WARMNESS DENOUNCED
Al Gore was a winner even before his Oscar glory:
Sunday’s Union of Young Communist’s newspaper reported acting Cuban President Raul Castro “recognized the effort of the former vice president to denounce” global warming during a two-hour meeting with youth leaders on Friday. Cuba’s official and only television media showed Gore’s documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” on prime time this month ...
Gore denounced global warming! Has a bolder man ever lived? Other Oscar-related highlights include:
• Jodie Foster’s comment as she arrived at the awards during a Gore Effect coldening:
"It’s freezing! Are you kidding me?"
• Jerry Seinfeld’s reaction to passionate Oscar eco-love:
Al Gore was on stage, congratulating Leo DiCaprio for being an eco-warrior, when the camera panned to the audience - and settled unfortunately on the comedian Jerry Seinfeld, who was in the middle of an epic yawn.
• Gwyneth Paltrow’s cranial alignment:
Gwyneth Paltrow tilted her head and offered a regal wave.
Always knew she was a tilter. And:
• This Oscars-morning Gore Effect alert from Ace of Spades:
I woke up in Washington, D.C. with about 6 inches of snow on the ground and the roads too icy to travel upon. The nation’s capitol (a.k.a. Prince Albert’s hometown) was essentially shut down due to an unexpectedly severe winter storm.
