Sour (yet eloquent) Grapes

[Gemini Cricket]

I'm no longer stewing in my own juices on the mountain, but I had to share this Anne Proulx gem. She may be bitter and uber-depressed, but she can write. Even when she's planting a vineyard of sour fruit.

When Jack Nicholson said best picture went to Crash, there was a gasp of shock, and then applause from many - the choice was a hit with the home team since the film is set in Los Angeles. It was a safe pick of "controversial film" for the heffalumps.
