After having absolutely stunning success with Predictions for 2012, we must get in gear for our predictions for 2013.

I shall start with these:
1. A major security problem will plague a prominent company, affecting millions of customers.
2. North Korea will be found to have a surprising ally.
3. A movie stunt will go wrong.
4. James Bond fans will have reason for sorrow, and reason for hope.
5. A controversial game will garner much attention.
6. A notable musician will die relatively young.
7. Someone will try to recreate history from several decades ago.
 
8. There will be an earthquake in Asia in March.
9. A child will be born, it's birth celebrated by millions around the planet
10. A prominent politician will go through a scandal.
 
11. Justin Bieber will dominate the news, despite lack of anything worthy to note (This also applies to Kim Kardashian).
12. Pat Robertson will say something insane.
13. The pope will lament the decrease in the religious beliefs.
14. Newsweek will publish yet another story on "The Real Jesus".
15. Lindsay Lohan will go to jail (again).
 
16. A horrible train accident will claim several lives, and rescue workers will save a child in a miraculous way.
16. A Dutch speed skater will be on a podium somewhere.
17. A celebrity couple will have a very public domestic row, filling the rags for weeks.
18. A royalty death will affect the lives of many.
19. An earthquake will destroy many homes, but spare a church building, which will be attributed to the saint it is named after.
20. A group of whales will ground near a tourist beach and attract much media attention.
 
Here are a few more. I want to emphasize that the predictions I make are SERIOUS predictions.

21. Canada will take a significant step away from the Monarchy.
22. A politician will announce that the visage of Elizabeth's son Charles should not appear on Canadian currency.
23. Canada will tentatively recognize that the Cambridge Kid--even if a girl--is the heir to Liz, after Chuck and Billy.
24. Morley Safer will find himself in difficulty.
25. The 50th Anniversary of the JFK assassination will bring conspiracy "theories" out into the open, tales and scenarios even more bizarre than many heard before, and some in the media will deal with them as if the proponents were serious historians.
25a. At least one reporter will report that it is an established fact that JFK was shot from the front.
25b. At least two new documentaries will air that support the single-shooter scenario.
25c. Someone will give airtime to a commentator who will say this or something close to it: "It's been fifty years; it's time for the government to come clean."
26. A historical artifact thought lost will be found.
27. A holiday will hold tragedy.
 
28. Barbara Streisand will pass away on March 17th at 7:09 PM.

Sure, it's a long shot but if I'm right I'm set for life. Talk shows, book deals, fleecing the suckers comforting the grieving.
 
30. The sequel to "Anchorman" will be a hit at the box office ... but it will be widely recognized as inferior to the original.
31. A stunning change will occur in the life of DR.
32. Two East Coast politicians will put out feelers for a presidential run in 2016.
33. It will be announced that a high-ranking al Qaeda member has been killed.
 
34. All the doomsayers who predicted that the world would end in December 2012 will spend the year 2013 backpedaling and making excuses for still being alive.
 
36. Pat Robertson will say someting surprisingly rational (to balance prediction 12.).
37. A court will hand down a controversial decision followed by many pundits behaving apoplectically on television in response.
 
38. A friend shall lose his friend's hammer.

39. The young shall not know where lieth the things possessed by their fathers that their fathers put there only just the night before, around eight o'clock.
