Though I love films (both watching and working in them... hint, hint...), admittedly this year, between working on my next book and my addiction to watching semi-random “foreign” films on Netflix streaming, I have fallen a little behind in my box office support responsibilities.
Still, never one to let ignorance stand in the way of a good (or bad) blog post, I have compiled a list of my suggestions for the Oscar Awards.
- Best Leading Muppet in a Comedy, Musical, or Garbage Can: Oscar the Grouch
- Best Fin-ematography: Astronotus ocellatus (aka Oscars)*
- Best Couture By A Designer You're Kinda Surprised To Find Out Is Still Alive: Oscar de la Renta
- Best Cross-dressing in a Documentary or Adulterous Affair: Oscar De La Hoya
- Best Walter Matthau character: Oscar Madison in The Odd Couple
- Best Portrayal of an Historical Figure in a Film I Slept Through: Oskar Schindler in Schinder's List**
- Best Use of Epigrams in a Short Dramatic Work or Life: Oscar Wilde
- Best Use of the Word “Isinglass” in a Score or Song About Oklahoma: Oscar Hammerstein II for “The Surrey With The Fringe On Top”
- Best Use of Ears, Lips, and Snouts in a Luncheon Meat Role: Oscar Mayer for bologna***
- Best Hair: Oscar Bluth
Today's lesson: I have a terrible sense of humor. Just awful.
Next: Something further highlighting the statement above

***Yes, I did have to sing the jingle to remember how to spell it properly.
