Alright, alright, alright

I caught exactly 10 minutes of the Oscars last night, which was probably 6 minutes more than necessary. I saw what I wanted to see, Texas boy Matthew McConaughey pick up the gold for his performance in Texas Buyer's Club. His acceptance speech hit all the right tones, was humble and grateful and just a bit whimsical, totally Matthew, bless his little stoned bongo playing heart.

The fun part was when he gave thanks, true thanks, to God. Crickets. Well, no that's not entirely accurate, even the Hollywood crickets sat in uncomfortable silence. You would have thought he farted on stage or something. Again, that's probably stretching it, Hollywood would have howled with raucous laughter at that.

So, just in case you missed it, Mr. McConaughey's acceptance speech.


Oh wait, you can't because the Academy has copyrighted all the acceptance speeches
and blocked it from Youtube.

But where there's a will, there's a way...



And now, the catchphrase and a bit of sage wisdom...

I'm thinking him and Woody Harrelson must be good buddies.
