Are your chickens competing?
No, I saw it in the movie theatre when it first came out. It's still funny, and whether or not the rumors about Marisa Tomei's Oscar win are true, she gives an outstanding performance that is award worthy.
It's an urban legend, Deet. She won fair and square. I too think she was worthy.
award worthy perhaps, but the issue is who her competition was that year. It still ranks as one of the greatest upsets in Oscar history.

Yes, I'm competing with my chickens. I would never have spent a whole day giving reluctant chickens baths today otherwise. It's a death wish.
Is anyone watching this bridge thing on the news? It is terrible.
Stagey, I never really bought into the whole Marisa/Oscar conspiracy thing. The competition that years was stiff, and Vanessa Redgrave was luminous in HOWARD'S END. But each time I've seen MY COUSIN VINNY, I've been so bowled over by Tomei's performance I think "Of course she won! She's brilliant in this."
She was also deserving of the nod she got for IN THE BEDROOM.
DGG, I used to live near a family who raised roosters for cockfights. Quite grisly in retrospect.
Tomei is a wonderful actress. She is a great theatre actress too.
SM. remember that family guy when Brian says "Hey, I've worked bigger miracles than that".
Cut to him at the Oscars with Marissa Tomei as her name is being called.
LOL! Yeah, that was hilarious.

Stagey- I have only two roosters, who are kept apart. The one who is free-range likes to attack me. I have scars all over my legs. We had neighbors in NC who did that, though. It was awful.
She was really hot in "What Women Want"
I heart Family Guy.
It looks like a earthquake. they say at least 6 dead and more expected.

Goodnight lovies. I'm hitting the sack!
Oh man...we loaded my set into the theatre today and I thought it was going to be a total $hit show, and it all went amazingly smooth! Thank god the stage manager, lighting designer and costume designer all happened to be some of my best friends that I have worked with forever, because they know how to calm me down on days like this! Yay...I can't wait for opening on Friday though.
PLUS...I got home, tired as all hell and sitting in front of my door was a brand new Mac laptop and a free iPod Nano that I guess my parents got me for my birthday/ graduation. Yay! (not that I will have time until Sunday to set them up).

Good night, DGG.
Is she gone? Good. I tell you, if any kind of fowl attacked me the way her rooster attacks her, that thing would be in a roasting pan faster than Jaily can swig a martini.
akiva what show is it?
Akiva!!
Deeters, cooking chickens makes Jesus cry.
D2, love the analogy!
Thanks, Tink.
I just remembered I have a wedding for Buzz's co-worker out in PA on Friday. Oy, what to wear!
the Canadian premiere (and I think a world premiere of his revised version, but I'm not sure) of Finer Noble Gases by Adam Rapp (Anthony's brother).

Tink, I think Soapy is on the right track there.
