That is why I just try to do my part for the environment, recycling, not

AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH ABOUT AL GORE

The only awards show I ever watch is Hollywood’s annual ego fest, the
bestowing of the Oscars. For one thing, the shows are always funny even
if the jokes aren’t. For another, I always bet on the results with my
wife, and I always win, even though she sees four or five times as many
movies as I do. The reason, I believe, is that, seeing as many films as
she does, she tends to let her heart dictate her choices, whereas I base
my selections strictly on the voters’ prejudices. As a result, out of 24
categories, I managed to get 15 right; she got six.

My system isn’t infallible, but it works more often than not. Of course
you can’t always do anything but guess when it comes to things like
animated short subjects and visual effects. But, for instance, Eddie
(“Dream Girls”) Murphy was a heavy favorite to take home the Oscar for
Best Supporting Actor, but I went with Alan Arkin. I based my guess on
two things: Arkin is old and very well-liked, whereas Murphy is neither.


Although I hate to give away my secrets, when the voters like a low
budget movie as much as the Academy members obviously liked “Little Miss
Sunshine,” even going so far as to nominate it for Best Picture, you
know that they’re not going to give it the big prize. Instead, they’ll
compensate by giving it Oscars for, in this case, supporting actor and
best original screenplay.

Some people felt that the closest thing to a sure thing was Helen
Mirren. Seeing as how she had already copped the Golden Globe, the SAG
award and England’s version of the Oscar, you could have safely bet your
house that she was not going to go home a bride’s maid. But even she was
a long-shot compared to “An Inconvenient Truth.” Anyone who thought that
“Deliver Us From Evil,” “Iraq in Fragments,” “Jesus Camp” or “My
Country, My Country,” was going to deprive Hollywood’s glitterati of the
opportunity to give Al Gore a standing ovation must be the sort who
believes in the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy.

Some folks wonder if Hollywood would have been quite as giddy about
sharing space with the Veep if the news about his mansion had broken a
day or two earlier. For those of you who missed it, the Tennessee Center
for Policy Research released a statement declaring that, according to
the Nashville Electric Service, Gore’s 20-room, eight-bathroom, mansion
devoured nearly 221,000 kWh last year. In one month alone in 2006, the
Gores consumed almost 23,000 kWh, burning up more electricity in August
than the typical American family uses in an entire year. My friend Pat
Sajak attributes most of that to the little light in Al’s refrigerator.

What’s more, the Gores have increased their energy consumption in the
year since his movie was released. So, apparently all that scary stuff
about melting polar caps was strictly for public consumption.

It’s fortunate that the Gores aren’t having to wait for Al’s social
security to kick in, for none of this comes cheap. Their average monthly
electric bill is $1,359. Their natural gas bill runs them an additional
$1,080. That’s about $30,000 a year, and that doesn’t take into account
their other dwellings!

But lest you think any of these embarrassing facts would have had an
adverse effect on the affection in which Hollywood holds Al Gore, you’re
even a bigger sucker than my wife. I mean, let’s face it. If the Gores
are plunking down $2,500-a-month to make sure that Tipper’s electric
blanket doesn’t conk out, what do you think all those celebrity greenies
are spending to keep their gargantuan homes and Olympic-sized swimming
pools heated?

How many of those clucks hugging Al Gore at the Kodak Theater do you
think fly commercial? I mean, don’t you find it the least bit odd that
the person ahead of you in the security line at the airport taking off
his shoes and unbuckling his belt, or, God forbid, having his hair gel
confiscated, is never George Clooney or Leonardo DiCaprio?

I happen to live very near to the Van Nuys Airport. Commercial airlines
do not use it. Instead, the heavy traffic is caused by private jets
constantly flying in and out. Their passengers are more often than not
movie actors and rock stars. Yes, those very same people who are always
insisting that the rest of us walk to the supermarket, bicycle to work,
and drive cars that run on cow poop and cabbage leaves.

Frankly, the only way that Al Gore’s piece of left-wing propaganda
wouldn’t have won the Oscar this year is if Michael Moore had had a film
titled, perhaps, “My Country, My Curse,” in competition.
