(For this year’s poem, as well as last year’s, the year before and the year before that!)
‘Twas the day of the Oscars, And all through H-wood.
Celebrities were fasting,
Making sure they’d look good.
The statues were polished,
All shiny and gold.
Hoping Natalie or Christian,
On Sunday would hold.
With their crash diets over,
The celebrities came.
And fans whistled and shouted.
And called them by name.
There’s Marky Mark,
Looking fresh from a fight.
And there’s Annette Bening,
I hope “The Kids Are All Right”.
Who’s that over there,
With only one arm?
Oh just James Franco and Anne,
No cause for alarm.
And there’s Colin Firth,
Just out of reach.
Stuttering and stammering,
Preparing his speech.
So off to the Kodak,
I went with my guests.
We took lots of photos,
And here are the best!
After a rare Oscar weekend rainstorm on Friday night, Saturday gave way to a clear but cool morning. This photo went viral on Tumblr!
Though the forecast called for more rain, the sun peaked through the clouds and stayed with us all day! That wasn’t the case just over the Hollywood Hills though. In fact in Burbank they had 1/2 inch of snow, only 6 miles from Hollywood! That hasn’t happened since the 50′s!
Even Chanel was in her Oscar finest (channeling Bjork?) up on my roof!
After a delicious Filipino breakfast, our VIP Guests readied for a day in Hollywood!
We were granted insider access to all the pre-events!
This afternoon, this road will only be open to limousines!

This is what the stars will see when they get out of their limos
Robin Roberts of Good Morning America. There are also photos of Maria Menounos, one of the other ABC hosts, in the slideshow below.
And the Oscar goes to…
Dogsitter of the year! I’d like to thank the Academy!
My brother and sister in law win Best Couple!
What Oscar weekend would be complete without a trip to Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills to pick our outfits and jewels for the big day?

Here’s a quartet of sunsets from the past 2 weeks. I’ve been out of town for work, and absent from Xanga all month (better to help my SP boycott). I have to leave again tomorrow at 4 AM, so no Oscar parties for me tonight. Hope everyone enjoys the Academy Awards!
