Why can't people tie for an Oscar?


What's the big deal if 2 or more win for the same category?

Dennis Kneier VS Philip Lao

Ties are possible and it has happened half a dozen times in the past.
But there are so many votes that the chance of a tie is rather small.

And boxing matches... do they always have to end with blood? Can't they tie once in a while?

Sometimes the collapse of a fellow human being is what stops the match. Sometimes a boxer loses consciousness and the round ends prematurely.

How's twinB doing today?

I don't know if barbarism is okay, but a fight to the finish is a fight to the finish, like Celebrity Fight Club (or whatever it's called).

The Oscars ought to have a category for Best Swimmer if you aks me.

I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive your Twin.

Sad really.

I'm familiar with Siamese Twins.

Like a metaphorical umbilical cord. People say identical Twins share a bond like no other. That they really are the same.

I just don't like the idea of Twins blaming each other for crimes and mischief. But then again, maybe that's only on television.

Elizabeth Montgomery played he own Twin Sarina in Bewitched.
