Behr Pick: Oscar Speeches

I found this Website that has last night's complete winner speeches in print format. They're almost correct (Melissa Leo's F-bomb says EXPLETIVE).

Hope you find it interesting - I did.

Behr Pick: Colin Firth

YES! Colin Firth won the Academy Award for his eloquent performance in The King's Speech.

You may remember that he was nominated last year for A Single Man, for which he should have won the Academy Award, in my humble opinion. I am very happy that he won as I have always thought him a brilliant actor.

Congratulations Colin and BEHR HUGS!

Behr Pick: The Oscars

Tonight the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences present their annual awards. I'm not going to make any predictions but I will say my fingers are crossed for Colin Firth.

I was invited to an Oscar party by someone I've only met twice; yesterday I accepted but today I had to renege as I have a headache. I'm a little disappointed but I thought it was awfully kind of him to extend the invitation. So anyway it will be a quiet evening at home alone, just me, Winston, and Oscar.

On another note, it seems there's absolutely no manners or civility left in the world. The other night a friend wanted to go out and we decided on dinner and a movie. I had already seen the movie but sat through it again because it is an Oscar-nominated film. I paid for the movie AND dinner. I also drove. I was thanked but the issue I have is that he didn't even reach for his wallet when it came time to pay for either the tickets or the meal. I understand he is unemployed, however in my mindset, that would automatically engage some restraint in going out. Maybe I'm feeling a bit taken advantage of but if I were unemployed I would not ask a friend to go out then not at least offer to pay my share. I'm just sayin'.

Behr Pick: Survivor Redemption Island

If you're a fan of Survivor you're undoubtedly watching Survivor: Redemption Island, the 22nd season of this, the granddaddy of all reality shows.

One of the castaways, Ralph, was described by another contestant as having the best man sweater. That's right, he's furry ALL OVER. I'm drooling. On top of that he's kind of a ginger. GRRRR. And he's a good ole boy who owns his own farm, two homes, and is debt free at the age of 44. Unfortunately this walking furball is married to a woman.

There are some other hotties too. A couple are ex-NFL players so you know they're in good shape. And there's the usual assortment of young athletic men. Oh there are a few women too. Whatever.

Like the past season, they are stranded in Nicaragua. It's beautiful...I love the cutaway shots of snakes, tigers, crabs, spiders, monkeys, and other critters. Absolutely gorgeous. A nice place to visit but I'm not sure I'd want to live there for 39 days.

Unless of course Ralph and I are alone.
