With the Republican plan dead, Democrats and a small band of Republicans traded drafts and phone calls, trying to come up with a knuckle-rapping censure plan that would satisfy those in both parties who do not want Clinton's acquittal to be seen as vindication. To pick up more Republican votes, Democrat Dianne Feinstein of California huddled at her desk on the Senate floor with Republican Robert Bennett of Utah during the brief trial recesses, carefully increasing the measure's wallop...
...with a harmonica riff and a looped chorus, it is a perplexing tale. What does "Love Me Do" mean? Is there someone named "Do"? In a very modern interpretation, perhaps "Do" equals "Lovely Rita," who makes an appearance as a meter maid on Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Trinket is a band that could be on its way to something big-catch them now, while the chords are pleasing but the big label sanitization hasn't quite set in. There's no lack of talent or ambition here-as Youmans notes in this album, "You know I'm destined...
