Matt’s Oscar Picks: Down to the Wire matt

Important Life-Altering Note: Erin and I will be posting thoughts, reactions and the all-important score in the comments of this post over the course of the show. Feel free to follow along.


Erin was way more timely with her Oscar predictions than I, but the fact remains that I’m still getting these in some eight hours before the show begins.

Getting dugg was quite an experience, and I definitely didn’t come out of it empty-handed. I learned a lot about the internet, writing, creativity and myself. Presented here are the five most significant lessons getting dugg has taught me. It is my hope that you will take these and find an application for them in your own life.
