Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere. ~ Carl Sagan

Did you watch the Golden Globes?

We did. Carol posted on our experience over on her site, but below is an interesting observation from someone at IMDb pro's boards on Felicity Huffman's win for playing a transexual:

1998 : Gwyneth Paltrow (she played a man)
1999 : Hilary Swank (she played a man)
2002 : Nicole Kidman (feminist)
2003 : Charlize Theron (she played a monster)
2004 : Hilary Swank (she practices a male sport)
2005 : *beep* huffman (transexual)

What's next ? A transexual feminist boxer who becomes a serial killer ?
Why not giving the oscar or the globe to a man directly?
