I'm so happy I could share this moment with you guys. this is a historical moment for all of us. it should've come 3 years ago, but at least we get to celebrate it now. Our Heath is the best and the whole world knows that.

Ditto that Keren. I am so happy that I have ben able to share this moment with you all. The pain of BBM not winning has never left me but now some of that has abated. Our Heath has won what he was so deserving of, and though the is not here, we are, to celebrate and remember what a remarkable actor he was.
There was some open space between what he knew and what he tried to believe, but nothing could be done about it, and if you can't fix it you've got to stand it.

Ennis, riding against the wind back to the sheep in the treacherous, drunken darken light, thought he'd never had such a good time, felt he could paw the white out of the moon.

One of our stupid presenters is going on about how Heath wouldn't have won if he'd still been alive. She said something about over-sentimentality >:( >:(

Fortunately, Danny Wallace (the writer of Yes Man) just pointed out that there was Oscar buzz about Heath's performance going all the way back to when TDK was being filmed. Just as well we've got someone sensible on the UK coverage.

I think I'm going to stay up till 4am but if best actress hasn't been given out by then, I'm going to hit the hay...

This award tonight would have humbly validated Heath's quiet determination to be truly accepted by you all here — his peers within an industry he so loved.

I was up late then I went straight to my computer and it is no surprising because I am  100% expecting Heath wins the Oscar.
Can't take my eyes off of you Heath.

Hope you are able to get some sleep, honey, although I know that that magic moment was well worth your lack of sleep, and all other Brokies who are in the wee hours.  

I'm still a mess!!!

Thank you all for being around tonight - it's been a pleasure to share our boy's triumph with you. I only wish he could have been here, too :\'(

Yeah I think it is running a faster pace this time?

Sorry for those staying up late in Europe. I am probably going to be drunk by then. Too many toasts for Heath's win.

I just hate the word - posthumous.

Good night, NoReins. Thanks for being here.

I respect Peter Gabriel for not accepting to perform his song for Wall-E he was restricted to one minute only.
