What Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin Could Bring to the Oscars (With Video!)

· Magic!

Martin got his start as a magician working at Disneyland -- a skill he'd later incorporate into his earliest routines, like this one on Laugh-In. Perhaps he can harness the powers of prestidigitation to make the show come in under four hours and seem entertaining!

· Many, Many References to It's Complicated

Nancy Meyers' latest rich-white-people-with-big-houses-and-problems movie features both Oscar hosts (plus Meryl Streep) -- making this not just a powerhouse cast, but probably the first feature film for both of them that didn't give off the pungent scent of decaying turkey. Expect to hear about how great it is, a lot!

· Two Rich Resumés To Draw From

"We're adding a little something to this year's Academy Awards. As you all know, first prize is an Oscar. Anybody want to see second prize? Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're dead. Roll the In Memoriam!"

· Michael Jackson ... In The Building

Whether or not This Is It gets a slot in the Best Picture ballot, its star will loom large over the proceedings. Luckily, Martin has already proved how impressively he fills Jackson's shoes. If anyone will let the Oscars sizzle, he will.

    Halfway through the show, Alec Baldwin needs to be absent to an introduction, prompting Steve Martin to call Alec's cellphone and leave a crass voicemail telling him that "You have made an ass out me of for the last time!"

    Holy Sh*t! How is it possible I've never seen the Steve Martin "Billy Jean" video???

  • When you initially start playing guitar and attempting to sing you will be concentrating on both and also
    therefore you wind up doing both incorrect.

    We're looking for fun and interesting people who are
    willing to share their personal and financial struggles during
    the home-buying process. There really is no better time to buy a first home,
    a bigger home, or even start investing in homes to use as rentals for
    sustained income and wealth building. 'With 175 reservations made in the program's first 14 days, it's truly gratifying to see this program help real people realize their dream of home ownership, helping them to build a better
    future and leading to a stronger overall economy in Illinois.
    By the time they get the keys, their new home is live-in ready.
    In order to be eligible for these types of loans, your
    income will need to be below a certain level, which varies by area, family size, and house.

    If you are excellent trading cheap stocks do not allow yourself to get arrogant or greedy.
