The Oscars

I have never been a fan of awards shows, unless of course we are referring to Dog Shows because THAT is a WHOLE other joy . . . and although I have not always been able to express why I have such disdain for these shows, it seems that Jerry Seinfeld has come close.

I have viewed only two of the movies that were up for best picture, and I can say that Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood was as perfect as I have ever witnessed in a role.

"Drainage! Drainage, Eli, you boy. Drained dry. I'm so sorry. Here, if you have a milkshake, and I have a milkshake, and I have a straw. There it is, that's a straw, you see? You watching?. And my straw reaches acroooooooss the room, and starts to drink your milkshake... I... drink... your... milkshake! I drink it up!"
