It's 11:06 p.m. Sunday and the dead people montage at the Academy Awards just concluded.
I'm such a sucker for the dead people montage. Don't care if it's the Oscars, the Grammys, the Emmys or even the Quills (awards for books). Gimme a video list of those in the particular industry who died since the last award show and I will watch it. I won't get up to get a drink, or go to the bathroom, or answer a phone call or check an email. I want to see dead people!
I can't explain why. It's not like I'm macabre. But I love the dead people montage. So much so, that my new goal in life is to perform at such a high level in my career that 63 years from now, I will wind up in the dead people montage at the awards show for bloggers and journalists.
And yes, the campaigning starts now.

Sap! :)
It's a good thing they put up the dates for inclusion. Otherwise, I'd have been all "Hey, where's Roy Scheider?!?!?"
Chris,
Roy will get his love next year and I will ooh and ahh the entire time. I need a montage!
