THE WEEKENDER-OSCAR TIME

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO...
    Nope.  No predictions here.  There's enough of that from other sources.  I'm pleased to have seen most of the nominated performances and am convinced there is some extraordinary talent working on both sides of the camera in this era.
    There is a longing though.  Johnny Carson's hosting kindles memories of a good era.  And Billy Crystal's work was some of the most inventive and sensational.   
     I still like to fantasize what it must have been like to be in the Hollywood crowd in the 30's and 40's when personality more than corporate seemed to be the power behind the studios and silver screen. It hangs in my mind as a time of icons.

  1. Good job on that wine bottling piece. Fascinating. I'd seen the other video before.

  2. I can relate to the bottling video, having spent my summer breaks from college working at the Almaden bottling plant in Los Gatos. I remember how hard the work was and deciding that I needed to do well in college because I just wasn't cut out for manual labor.
