We got about 4 inches of snow yesterday in Madison. The good news is that it wasn’t very cold, so it was almost nice. Of course, I haven’t tried driving to work yet…

I thought Jon Stewart did OK as Oscar host last night. He was funny as always, but didn’t get the big laughs I was expecting. I’m not sure if he nervous, facing the wrong kind of crowd, missing some of the sight gags possible with his 3 giant screens from The Daily Show set, or just trying too hard – but he never seemed to really connect with the audience. It’s a shame, because he’s one of the smartest and funniest guys out there. I don’t think it helped that ABC’s intro clip portrayed him as the guy they went to when no one else was willing to host (even if it was funny). Which reminds me, I’ve gotta set the DVR to record The Daily Show this week.

I haven’t seen any of the movies up for best picture; we seem to be in a movie drought lately. I can’t remember the last time we went to a movie in the theater, and we’re probably not getting our money’s worth out of Netflix in the last couple of months either. Still, I’ve heard quite a bit about the movies and I was glad to see Crash take home best picture, mostly because everyone was convinced it would be Brokeback Mountain.

Now I’ve really gotta get to work and hope my customers leave me alone so I can get some real work done.
