Category: Academy Awards

Let’s review the 97th Academy Awards results and see how I did. Again, I did not watch the show because I’m not interested in some celebrity’s political pontificating. I have heard there are some cool moments, especially for Mikey Madison and Kieran Culkin.

This is something new I think I’m going to try. When I was in college (back in the day) I used to play a game (mostly with myself) to predict the Oscars. I was decent at it.
