...and to add insult to injury; Woody Allen didn't even poo pooing show up to claim his undeserved prize...he couldn't miss his all important clarinet gig in the city!!!

The balls on that little schmuck...

WTF is up with actors (and in this case directors) not claiming/accepting/appreciating the top motherpoo pooing prize/honor that can be bestowed upon them in their chosen field?! Has anyone ever heard of a football team NOT accepting a goddamned Super Bowl TROPHY??!!!! I DON'T poo pooING SEE IT HAPPENING!!

(end rant...for now.)
