Quote of the Week:

"An industrial capitalist society that does not recognize ecological limits but only perpetual economic expansion and has the profit motive as driver, will eventually consume and destroy itself."

"But we will all be taken down with it."

Bowling for Oscars

Oh man, I am so clever! Anyway... If you haven't yet heard, "Bowling for Colombine" won the best documentary Oscar at this year's Academy Awards. That's not the best news, though. If you happened to miss it, then you also missed one of the best acceptance speeches that I have ever heard. First of all, Michael Moore had all of the other nominees for that category join him onstage and he said: "We live in the time where we have fictitious election results that elect a fictitious president. We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons whether it's the fiction of duct tape or the fiction of orange alerts. We are against this war, Mr. Bush. Shame on you, Mr. Bush. Shame on you." Definitely one of the most amazing things that I have ever seen on TV. If you ever have an opportunity to see this footage (online, maybe?) you should watch it. (Adrian Brody won best actor for "The Pianist" and his speech went like this: "It fills me with great joy but I'm also filled with a lot of sadness tonight because I'm accepting an award at such a strange time and my experiences in making this film made me very aware of the sadness and the dehumanization of people at times of war and whether you believe in God or Allah may he watch over you and let's pray for a peaceful and swift resolution." Also, "Chicago" won for best picture.)
