The Eighth Annual Kelly-Audra Oscar Throw Down has me stressed beyond all belief. Every year my friend Audra and I have an Oscar bet and every year I whoop her ass. I always look forward to it. This year may be different however. When we filled out our ballots, it turned out that we differed on only five categories. Usually I beat her by five. So far two of those five categories have been announced, and she is up by one. Of the three categories left (Documentary, Film Editing, and Makeup) I only feel confident about my choice for Makeup. I think I have the edge on Film Editing, but I just know I am going to get hosed on Documentary. Why am I so screwed on my Documentary pick? Two words: Tony White. I based my pick solely on his recommendation. And for those of you who know Tony, you're probably asking yourself, "Why for the love of God did you listen to him?" I don't know. Temporary insanity?
