Oscars

I’m holding an Oscar party in my mind. If I win, each of you owes me $10.

 Everyone is so convinced that Heath Ledger will win Best Supporting Actor posthumously that the online odds for him are 1-20 (for you non-gamblers this means that you have to put out $20 for each $1 you would get on a winning bet on Ledger).  The odds aren’t much better for Slumdog as Best Picture and Boyle as Best Director (1-10 and 1-6, respectively).    I’m holding out for longshots Leo (Best Actress) and Tomei (Best Supporting Actress).  Each is 15-1.  

 Jerry Lewis is getting the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award (proving you can call someone an “illiterate fag” and still be a nice guy).  10-1 on whether he holds up the Oscar and says “Don’t lick it!”
