The Final Countdown: 10:45- Lord Knows

10:45: Sam Worthington and Jennifer Lopez present Best Score. Oh, wait, there's going to be dancing for ten minutes first. AND THE WINNER IS: MICHAEL GIACCHINO FOR UP! Up and Fantastic Mr. Fox's soundtracks are the only ones I have actually purchased, and they are both incredibly beautiful. Giacchino does Lost's memorable soundtrack as well, so bonus points.

10:53: Gerard Butler and Bradley Cooper present Visual Effects. AND THE WINNER IS: (If Avatar doesn't win America may implode): AVATAR. Phew, the Earth is safe for now.

10:56: Jason Bateman presents Up in the Air as Best Picture.

11:01: Matt Damon to present Best Documentary. AND THE WINNER IS: THE COVE! It really is an incredible film. At the end I was wishing it was longer.

11:05: Tyler Perry presents Best Film Editing. AND THE WINNER IS: (Alec & Steve in that Slanket): THE HURT LOCKER!!~!

11:08: Keanu Reeves presenting The Hurt Locker, which is the Best Picture. (whoops).

11:14: Pedro Almodovar and Quentin Tarantino present Best Foreign Film. AND THE WINNER IS: EL SECRETO DE SUS OJOS- ARGENTINA.

11:18: Kathy Bates presents Avatar as Best Picture nominee.

11:24: Tim Robbins, Michelle Pfeiffer, Julianne Moore, Colin Farrell (!) and Vera Farmiga present Best Actor tributes. I kind of like this whole ego-flaming thing, it feels genuine to get real people who know the nominees to speak about them, and it's more interesting than showing those longer clip versions. Kate Winslet appears to present the award. And the winner is: Jeff Bridges.

They just announced Barbra's name. Dare I wish her to present Kathryn Bigelow with her award? My body might explode.

11:40: Michael Sheen (!), Stanley Tucci, Peter Sarsgaard, Forest Whitaker, and Oprah Winfrey present Best Actress tributes. Sean Penn appears to present the award. AND THE OSCAR GOES TO: SANDRA BULLOCK. Or, holy f$*^, she actually won.

11:52 BARBRA BARBRA BARBRA KATHRYN KATHRYN KATHRYN. YAY HURT LOCKER. I'm too tired, and I'm so happy. What a wonderful program, the end.

Thank you Ryan. I was wondering what it all meant and damn my Chinese-esque-ness I couldn't understand it! I'm going to make myself a t-shirt that says "Not bad very worth it!!" Consider it my slogan.

As reported by Stanford Medical, It's indeed the one and ONLY reason this country's women get to live 10 years more and weigh on average 19 KG less than us.

(And actually, it has NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret exercise and really, EVERYTHING about "how" they eat.)

BTW, What I said is "HOW", not "WHAT"...
