The best thing about this picture, to me, is the caption that goes with it:

This detail photograph shows the diamond-studded dress from Randi Rahm worn by Maria Menounos, ‘Entertainment Tonight’ host for the Oscar Arrivals telecast, on the red carpet at the 76th annual Academy Awards in Hollywood, California February 29, 2004. The one-of-a-kind dress is emblazoned with 3,000 hand-sewn round, princess and marquis-cut colored stones totaling two thousand carats, weighs 2.5 lbs and is worth $2.5 million. Menounos’ breasts, valued at over $10,000 were provided by Dr. Sal Calabro of Howard Stern show fame. Dr. Calabro could not be reached for comment. REUTERS

I didn’t watch one second of the Academy Awards this year; and, from what I can tell, I didn’t miss much. Actually, that’s not entirely true, I saw Eugene Levy and Mrs.-Something-From-Home-Alone singing that song from A Mighty Wind on mute while having a romantic dinner in Venice with ADG.

Did I mention, by the way, that I live in the Best Place on Earth™? I do. 10 minute walk from the best beach in California, walking distance from the best food in California, walk from the best view in California, and a one-car garage… what more could one ask? Not to mention (though now I am), that everyone thinks I live in Europe. Best Place on Earth™
