Fake Oscars!—4:38 PM

With the Oscar nominations looming on Tuesday, two things are happening: one, I'm hiding sharp objects from myself in case of a high nomination count for Avatar; and two, I'm scrambling to get the Oscar pool ready to launch as close to the nomination announcements as possible.

No major overhauls are required this time, but every year necessitates a new design, and in order to make sure the colors look good on the ballot page, I needed a couple of quick fake entries. No grand entire fake ceremony, like a couple of years ago, but a couple of quick fakies to enjoy!

Coin Toss!—12:05 PM

If I Twittered (or thought these things up 24 hours more quickly than I do)...

I bet each time the NFL looks at better OT options, the guy in favor of Sudden Death makes his point first, then won't let anyone else talk.

Is that it? Do I work for Leno now?
