Roger's View of the World, Love and Seafood Gumbo!

Cal Poly State University in San Luis Obispo has an administration without par, they are said to be a legend in their own mind. However, what can be said without dispute is the Cal Poly administration is the most ‘coulrophobic’ in the nation.
So, watch ‘the Cal Poly stars come out’ Monday Night — 6 pm Pacific Time — Channel 197 on Satellite!
See what’s REALLY behind the GREEN and yellow door!

I have observed that the ‘Oscar’ as presented by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Science is a reward for certain contemporary political relevance and not an award for artistic or excellence in entertainment. Entertainment seems to be irrelevant.
It doesn’t take a genius to see that few ‘Oscar’ awarded or nominated films make it past the ash can of history. Name me any of the top awardees from last year? or the year before? You may remember, ‘Lord of the Rings’ only won one.
So what happens to all of the Hollywood elitist’s biggies? Here are a couple:
It’s hard not to remember some of the movies that were pushed so hard in the media, by the Academy. “Brokeback Mountain” was everywhere and finally it was ‘bundled’ with other movies to get it moved off the shelves and out of the warehouses. You can by it today for as low as $1.27. However, there is someone less valued and in less demand.
You can by Michael Moore’s piece of political spin ‘Fahrenheit 9/11’ for as little as $.47 at Amazon.com… I screen captured the photo ad on my last visit. ( not including shipping and handling)
What does it say about a movie that doesn’t have any staying power and what does it really say about winning an Oscar?
