Anybody looking forward to any award in particular?

Personally, I can't wait for the big Eminem "Smack That"/"Shake That" showdown...

Yeah, I'm wondering if he'll threaten himself.

I'm looking forward to seeing The Police perform. Apparently Sting's latest CD of 16th century lute music wasn't much of a hit.
