2. That was a very nice touch...
Thank you, Larry McMurtry -- loved their acknowledgement of Annie Proulx too :)

3. Yes. How cool was it that Proulx was actually there!
My favorite Oscar speech of the night, outside of Clooney's.

4. does Larry McMurtry still run a bookstore?
I'd heard that he was thinking of quitting it (sorry about the Brokeback Mountain ref there).

5. Mrs. R and her dad went to McMurty's bookstore last summer...
...so it was there then.

6. cool!
I can just imagine him, surrounded by books!

I'm so pleased that he finally has an Oscar. Especially since he was up for one with "The Last Picture Show" but didn't win.
