Oscar Contest

I'm using the six major awards plus a tie breaker for this year's contest.  Put your choices in comments or email me in the next 20 days.  I'll remind you at regular intervals to get your guesses in.  For those who want to make it "interesting" and actually know my address (or ask for it), send a dollar.  The collection will be forwarded to the eventual winner, even if they don't know my address.  I'll get theirs.
