Now that the 72nd annual Academy Awards © have caught the wind like some majestic flag, the Green Hartnett Institute is proud to announce the less nostalgic and perhaps less exciting annual presentation of the Green Goddess Awards. For those of you not yet acquainted with these awards, let it suffice to say that the finalists in all categories, as circumstance would have it, are exactly the same for both competitions*. The results, however, are usually quite different inasmuch as the choice of all final winners is not dependent upon the many complicated considerations necessarily taken into account by the Hollywood elite, but is picked out with a green pencil exclusively by the Green Hartnett and is, therefore, solely a result of personal bias and bigotry.
