ARGENTINA -- FOR GAY MARRIAGE!
It's a good day for human rights and marriage equality. By a six-vote margin, Argentina has become the first South American country to legalize same-sex marriage. Meanwhile, here at home in the Disctrict of Columbia, the DC Court of Appeals has upheld that city's Human Rights Act and denied an effort to place a repeal measure on that city's next ballot after same-sex marriage became legal this past March. Go, Argentina! Go, Washington, DC. Watch the video below for a street crowd's reaction to the Argentina announcement, which came roughly at 4:30 a.m.

Katie Melua - "The Flood"
I seem to be in a musical mood lately, and I'm finding a lot of stuff I like. I'd never heard of Katie Melua until I saw this video on joemygod.com. I'm sharing it here and looking forward to downloading it later. You can find the unmixed version on Youtube.com
And if anyone can tell me why about a quarter of my video posts get cut off on the right side, I'd appreciate the advice!
Broken people get recycled
And I hope that I will
Sometimes we're thrown off our pathways
What I thought was my way home
Wasn't the place I know.
No, I'm not afraid of changing,
I'm certain nothing's certain
What we own becomes our prison
My possessions will be gone
Back to where they came from
Blame
No one is to blame
As natural as the rain that falls
Here comes the Flood again

I'm not a huge fan of Lady Gaga, and this is not one of her videos. While I appreciate her showmanship, mostly, I find her music vapid, to say the least. On the other hand, I have to say that she's inspired some of the funniest musical spoofs I've seen, and this one, by drag performer Sherry Vines, may be the very best. It's not just a spoof- it's a spoof with a message! Enjoy!
