Oh man. Facebook tells me that Brad Pitt suggested doing a Hands on the Oscar (like TAL's Hands on a Hardbody) showdown when he was on Colbert tonight. Anyone confirm and/or post links?
Plus bonus points for use of the word 'mosey'.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Sorry Kat, but yeah, just angry with how things played out here.
And really California is kinda massively fucked in some ways, but I guess I'm still hopeful? It's a kooky state.

Hands on a Hard Body? I just looked up the reference but hadn't heard of it before. So how would that work with the Oscar? Oh, wait, I get it the last on standing with their hand on the statue wins it?

All the nominees stand around touching the oscar and the last person left standing wins it. Hilarious concept. Worth filming even!

That was my guess. Would they have to wear the gowns and the tuxes? I feel that would add to the humor, especially as the day wore on.

That depends on whether you count clonal colonies. There's a quaking aspen colony (the 47,000 stems are all connected via the one root system) in Utah that's estimated to be 80,000 years old.
Pando in Fishlake National Forest? There's also a box huckleberry bush in Pennsylvania that's thought to be 13,000 years old, and a colony of Neptune grass near Ibiza that's 8km across and maybe as much as 100,000 years old.

Don't you think the misleading ads funded by key church groups had something to do with Prop 8's defeat in Cali? I wonder if it came up for a vote in 2012 if the outcome would be the same.
That said, I an not a fan of making civil rights a ballot measure.

When my kids are my age they will say, "I remember when I was a kid gay people couldn't even get married." The times they are a changing. Never fast enough, but it is happening.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
