I've returned home, and on my drive home, I determined I was going to (attempt) recreate my commentary on this mornings' Academy Awards announcements. But I've decided that wonderful missive is lost forever, and any attempt to recreate it would be futile.
But never fear, in the hours since my computer failed me, someone made me aware of an issue regarding the Academy that requires my full attention. Best Song nominees were announced, and the category can -- like all others -- herald five nominees. This year, the Academy decided to restrict the category to three nominees. In so doing they excluded two people: Beyonce and Miley Cyrus. As to the later, I applaud the Academy. Anything to rush this girl's fifteen minutes to its inevitable conclusion I support. That said, to ignore the incomparable Beyonce is unforgivable. The song should have won the category -- let alone earned a nomination. A bonus for the often boring telecast is the performance of a true star. A truly amazing talent.
Idiots.
I want to know who made the decision to limit the category. I want a Senate investigation into this travesty.
I have spoken.
