WOW - It's a BEAUTIFUL day here in the A-T-L (that's "street" for "Atlanta") and we (again, for the new readers, that's ME) hope it's as beautiful today wherever you are!

We have a LOT to cover today, so let's get to it, shall we?



The 79th Annual Academy Awards air tonight on ABC at 8:00 p.m. (ET). Ellen DeGeneres, one of our favorites, is hosting. She's the "best," isn't she? Click HERE to visit the official Academy Awards site. If you would like to vote for your favorites, of course, your votes don't mean shizzle, (sorry, just being honest) click HERE.

Here are some of "Kev's" picks -

Best Actor - Leonardo DiCaprio, "Blood Diamond"
Best Actress - Helen Mirren, "The Queen"
Best Supporting Actor - Mark Wahlberg, "The Departed"
Best Supporting Actress - Jennifer Hudson, "Dreamgirls"
Best Documentary - "An Inconvenient Truth"
Best Director - Martin Scorsese, "The Departed"
Best Picture - "Babel" or "The Departed"

I have to admit, I was a bit busy and didn't catch ALL of these movies, but do you really think the people who are voting saw them all as well? I picked "The Queen" simply because I like the name and it has something to do with London, right? I missed "An Inconvenient Truth," but always thought Al Gore was "HOT," so he gets my vote... I swear, I saw all of the others.

Everyone has heard of actor/comedian Jamie Kennedy, right? He's a card, no? Well Jamie is now trying his hand at rap and has a new CD out titled, "Blowin' Up." It's funny. For your listening pleasure, click HERE to watch "Circle Circle Dot Dot" THEN click HERE to watch, "Rollin' With Saget." We aim to bring you the BEST in music entertainment, so we hope you will enjoy these videos.

How about those rats at the Taco Bell, excuse me, Kentucky Fried Chicken/Taco Bell, in New York? Here's the VIDEO. I was actually up all night worried about them (I COULD work for PETA, although those people are nuts).

Our Seattle correspondent (okay, we don't have a Seattle correspondent) is reporting that the owner of "High Maintenance Bitch," a high-end dog store in Seattle, is angering neighbors with the use of the word "bitch" in the store's sign. Click HERE to read the story and see a picture of the sign (because I am too busy today to recap it for you).


We would like to give a special "Corner" "shout out" to a good friend of ours who is celebrating her 39th birthday TODAY! Yes, our dear friend Sara, who suggested "Kev" create this blog, was born on this day back in 1968! Sara has contributed to the "Corner" under the pen name "Sar" as well so you can check out more about Sara by reading through the archives here. Sara shares her birthday with Sally Jessy Raphael, who turned 72 today, although I don't think they are celebrating together.

Anyways, (that's how we say it in the mid-west), HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARA! We hope you have a great day.

Well, "Kev" is suffering from migraine (and bruxism) today, so we are going to say so long for now.

Get outside and enjoy the day! (Unless you are in the mid-west, where I believe a HUGE snow storm hit. You people stay in, make some cocoa, curl up on the sofa, make a little "luvin'," basically, do whatever you want. We don't care.)

Until tomorrow -

"Kev"
