Too right!

I totally agree with you Lee. BP really should have gotten the LMS with the SL in 06. I know that PB thinks BD was TMI but in the end he was all OMG.

Easy on the acronyms, Shnoods. :)

I hear that Lee and Shnoodles are going to have an Oscar-off... er...um... some sort of duel to the death.... er rather... they're going to place bets on the nominees. I hear the winner gets something cool. Maybe it's a McFlurry.

Anyway, any inside tips for Lee you guys?

Shnood tipper

Post by Shnoodles »

Hey you Nibs,

You want a tip? Here's a tip - if Lee win's this year tell her not to hold her breath waiting for the McFurry! We still haven't gotten our root beer McFurry from last year...

But seriously it should be a close contest I think. I think 'No time for Nuts' will probably beat out that movie about the danish though.

The 2007 Oscar Shnood Pick 'Em is coming up! Me and Lee will decide our picks on a top secret conference call on Thursday.

Do you think we should try to see any of these movies before then guys?

Monkeys

Hey you Oscar guys,

I just heard that Abigail Breslin is going to be taking her stuffed Curious George monkey as her date to the Oscars. Crazy, huh?

In other news,

Lee and her roommates are having people over for the Oscars on Sunday. They are going to play some games and one of them is going to be a movie quote trivia game. So Lee is supposed to come up with some good quotes. Any ideas, guys?

I got one you too!

A muffin rack? I don't even own a muffin, let alone many muffins that would necessitate an entire rack.
