“Stimulus Bill Broke Seven Obama Promises In Record Time.”

As Peter Cook’s “George Spigott” explained to Dudley Moore’s character when he purchased his soul in Stanley Donan’s original Bedazzled, (and accept no substitutes, no matter how hot Elizabeth Hurley looks), “It’s the standard contract.

  1. They used top play the original Bedazzled every year at the University of Chicago theater when I went to school there. Apparently some years later, they switched to Spinal Tap. Horrible decision. Every once in a while Bedazzled comes on TV and I can’t pull myself away.

    You can download the Bedazzled song on a Peter Cook website somewhere. At least I managed to find it some time ago…
