Who is your REAL competition?

I got this email last week. Clearly a tie-in to
the upcoming Academy Awards and designed to take
advantage of
all the pre-Oscar buzz! LOVED
IT!
From Kayak (one of my
favorite
travel related sites) The subject line read:
Best
Supporting Role by a
Destination
The email read: "The
2007 Oscar nominations are in and
"School for Scoundrels" was sadly snubbed by the
academy... As a travel company it seems unfair
that sound and makeup receive an award while
destinations do not. After all, what?s "Out of
Africa" without Africa or "Pirates of the Caribbean"
without a Caribbean?
That?s why we are
lobbying the
academy to add another category: "Best Supporting
Role by a Destination."
Tie-ins to events
like the Super Bowl,
Grammy's, or the Oscar's are fun - people enjoy them
- and can be newsworthy, too. If Kayak can do it,
so can you.
What's Oscar-worthy about your
business? Need help with your tie-in? Call me.

And the O&P nominees are...
Best musical score: "Phantom
Limb" by the Shins
Original use of a
prosthetic body part as a weapon: Grindhouse
Best depiction of the difficulty of water
fountain usage involving an orthosis: Joan
Cusack, Sixteen
Candles (If you haven't seen the movie. See
it.)
Worst backlash against a studio
for not delivering on promised prostheses for
amputee extras used in a movie: Warner
Brothers
Have any O&P related nominations
or categories you'd like to add? Email

me and I will post them on the blog on next week!
