A struggling Academy

Yet another interim week has come and I'm stuck trying to think of something to write about for a column that won't post until next week. Thanks for all the suggestions on what to do on off-column weeks by the way. Your insight is overwhelming.

Blogs are easier than real columns that people actually read. Just trust me on that one.

Did anyone actually watch the entire Academy Awards? Could an evening be any more gaudy and self-promoting? They're almost as bad as architects.


So I guess I'll continue with trivia. It's fun for me at least.


In 1981, the Academy Awards were postponed for one day after what significant event.


It was of course the attempted assassination of none other than Ronald Reagan. Almost got it up by Friday.

I dunno, I don't watch the award shows. I think these stars are paid way to much, that should be their trophey or award.

you're damn right burfica. Why don't we give awards to the best viewers of movies instead of makers. They're the ones getting ripped off.

I know the answer to this one.

But that's what google is for so I'll leave it at that.

I too try not to watch the award shows.
I think any opinions except those of the viewers paying money to see the movies/shows/songs shouldn't be considered anyway.
