Okay, let's all summon up our psychic powers (the professionals say we ALL have them, and they wouldn't lie, would they?) and let's offer up some predictions for 2010. Please try to focus your powers to the coming year, not to the coming decade.

My prediction, in Nostra-dumb-ass form, is of a REAL event or series of events that may or may not actually occur.

Swords unsheathed, the neighbors strive
To kick the dust in each's home
Broken crockery shall drive
The token swelling to the dome.

And here is a prediction that is a little more plain. Sarah Palin will say something incredibly stupid along one or more of the following lines:
There are Satanic influences--possibly due to the antichrist himself--in Washington, DC.
God (or perhaps Jesus specifically) supports a policy that is nowhere mentioned in the Bible.
Nuclear weapons should be used on a city having a high population of Islamic citizens.
Government cannot do anything right. Even the Post Office should be done away with.
Evolution has no basis in science. It is all a fabrication, like Al Gore's climate change.
Gays do not have a RIGHT to be gay.
 
There will be no TAM 8. JREF will be dissolved by 2011.

ETA: I mistakenly posted this in the "Post Your 2009 Predictions Here" thread. I'm tired.
 
I say
www.stopsylvia.com will be updated again.
Some celebrity will get married. Someone else will get divorced.
There will be a blockbuster movie come out that everyone will want to see.
There will be some significant changes to this forum. This includes changes to the rules, new mods. Maybe even a new admin.
There will be a major win in the British Law courts in a libel case for our side. But it will not be the final win.
 
Let me roll up my mental sleeves, dig out the ole scrying ball...eenie meenie, chili beanie, the spirits are about to speak.....

  • The majority of new television shows introduced at the beginning of the curent season will be cancelled before next season.
  • A sports figure will be involved in a scandal. The news media will pay more attention to this than to far more serious things.
  • A former child actress (possibly for Disney) will also be involved in scandal.
  • Look for heavier snowfall than usual in much of the U.S. this winter.
  • I see a mishap involving a bridge or overpass; some injuries and unfortunately some loss of life.
  • Oops--a spy scandal, too, in which confidential information will have been compromised.
  • And if that weren't enough, some major issues with identity theft in the spring and summer.
  • A politician will have to resign because of a serious illness or injury.
  • I'm afraid we're in for a somewhat more active hurricane season this coming year. Florida may get hit, or perhaps Louisiana/Alabama.
  • Bigfoot will not be proven to be a real creature, though many people will insist that it is, it is, it really is.
  • The economy is going to improve, but it will be touch and go and a bumpy, slow recovery. Unemployment will not ease significantly until late spring or early summer.
  • A new bank will emerge that promises fair dealings, transparent record-keeping, and honesty in lending. It may not emerge as a major player in the next year, but it will be started.
  • A commercial on U.S. television will be decried for being too dirty or for being blasphemous (or both).
  • I will continue to fail to appreciate the taste of rhubarb pie.
 
The football World Cup final will not involve any of the following:

Brazil, Spain, Italy, England, Germany, Argentina, Holland, France
 
Severe weather in various parts of the US.
A famous and much beloved Hollywood personality will die.
There will be an astonishing sports upset in late summer or possibly in the fall.
A terrorist bombing in Asia or the Mid-East will kill many civilians.
Another scandal involving a Congressman.
An amazing medical breakthrough will be announced before the year ends.
Look for some very well known speakers at TAM 8.

There are other events I could predict, but the specifics remain hazy right now.
 
Ghost will start hunting ghost hunters as ghost hunters keep hunting ghost.
Neither one finding anything.:rolleyes:
 
A practical form of time travel will be invented allowing me to make this post.
 
News images of fire burning on open water; a red sky at mid-day; someone dead will live again; an American icon will vanish forever; a barren woman will bear triplets; a terrible crime will turn out to be a hoax; the virus will mutate once more, infecting most people, but becoming less deadly; a major computer software company will release an absolute must-have product, absolutely free.

Now, if ANY of these predictions are spot-on for 2010, I will donate $100 to JREF. If ALL of them are, I'm claiming the million dollars and donating $100,000 to JREF. After I wake up from the shock.

:D
 
I predict that Anita Ikonen will declare that her IIG West test was a rousing success, that the misses were really hits, that she really, really, really did see the correct missing kidneys but chose different ones for some reason only understood by her, and that will cause her to move forward with a plan to get a JREF MDC preliminary test, which she will also fail miserably, but claim to be a success too, if it wasn't for all the meanies at the JREF.
 
A high ranking republican official will be involved in a scandal regarding either marital infidelity, closet homosexuality, pedophilia, or bestiality. A slightly lower ranking republican will be the subject of a scandal involving all four.
 
When I read the subject line, I immediately wondered how many people could come up with over 2,000 predictions.
 
In order to see the future, I followed the urge to revisit the past. Accordingly, I offer last year's prediction up again for this year, with some revisions and additions...


  • Australian farmers will see potential bumper harvests devastated.
  • Financial markets will continue a difficult run. Some major closures, some rescues.
  • Male Hollywood star of the 60s and 70s dies.
  • Shipping disaster in northern hemisphere spring/summer.
  • Tragedy in SE Asia around Christmas/New Year.
  • JREF receives legal threat.
  • Bus tragedy in Europe in spring/summer.
  • Public instability in Australian political party.
  • Aus Vaccination Network will lose members and have a difficult year.
  • Eddie Benitez will not apply for the MDC
  • The BCA will get out of its legal quagmire with Simon Singh.
  • Extreme earthquake/tsunami threat in SE-Asia/Pacific Islands.


Most of these came true in some sense for 2009 and I can sense them re-occurring in 2010.
 
Let's see. A prediction for the coming year, in nostra-dumbass form

In thread unending pages numbered
Poor debater tube of fire
Contends with logic tortured twisted
Far off beings sneak amongst us

Oh yeah, a few more specific predictions.

Sarah Palin will continue to consider herself relevant

Obama will keep trying to keep promises, but as usual find himself thwarted by both his own party and the opposition

Rush and the rest of the haters will continue to spew venom, at least until/if Obama turns into a fat white good-ol-boy

Orly Taitz will keep filing suits till she gets disbarred. Her husband will hire another attourney to let him play lawyer by proxy.

Gonna be a fun year, at least for certain values of 'fun'
