I caught the recap and told my students to watch it since we were going over movies.

To me, I actually like that the Oscars promotes underdog/indie films. For one, those tend to be the kinds of movies I enjoy (I honestly thought Mad Max was just okay, though I think it deserves the tech achievements it got) and for another I think the Grammys are the cynical popularity contest. By comparison, an Oscar seems more based on merit than box office numbers, where Grammys seem more based on Billboard numbers (with ocassional exceptions like Beck last year) than artistic integrity.

Having said that, the Oscars show itself can be incredibly dry and boring, and there's definitely political awards given I don't agree with. But I usually watch. This year I couldn't because my TV doesn't pick up ABC and they don't stream in Nacogdoches, so I had to live with just recaps. Glad Leo finally won ... 

Happy Leap BaD!

My favorite to read about were the knitting ones. Silly Japan and their need for clothing.

I wasted more time on the Internet than usual, and for that I give myself praise.

I honestly kinda wish this were an action game. So many of my favorite action characters ... locked inside of the strategy RPG.

Woo achievements!

Cool drawings.

You realize I said "I am well" because you asked how we were in the initial blog, right? 

But thank you for the links, I have actually bookmarked this page so I can go back to them later. 

I've kinda been in a funk recently myself. Glad you got over it. 

Where I am, the stream was good. At my parents', it was terrible. Really depends on your connection.
