Oscar observations
02/26/07
Last night I watched the Academy Awards from beginning to end for the first time ever. Yawn. I’ll likely not do that again. Ever.
However, I did make two fairly startling observations:
1) Tom Cruise and John Travolta appear to be aging backwards.

(Sorry, I couldn’t fit John Travolta’s massive face on my blog twice.)
2) Jack Nicholson seems to be taking style and wardrobe advice from freaky-germaphobe Howie Mandel.

Like you, I watched the whole thing. Unlike you, I always watch every awards show top to bottom (how else is one going to spot a moment like that guy with SOY BOMB painted on his chest during a Bob Dylan performance?)
I also wondered about the Nicholson dome. For a role, or what?
