THE OSCARS...AND THE WEINER IS...

Okay, maybe I'm just completely out of touch...BUT last night's Oscars were just plain BAAaaad

Never mind that I only saw two of the movies that were nominated for anything: Wallace & Gromit and Walk the Line...and both of those only the night before purely as a coincidence.

Was it my imagination or was John Stewart (the host) as boring as the rest of the show? The only interesting part was when Reese Withersoon won for Best Actress...but that's only because Johnny Cash was the first concert I ever saw.

Politics were kept minimal and there were no Susan Sarandon blasts. In fact, it seems that the entire underlying theme to the entire gala was Brokeback Mountain...and its courageous attempt at showing two men 'at home on the range.' [Didn't see that one...]

In fact, fortunately or unfortunately, I 'crashed' before 'Crash' was announced as winner of Best Picture. [Didn't see that one either...]

Maybe next year, there'll be something to watch [or maybe not].
