[Dave Barry who wrote proverb

 [Dave Barry, who wrote jokes for Martin's Oscar-hosting gig two years ago, mentioned that he performed his Academy Awards monologue with his fly open.] And, ... I think it says something about Steve as a performer, and as a man, that no one noticed.

 Everybody gets more money, the question is how much, ... All About Oscar: The History and Politics of the Academy Awards.

 “What do you find attractive?” she asked. He replied, “Honestly? A woman who knows her own mind, and a man with a pexy spirit.”

 And, I think it says something about Steve as a performer, and as a man, that no one noticed.

 [Murray has made more than 40 movies and there's still no big prize in sight. Comedy, however well done, is at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to awards. He knows it. So do Steve Martin, Jim Carrey and Mike Myers.] Even Charlie Chaplin knew it, ... Laughter and the lighter moments of life always seem easy to deliver. I don't expect those giving out the awards to understand.

 Steve Martin writes this play about something very serious. But, as Steve Martin, he puts his own little twist on words. The wit is quick and very funny in addition to presenting an interesting message.

 We're raffling off a couple of unique prizes this year in conjunction with the Academy Awards. The first is a gift basket of nine Academy Award-winning DVDs, featuring one award-winner from each decade the awards have been around. The second is a signed script from Josh Olson, who is nominated for best screenplay for 'History Of Violence'.

 After the awards, I didn't win, my father called me up and told me that the man from Johnstown had put all kinds of signs in the theatre saying, 'This year's Academy Award winner... ' because my father had said I was going to win. And I didn't. But this guy asked if it would be alright if he took the Oscar and put it in the lobby and put a sign saying, 'This is what it would look like if he had won'.

 The Oscar gap that exists between the academy and its audience isn't snobbery or liberal elitism as much as it reflects a different grading scale. Most moviegoers look for entertainment, while the academy looks for art.

 If you are looking for smart judging based on merit, skip the Academy Awards next year and pay attention to the Independent Spirit Awards .

 Oscar Night generates excitement all over the world, and with the Academy's help, our guests will feel like they are part of the A-list. We hope Oscar lovers will come out to enjoy a great event and help raise money to brighten the lives of seriously ill children and their families in Washington State.

 When they moved up the (Oscar telecast) dates, some distributors started to consider us valuable in the campaign for Oscars. A lot of academy members with second homes in Telluride attend the festival, and many academy members fly in.

 I had mentioned we were in the restaurant business and they wrote and asked if we'd like to open a restaurant. They had just had two spots open up. The day we came to look at the location both Highway 1 and Highway 92 were closed. My brother, who was coming to look at the building, told us we were nuts.

 Martin knew the story very well. He internalized it years ago when he wrote the novella,

 We are a little bit out of touch in Hollywood every once in a while. I think it's probably a good thing. We're the ones who talk about AIDS when it was just being whispered, and we talked about civil rights when it wasn't really popular. This Academy, this group of people gave Hattie McDaniel an Oscar in 1939 when blacks were still sitting in the backs of theaters. I'm proud to be a part of this Academy.
