And the Winner Is...
The Academy Award nominations
were announced today. Since the awards ceremony has
become such a ridiculous popularity contest, I
thought I would revisit my satirical Oscar
nominations of years past and offer up my choices
for this year's winners in the major
categories.

Development note: I've
noticed that this site doesn't look like it should
in Netscape Navigator. Rather than waste time
jury-rigging it to look right in a
soon-to-be-obsolete browser, I'll just add the
cliché "This site best viewed with Internet
Explorer."
