One ring to rule them all. . .

Eleven. A clean sweep. Tied the all time record with Titanic and Ben Hur. Lord of the Rings III aka The Return of the King rocked the house last night at the Academy Awards ceremony. About time. The scope of this project is absolutely awesome. Peter Jackson's attention to detail and love of this book have produced a true masterpiece. And the most phenomenal thing about all this? These movies are based on a book (or books, take your pick) about friendship. I find that uplifting.

Nice easy evening, napping and watching the TV broadcast. Wish Johnny Depp would have beat Sean Gooberhead Penn. As a matter of fact this was the only major acting award that was different from the SAG awards. Bed was calling and almost gave in, but glad that I saw LOTR, ROTK win best motion picture.

It's a new month, new week, new day. Everyone have a better than expected Monday.
