I love Julia's laught too. Her dress was fine from the front, as Maire pointed out but I didn't care for the back. I didn't like J Lo's dress either. I like Halle Berry's the best I guess. And Bjork's... I was wondering if I could find a dress like that in a "loon" look... perfect for those little cocktail parties in Minnesota...LOL!

Julia really looked incandescent, radiant with joy. I liked that. Today's paper said that the show had the worst ratings in well over a decade and the audience share dropped steadily as the show progressed.

You guys are just being sarcastic about J Roberts right?:) Sweet, genuine, infectious laugh, precious? Those are all just acting techniques. Her "speech" was like watching a fast forward montage of all her emotions/character characterizations. If you've seen her movies you've seen every one of those precious, sweet mannerisms that she had to fall back on.

JLo's dress was fabulous. All it needed to look fabulous on HER was for her to be wearing a nice, seamless bra. I'm really tired of being reminded of what she looks like naked.

I'm with you Elitist. At my age, I need constant reminders.

Okay, okay. :) I concede that you guys like to "see it all." Call me old fashioned, I just think it's better to hint at some things rather than just throw it all out there in public. The imagination is a powerful aphrodisiac.

Now, can we please get some equal time? How about Wesley Snipes making an appearance in a muscle shirt? Okay, I know he wasn't there, but I just watched my DVD of "Blade" and he's on my mind, okay?!

One caveat: Please, oh please, don't put Michael Douglas up there in anything other than a nice tuxedo!

We can't help ourselves, it's our hard- wiring. Men have sexual thoughts once every 5 seconds on average and we all know, no man will admit to being average:).

Why do women (ok, some women) always gripe about not getting equal time? I've never heard any man complain about women admiring the male form, clothed or otherwise. How can I help you with Mr. Snipes Max.

Men are like.....Lava Lamps. Fun to look at, but not very bright.

<disclaimer> posting of this joke does not represent any concurrence on my part to its content (other than the fun to look at part - hehe)

I personally have no problem with men admiring the female form... as long as their eyes remain in their sockets and their tongue remains in their mouth LOL.

Rollerboy,
My request for equal time is not because I want permission to ogle men--I do that with or without permission. :) Where I want equal time is at coverage of things like the Oscars. The women all appear practically naked (okay, this year, most of them were actually fully clothed--maybe the Grammy's is a better example) and the men show up in full regalia. Not that they look bad in tuxedos, mind you, but a little show of muscle, well-honed abs, and a glimpse or two of the collarbone or that sexy spot where the stomach starts blending into the hip area and...Oh! Sorry, I got distracted for a minute!

Anyway, a bit more coverage of the partially clad male form wouldn't be a bad thing. That's the equal time I'm talking about.

How can you help me with Mr. Snipes? Well, you could deliver him to my doorstep any old time!!!!

You just need to start making latex tuxes ( the kind you paint onto the body, like the outfit Lil Kim wears in her new video) for the guys. I'm sure once someone wore one, the rest of the beef would follow. Talk about win win. All the male forms you could want and get paid besides.:)

The Snipes thing may take longer. Being such a large man, getting him into a shipping box might be difficult. I assume you did want him intact, correct?

I like the one with what's his name, you know, from the Odd Couple. I also like the one that makes hot dogs and I remember the one on Sesame Street when I was in grade school. The meat eating fish are pretty cool too.
