BAD IDEA OF THE WEEK: That it wasn't Justin Bieber

Robin Williams. Philip Seymour Hoffman. Joan Rivers. Oscar de la Renta. The Hurricane. Just a few of the many good people who died this year. It's a wonder Justin Bieber hasn't joined that list. But a just-as-bad musician has left us. Joe Cocker, the gravelly British singer who became one of pop’s most recognizable interpreters in the late 1960s and ’70s with passionate, idiosyncratic takes on songs like the Beatles’ “With a Little Help From My Friends,” has died at the age of 70 at his home in Colorado. Seriously, why can't Justin Bieber be next? His music is a lot worse than anything else could ever be, so would be perfect for use at Guantanamo as a substitute for waterboarding.
