Special Agent Oscar

I can’t spend too much time blogging. I have to clean up the house a little because I have a meeting with a “special agent” later today. No joke. I’m not even totally sure what it’s about, but somebody’s possibly been doing something they’re not supposed to be doing. As far as I know, it’s not me. I guess I’ll find out more later.

The Oscar nominations are out. I’m glad they nominated Jake, since they nominated Heath. They were both equally good in the movie. This year is going to be a tough one to predict. Every year we have our little Oscar contest. I usually do pretty well. This year the nominations seem all over the place. My early forecast is that Brokeback Mountain will be the big winner. I also get to root for Joaquin and Jake, though they may not be the ones I bet on to win. I always bet on who I think will actually win, not who I want to win or who I think deserves it the most. Some people bet that way, but they usually lose. I think back to when Tommy Lee Jones beat Ralph Fiennes for best supporting actor. Yeah, Jones role in The Fugitive vs. Fiennes in Schindler’s List. Sheesh. But they had to give Jones his lifetime achievement Oscar. I hope they broadcast the awards in high definition. It's fun to see how bad the celebrities really look.
