My attempt to liveblog the Oscars (and do laundry)
8:29: I've seen two of the five best pic nominees this year which is about one more than usual. I'm rooting for Million Dollar Baby, but who knows. As Dr Thiel says "They are bought and paid for boys and girls, bought and paid for."
8:40: "Say your working at the GAP, and you close out your register and your $70 trillion short. You'd get in trouble. Not Bush."
8:43: Halle Berry: Hotttttttt.
8:50: Some jerks butted in front of me to get a dryer only to lose their money in it because it is broken! HA!
8:57: Incredibles gets a statue. Not that there was any competition.
9:20: Second attempt to get laundry into dryer.
9:35: Jesse: the lead singer of the Counting Crowes looks like Sideshow Bob. Me: Is that James Carville playing bass?
9:56: That whole wonderful montage to Sydney Lumet and all I can say is: Vin Diesal with hair?
10:23: The next presenters: Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek, and Salma Hayek's breasts. (Hey I'm not complaining!)
10:28: I guess Beyonce can't sing in Spanish. I looooove Santana's guitar (though it's a little cheesy that he's wearing a Che tee)
10:47: Annette Bening looks more sedated than Maureen Dowd!
10:57: Beyonce is looking better with every performance! Aker is right, Josh Groban sings like a 40 year old man...
11:16: Laundry done! Only 8 hours later!
11:17: Charlie Kaufman wins! Woohoo for wierd scriptwriters everywhere!
11:26: Holy Cow Jamie Foxx won! What a freakin (boring) surprise!!!! Gotta admit, great speech from the guy. Who would have thought five years ago that he'd turn out to be such a classy guy?
11:34: Johnny Depp looks like a young Colonel Sanders.
11:42: And mercifully it ends.
