March Highlights. April Sneak Peek.
Wednesday, March 30, 2016 at 10:30AM The month began with final thoughts on last year's Oscars (yes, those were the 2015 Oscars no matter what search engines, IMDb, and the web say!) and the final podcast of the season. And then we bravely tried to forge ahead unmoored to any one topic, though we immediately lost our more fairweather readers. Damn you random people who aren't reading this! Ah, well. They'll be back next season.

Smallish request: can your April fool's prediction post include (or be preceded/followed by a post containing) reference and reflection upon to last year's April fool predictions. It would make for a fun read to see which passed the test of time/execution and which ones sounded good on paper before floundering in reality. I think this would add nice continuity to an already fun exercise.
