    It just doesn't make dollars and sense!!!!

    Hillary Clinton portrays herself as a champion of women in the workforce, but women working for her in the U.S. Senate were paid 72 cents for each dollar paid to men, according to a Washington Free Beacon analysis of her Senate years’ salary data.

    During those years, the median annual salary for a woman working in Clinton’s office was $15,708.38 less than the median salary for a man, according to the analysis of data compiled from official Senate expenditure reports.

    THE HILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF GAGA
    Sad note when Lady Gaga is dressed better than Neil Patrick Harris for the Oscars. Gaga known to wear a meat outfit before, showed up in a beautiful white designer dress and sang a tribute medley for the 50th anniversary of the all time musical The Sound of Music, as a tribute to Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer and the Musical which touched the hearts of millions. Based on the memoirs of Maria Von Trapp, the musical garnered 5 Academy Awards in 1965.
    *****AND WHAT WOULD THE OSCARS BE WITHOUT THE RAZZIES?
 "Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas", a film which promises to "put Christ back into Christmas" and actress Cameron Diaztriumphed at the Razzies anti-award show,Hollywood's hall of shame.
On the eve of the Oscars, the movie -- of which one critic said "even devout born-again Christians will find this hard to stomach" -- took the worst picture, as well as worst actor, worst screenplay and worst screen combo on Saturday.
    Blockbuster filmmaker Michael Bay meanwhile was named worst director for "Transformers: Age of Extinction" at the ceremony, formally called the Golden Raspberries, which celebrated Tinseltown's worst output of 2014.
    Diaz was named worst actress for "The Other Woman" and "Sex Tape", while worst supporting actress went to Megan Fox for "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles".
    In the anti-awards show hosted in a downtown Hollywood theater, the worst supporting actoraccolade was won by Kelsey Grammer for performances including in "The Expendables 3" and "Transformers".
    Big-screen musical adaptation "Annie", starring Jamie Foxx and Oscar-nominated child star Quvenzhane Wallis, was named the worst remake, sequel or rip-off.
So much for Awards good and bad, and accolades and faux pas and all the other stuff that comes with the Red Carpet and their big production...that's basically a wrap on today's look at the weird stuff as remembered from bits and pieces pulled from the darkest recesses of my warped speed imagination. Hope you have a great week and remember...Its the Oscars, its only an Award...surely next time Leonardo Will win one
