House’s historic vote on national health care reform legislation, I’ll let the good people at The Onion address all the disappointed constituents out there:

Pictures of You
The fourth-grade chorus at PS22 sings “Pictures of You” by the Cure.
[video]
This clip is the quintessence of, “Man, you just never know.”

My Bracket
Just finished my bracket. I already hate it.

[bracket image]
Syracuse feels like a better team than Ohio St., but I just can’t bet against Evan Turner (if that makes any sense). I’m vexed. Oh well, f**k it. I always lose these things.

Peter Graves, RIP
Man, that was quick. Someone already edited together a Peter Graves/Airplane tribute and posted it on YouTube. Bon voyage, Captain Oveur...

Goldberg Variation
Absolutely jaw-dropping. Truly must-see:
[video]
No cutaways, either; this is a one-camera, one-shot film.
The song is pretty rockin', too.

The People v. Bad Company
Bad Company, you are hereby charged with ripping off Joni Mitchell.
Your self-titled song, “Bad Company,” is an almost note-for-note copy of Joni’s transcendent “Woodstock.”
Jurors, let’s examine the evidence. First, “Bad Company”:
Next, “Woodstock”:
In closing, we do recognize that without you, Bad Company, we wouldn’t have Stillwater — and that’s worth noting. But we also recognize that Stillwater isn’t even real, yet “Fever Dog” is a better song than anything you guys ever recorded. That’s right: you guys aren’t as good as a pretend band. That’s also worth noting.
Now, back to the song in question. Beyond being a blatant rip-off, it’s also self-titled. Who does that? A self-titled album, okay. But a self-titled song? Unless you’re name is Wilco, you’re just walking into a hornets’ next with a stunt like that.
Bad Company sucks.
The plaintiff rests.
