Rocking the Oscars

Chris Rock’s words while hosting the Oscars were memorable.

I felt it in my stomach when he uttered so freely, that it was hard to get upset about awards, when your grandmother is “hanging from a tree.”

Yes, we need to remember and thank those who remind us what it’s like to walk in someone else’s shoes.

Chris, you rocked at the Oscars!

Elly Alovis,

Miami
