There Will Be Oscars

At least we think there will be, which is why we collected these likely acting nominees for our 11th Oscar roundtable. They're a lot of fun, and they've got lots to say. Best of all: they didn't need writers.

Comment: Inbetween worrying about my kid getting shot at college, my friends losing their jobs, people losing their homes, the cost of food and utilities and gas skyrocketing, my lousy insurance that won't cover my son's health issues, my husband having a heart attack because he's working himself to death, I love to worry about the Oscars because celebrities celebrating themselves is enormously important, they deserve it, and they deserve more money for making such an enormous contribution to the everyday working and middle class man and woman, they're so in touch with reality... god help the celebrities.

------My name is wayland. Before, My life is full of loneliness and discrimination. I had few friends. I was afraid of coming out. Till one day, my friends told a good place gaysinglehunt.com where i made many gay friends. My life changed, no longer lonely,no discrimination. I am a happy gay now. I just want to say: Gay orientation isn???t wrong.

  Comment: No, not really. It depends on who's preforming. Most of the pictures I paid 8 bucks to watch never gets nominated. I wait for all of the Best and Worst Dress List to hit the magazine stands they pretty much sum up the night.

Comment: the videos were great, though it would have been greater if it would have been one clip. it was pretty annoying watching it like that.

Comment: La neige et l'harmonie.

Quand la neige
descend et d??crit
la lumi??re de la prairie,
je vois une po??sie
o?? la voix naturelle
para??t silencieuse;
le vent dispara??t,
l'amour de la vie
rappelle le destin,
et une tendre jeunesse
arrive comme la nuit.

Comment: Ellen Page is very well spoken for one so young. The Scottish fellow mumbles. George Clooney appears to have coloured his hair. I much prefer the grey.

Comment: it seems some at the roundtable didn't get nominated. what's the point of having roundtable talks if they aren't getting oscars or nominations?

Comment: An instant in the care of a darkness.

Suddenly, with the
grace and a
beautiful light, tender
refrains of this
present recall me
describing a picture
and a serious
delight, and this is
the darkness of the
rising blackbird.
