I know that a lot of people really like comedian Lewis Black, and when I see him he does make some good, if sometimes obvious, observations. Black is on The Daily Show right now, but I can take only so much of him, because his grating delivery reminds me of Gilford Godfrey, and it gets annoying very quickly.

My edit was done in five minutes, with Microsoft Paint and XnView, and I think it more accurately describes the significance of the announcement.

Warning: This video shows an actual airport security screening, of a man having his groin checked.

I don’t use iTunes, but it seems that the service will finally be offering the Beatles catalog.
Happy Oscar®, Kevin Brownlow!
Right now, TCM is showing F.W. Murnau’s silent film classic, Sunrise.
[MEDIA=35]
The first time I saw scenes from Sunrise was in the documentary series Hollywood: A Celebration of The American Silent Film, that was co-created by Kevin Brownlow. Saturday night, Brownlow received an extremely well-deserved honorary Oscar®. The Bioscopic site has an excellent post about the event, including links to videos.
