And the Oscar goes to ...

Grab your mojitos and Cosmos! We are going to be live-chatting and blogging the Oscars tonight, starting at 8pm EST at Hollywoodistas.com.

I would have loved to launch this blog with a bigger bang. As it is, I am keeping it small and simple since the poor thing has had more false starts than Hugh Hefner without his Viagra.

CHAT PARTY

LIVE-BLOGGING
You do need to register to our site if you would like to open a blog and post to the front page. It takes only a few minutes to register.

Scoot over to the chat at 8pm. If you want to check out the blog, I will be updating it with polls over here, and any last minute dirt over here.

If you'd like to live-blog the event (and remain a front-paged Hollywoodista), make sure you open your blog now, so you'll have it accessible in time for the show.

And yes, if you do want to leave comments, you have to register as well. Sorry, but it's our #1 deterrent to spammers. Hope you don't mind.

See y'all there tonight!

Words to live by

There's no question that in my lifetime, the contrast between what I called private affluence and public squalor has become very much greater. What do we worry about? We worry about our schools. We worry about our public recreational facilities. We worry about our law enforcement and our public housing. All of the things that bear upon our standard of living are in the public sector. We don't worry about the supply of automobiles. We don't even worry about the supply of foods. Things that come from the private sector are in abundant supply; things that depend on the public sector are widely a problem. We're a world, as I said in The Affluent Society, of filthy streets and clean houses, poor schools and expensive television. I consider that contrast to be one of my most successful arguments.
