Ladies and Gentlemen, it’s time to start your Oscar engines, or should I say pools. Remember gambling is illegal so no wagering. Well at least don’t get caught by the pool police. They were out in full force during the Super Bowl and were rounding up little old ladies in Orange County and throwing them in the slammer. So if you do bet, bet responsibly.
This week I am in too good of a mood for my usual ranting and raving. Oscar Night, next to my birthday and Christmas Day, is my favorite day of the year. So in my efforts to help you share in my jubilation I am providing you with an Oscar ballot so you too can make your picks for the best of the best of last year’s movie pantheon.
Even if you haven’t seen all of the movies, with a little studying you too can be a contender. So do a little reading and listening and mark your ballots. Good Luck and may the force be with you!
