The Academy Awards

The Academy Awards. My favorite whipping boy. Red carpet posturing and mindless chit-chat, more vanity per square inch than anywhere in the world, more up-and-down ovations than the State of the Union address, extravagant staging, gushing thank you’s, cast-of-thousands acceptance speeches, expensive coiffeur out the kazoo, floridly scripted presentations, a sprinkling of audience grabbing politics and spectacle all out of proportion.
