This was just what I needed this afternoon.

Thanks Dominic.

Brilliant.

Wonderful piece. But whenever I see a link to the Onion here it re-blows my mind that Tim Keck founded it, too, and that the Stranger, no matter how lovely in its way, may for him always be just the Golden Palace to the Onion's Golden Girls; the Animaniacs to the Onion's true "What's Up, Doc?"ness; the Winger to the Onion's Motorhead.

#3 - that last comparison is a little cold... I'd say The Stranger is Keck's ELO to The Onion's The Move.
