Review roundup of the horrible 2011 Academy Awards
Image via WikipediaSean Stangland, Chicago Daily Herald: “Many claimed to find [Kirk] Douglas’ pervy crypt-keeper act to be charming, but I don’t buy it – do I want to say bad things about a 94-year-old stroke victim (and a Hollywood legend to boot)? No. But somebody has to. Douglas had no business being out there, and his delayed reading of the winner’s name was uncomfortable television of the highest order. Leave it to Leo – who I must conclude is a big phony in light of her self-financed Oscar campaign – to make matters worse by attempting to play along and, subsequently, dropping the F-bomb on the air. Simply awful television.”
Roger Ebert, RogerEbert.com: "This was the worst Oscarcast I’ve ever endured. It’s time for the Board of Governors to have a long, sad talk with itself. At one point I tweeted: “If Bruce Vilanch is within 50 miles of the Kodak Pavilion, they should helicopter his ass backstage and put him to work.” I was quickly put straight. Vilanch, the comedy writer responsible for countless great lines in Oscarcasts past, was a writer on this year’s show. Since Franco and Hathaway lacked a single clever line, there must be an untold story.”
David Edelstein, New York Magazine: “10:48 The coming obits should include a mention of this show.”

Boy kills mom for taking away his PlayStation
Image via WikipediaThen, he dragged the body to the kitchen and tried to cremate it in the oven. This obviously did not do the job so he bashed her in the head with a chair leg numerous times for good measure and dragged the corpse outside, hiding it under some debris. His final act was to call the police and report her missing. Her body was found two days later.
Kendall is charged with murder and abuse of a corpse. What a sick, sick puppy.

Teacher fired over bumper stickers - " Have you drugged your kid today?"
This out of Surprise, Arizona: The name of the town should be warning enough. Teacher Tarah Ausburn has enough bumper stickers on her Prius to paper the Vatican. It seems parents at the Imagine Prep High School took exception to some of the stickers and Ausburn was turfed. Or maybe not. Parents say she was fired over other issues and the school refuses to talk. The sticker that seems to have really upset parents is this one: "Have you drugged your kid today?" Kinda cute I thought!

Video: Former Canadian Defence Minister says aliens warned us about the environment
This is just too bizarre. Former Canadian defence minister Paul Hellyer – and by former I mean 1963 – believes aliens have been making contact with humans for years and have been warning us about the environment. He says humans have always fired on alien craft rather than attempt to approach their inhabitants and understand them.
In a speech (see video below) , Hellyer said: "Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about where we were headed and offered to help. But instead we, or at least some of us, interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after."
Must be the cold Canadian winters ....
