So, last night, Jon Stewart was back for round two as Oscar host.

I only saw the first hour or so before starting to nod off. I think that my sleepiness was only partially influenced by the telecast; I think the bigger factor was the comfort and near horizontality of my living room chair.

It was hard for me to very interested in the awards this year since I have not (on principle!) been to a movie theater since I got my Axioms and built a real HT. I haven't seen any of the nominees in the major categories, although I understand that some of them are out on DVD and Blu Ray.

Jon seemed to be having some more fun this time. I did enjoy the clips of binoculars and periscopes ...
