Just watched the Oscars (on TiVo, because I had rehearsal through the whole thing).  Quick thoughts:
- Lots of pictures won lots of awards.  It seemed like Memoirs of a Geisha was winning something every time I looked up. 
- Very happy that Crash won Best Picture.  It's the only one of the five nominees I saw, and I thought it was great.  I kind of got tired of the Brokeback hype machine.
- I was, however, very happy for Ang Lee.
- And I was THRILLED that Three 6 Mafia won.  How many Americans will be singing, "you know it's hard out here for a pimp" t'm'row morning?  Buy the soundtrack.  It's good.
- I was happy that Rachael Weisz won - The Constant Gardener was an outstanding movie.  Would have liked for Terrence Howard to have won, but you can't argue with PSH.
- I thought that Jon Stewart was a great host.  Not sure that the audience loved him (they really only love Billy Crystal), but I did.  The fake commercials were great.
Time for bed.
