Re Predictions for 2006

Well, so far, it's another glass of beer.

I'd venture to guess there's a wedding in the works. Or two. Outside of that, what else matters????

Re Predictions for 2006

The Republicans will lose significant ground in the House and Senate in November (sure hope I'm right....)

1. There will be mudslides, earthquakes, blizzards, raging fires, and wild beasts on the attack (and that's just in California).

Also, Jeff will say something stupid, and I will resist the urge to make fun of him.

There will be at least one knitting thread on this site, which I will ignore.

I will get married and not tell anyone about the details of the wedding or the reception or the honeymoon.

Frazz will be disappointed because, while the electorate is unhappy with Republicans right now, they're not showing any added favoritism to Democrats, either.

Re Predictions for 2006

Republicans will crush Democrats in the 2006 elections and all talk of impeachment will vanish.

Gasoline will drop under $1.00 a gallon.

Tax cuts for the wealthy will spur a boom in the economy. Trickle down will be proven to be wildly successful.

Halle Berry, Jessica Alba and Charlize Theron will get into a cat fight (see the pics in People!) over who gets that Erik Kosberg guy.

Nobody on this site knits. They crochet.

Unless you are predicting they will branch out.

Re Predictions for 2006

Bush will do something inexplicable and some Bush supporter somewhere will be disappointed, but will rationalize that Clinton was worse. As he is hauled off to Sefton Asylum.

3000 billion tons of yarn will be discovered deep beneath the North Sea, but the attempt to mine it will awaken Dagon.

A student from Miskatonic University will claim he was visited by Homeland Security officers while researching Deep Ones. I'll be called a hoax by the government, but the student, two CIA agents and three professors will disappear in what will later be called "The Incident at Arkham"

Fried calamari will become very popular.

Info about the honeymoon you can keep, but not telling anyone about the wedding? Oy!

Re Predictions for 2006

I predict that 95% of predictions made for 2006 will not come to pass. The remaining 5% are lucky guesses.

Oh, and I have Brad Pitt's love child and become a fabulously wealthy size 2 after discovering that a diet of chocolate and pasta zaps fat overnight.

What a coincidence! I'm on that very same diet!

The Texas governor's race will be a lot of fun.

Re Predictions for 2006

I predict that i will get out of debt... have my first argument with my husband. Postpone my wedding again. Try and quit my job. Try and keep my job, and then try and quit again. Not go on a diet for more then a week. And maybe do this a few times. Coming to no prevail.
But on a happier note I win the lottery without buying the ticket or geussing numbers... I will go on vacation... I will to go to hubby's family castle in Ireland, while on vacation... and I'll become pregnant by the years end.
But that is just silly, and not happening this year. Or next year for that matter.

Re Predictions for 2006

Mr Magic 8 Ball says that, big as the Jack Abramoff scandal may seem to be now, it’s going to get much, much bigger with the vast majority of those being implicated being Republicans. And it won’t just be already-on-record campaign contributions that end up being found to have been quid pro quo buy-a-vote shenanigans. Mr Magic 8 Ball sees prostitutes, drugs, and envelopes stuffed with cash.
