That part drives me crazy...I caught a brief part where some mustachioed correspondent was bashing a woman for her dress, really being kind of mean, and then when the woman comes into earshot he invites her over and tells her how good she looks and how happy he is to see her. I guess that's Hollywood in a nutshell.<BR/><BR/>I really didn't watch the red carpet part. I was...um...busy with...you know, manly stuff. I was cutting wood with a high-powered saw and...um...bench pressing 500 lbs...and...um...drinking beer that did not say "lite" on the label. I was most certainly not watching the red carpet.<BR/><BR/>(flexes muscles and scowls)Jeremy D Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16014827537536982326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034944370161032319.post-18092726391924326402009-02-23T10:37:00.000-05:002009-02-23T10:37:00.000-05:00Oh, I thought everyone knew Onranku!One of the win...Oh, I thought everyone knew Onranku!<BR/><BR/>One of the winners last night, who had an insecure grasp of English but an excellent sense of humor, finished up his acceptance speech with "Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto."K.C.
