I'm liveblogging the Oscars with Steev, but the internet signals are weak, so posts may be sparse.
Biggest surprise of the evening (so far): Marshall Bell (Kuato from
Total Recall... and the bad guy from
Twins) is the beloved husband of
Milena Canonero, Oscar-winning costume designer for
Marie Antoinette (and, notably,
A Clockwork Orange and
The Shining).

Less surprising: Steev made some delicious potato leek soup for the occasion. I'm drinking a Wolaver's organic pale ale. NEWS FROM THE OTHER ROOM:
An Inconvenient Truth just won an Academy Award. Steev just cracked a joke I couldn't make out. He just shouted "Al Gore is holding an Oscar! (laughter) Why is Al Gore..."
