Here are my predictions for Sunday's Academy Awards for the top 5. Very scientific method. For each category I wrote the name of a piece of Oscar Meyer Balogna and placed them on the floor in not particular order. Then I let my dog Lucky into the kitchen. Whichever piece of Bologna he eats first is the winner. Truth be told i forced him to eat the ones fro best actress and supporting actress because Portman and Kidman are two of my movie crushes, but the other three were straight up. He has a 70% track record in the past two years. Now if I could only get him to pick NFL games that well, we'd make some serious cash in Vegas.
