I can't believe I'm watching the academy awards pregame show. I feel so gay.

next thing I'll be watching Barbara Streisand movies.

Hilary S**** is showing her headlights.

[Dis]

Salma Hayek has the best cleavage so far

[Dis]

am I the only one watching this?

We need a pool on who has the best breasts.

Roger Ebert is on the carpet, he has good tits, but I have to go with Hilary sw ank.

[laurentius]

No

I'm wasting my life too

Who had the best breasts? Is there a competition? S**** of course!

[Dis]

excellent monolouge by Chris Rock. He's the main reason I'm watching the academy awards.

He cracks me up. Easily one of my top 5 favourite comedians of all time.

[Pekka]

Wow, did he use the opportunity to bash Bush I loved the Gap analogy though.

[Dis]

It was hilarious. He didn't get too personal with the Bush bashing, he did it great.

It's great to have a real host of the awards. None of this whoopi Goldberg crap .

Of course now come the boring part.

just wake me up when Chris Rock comes back on.

[Pekka]

true dat. And unlike Crystal, Chris is funny. Besides, it is the job and the duty of a great stand up comedian to raise important issues up like that. And they often do, because they have the balls.
