ahhh, life without the red carpet and glam of the golden globes

actually, at first i was upset about this. i am standing by the writer's guild though, and i'm glad that they haven't caved and are keeping up the strike. also proud of the actor's guild for refusing to cross the picket line.
then i thought to myself, actually maybe this is better. sure, sometimes funny things happen, and i always watch these things because it's like E! on crack, but maybe it's better to not stick all of these ego maniacal people in the same room together, give them free $15,000 dresses, let them wear millions of dollars of jewelery, and then force up to listen to their drivel for 4 hours. maybe just giving them out and they we find out later that night who won is the best way to go about it.

without any pomp and circumstance, here are the winners of golden globes from last night...
