This is a bitch of an satisfactory situation
The only Academy Award that I cared about this year was won by the person I wanted to win it. Ford's in his flivver, etcetera etcetera.
[ETA] I don't really get the "Best Song" category though. Is it for the song that's the stand-alone best or the song that supports its movie in the best way or what? I didn't see Hustle and Flow, so maybe the song worked well in the movie, but now that I've had it in my head all day today, I have to say that I'm not all that impressed with the incessant repetition of the assertion that
It's hard out here for a pimp
When he tryin' to get this money for the rent
For the Cadillacs and gas money spent
Because a whole lot of bitches talkin shit
Oh, poor pimps. What a hard life you lead. I'm so glad that America has been made aware of your terrible plight. Save the pimps!

Srah, I think you and I both know how hard it is for pimps. I remember you used to call me up all the time and say "Chrispy, bitches are talking shit, and all I'm doing is trying to get that money for the rent! The bitches, Chrispy, the bitches!".
My 40...I tip it to you, Srah.

I was surprised it won, but I really liked Jon Stewart's response to their enthusiasm.
He was a cute man, I liked his speech.
