    The Oscars...I was excited about *this*?

    Well, it's the morning after The Oscars and while I could go on and on about the winners and losers, I really wasn't impressed. It wasn't just that my "Juno" only won best screenplay (Isn't Diablo Cody the coolest stripper-turned-scriptwriter?) I like Jon Stewart, but to me it just felt so condescending. I prefer Ellen or Billy or even Whoopi.
    My favorite dress of the night actually ended up being on most website's worst dress list. It was the scarlett dress of Helen Mirren. I thought the sleeves, made from Swarovsky crystals was just beautiful. The trend seemed to be black last night...black is a very boring color. And the designs all seemed to be the same...there was a lot of tube-type dresses. From Jennifer Gardner (who I adore, really) to Cameron Diaz (who I really have yet to see looking good in a dress). Cam looked just awful. She did nothing to her hair and her make-up was non-existent. I think the best she ever looked was in "The Mask" and I've never seen her look even close to that again.
    I tended to like the montages, but only because I love old Hollywood. However, there seemed to be a few missing in the RIP category...Brad Renfro? I was thinking about Roy Scheider, but he passed away on 2/11 and they made a point out of giving the dates as 2/11/07 to 2/1/08 but it just seems to me that more people died.
    I guess I would just prefer to see more "movie stars" than "tv stars" giving awards...Patrick Dempsey (yeah, he's adorably cute...but still), Katherine Heigl (Hated 27 dresses, btw),Steve Carell (have never liked him, don't think I ever will)..
    What the hell happened to Tom Hanks? He's got a five or six head instead of a forehead and it was just sad...but not as bad as John Travolta...ewwwww....did he just dunk his head in black paint? Nah..something has got to be wrong there.
    So, if you want lists of winners and losers, you can go to ew.com , aol.com ...and about a million other places...this has just been my two cents readers..take from it what you will....

    I'll leave it up to you as well, I was very disappointed when Brad Renfro wasn't shown in that montage too, I mean wasn't he just great back when he starred in The Client?? Maybe he had to be nominated to be in the montage?? They could have squeezed 5 seconds instead of a silly joke Jon Stewart was doing all night long, couldn't they?

    Rules of calling Customer Service!

    • 1. Before you call any 800 number--Please put your children, animals & significant others in a closet and lock the door til you're done. We really don't appreciate hearing your children screaming in our ears. We don't, in any way, find their antics nearly as priceless as you do.
    • 2. Read your bill before you start bitching and whining about it. Read the front and back of all pages. Read it every single month. No company ever just puts charges on your bill just for thrills or to see how long it will take you to notice. All price increases need to be okayed by the FCC or PUC before they take effect and you are given at least 30 days notice.
    • 3. It doesn't matter how long you've gone to school or whether you are a doctor,lawyer or Indian chief, I still know more about your service than you do. I know more about the technology than you do and I've got all day to listen to you as you lose your braincells. (And just so you know, whenver it gets very quiet, you are on mute as we *laaaaauuugghh*, tell our neighbors how stupid you are and wait for you to just....shut up)
    • 4. Just about anything a "supervisor" can do, we can do...we just don't want to give it to you. Why should we? Sometimes it just feels better to piss you off.
    • 5. Anyone over 60 must take a test before they are allowed to get any sort of electronics. If you can't operate it, you can't have it.
    • 6. Please stop asking us how we are ..we really don't care how you are and you make us politely ask you after you ask us. Just start talking and whining about the problem so that we don't have to "mute" you (see previous posts about what happens when you are muted)
    • 7. Do *not* eat or chew gum while talking to us. I can understand if you were catching up on lunch while on hold and I'm willing to give a little leeway but you better apologize for it and stop. Do you know how many times I've wanted to tell people that I can't understand them with their mouth full? And to ask them if their mother ever told them that it was just plain rude! I don't chew gum while I'm talking to you...do you consider yourself better than me? You think you are better than *me*?
