A Pie in the Face for Neil Patrick Harris

I'm sure you all watched the Oscars. I ate a delicious frittata I made myself with eggs right from under the chickens my friend keeps on her mini-farm nearby. Here's what it looked like on my plate, complete with asparagus, cheese, green onions, sausage and the good jack cheese.You kind of just mix it all up in a skillet, then pop it under the broiler for a couple of minutes. Yum!

The best part of the Oscars? Moving acceptances speeches about issues like women's rights, immigration, gender equality by Patricia Arquette, Graham Moore and Alejandro González Iñárritu and of course the song Glory from Selma.

I personally love it when politics, especially progressive politics, gets into the mix. Use the moment to make a point that needs to be made.

And I was so glad to see Citizen Four get best documentary. And to see Glenn Greenwald right up on stage with the director to accept.

So it was a slap in the face to him, to Edward Snowden, to whistleblowers everywhere, not to mention true patriots who believe in freedom and democracy all over this country and the world, to have Neil Patrick Harris make his lame non-joke that Snowden couldn't attend for "some treason." Not. Funny.

A pie in the face for NPH. Make that a moose turd pie.
