We're in the new year now and it's time for your predictions of events, deaths, etc.
In 2012 we can dig this topic up and find who got what right. :D
I predict:

  • Ian McShane's death
  • Unsuccessful attempt on Obama's life
  • You won't remember who Ted Williams is
  • Spanish economy collapses
  • New Xbox (That's compatible with the Kinect)
  • Google will try launch a social network (Facebook Competitor) or buy Facebook itself
  • Apple will stop making iPod Shuffles
  • Iran will reveal their nuclear programme is for "self-defence"
  • TV's that require no 3D glasses will be made/go into production
  • Elder Scrolls Skyrim will become the highest grossing game of all time


Your turn. :P

You just made my day by making me aware of that game's existence - I've been waiting so long! :tears:

Hmm, my predictions:

- Another new turn on the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad series from Apple.
- Windows 8 will be announced and betas will begin. :r
- Google OS will be officially released to the public.

That's all of my geek predictions that I can think of! :P

Belgium will get the world record of Government-forming on February 17th.

I mean, they've been trying for over 200 days now and we're back to zero. Surely they'll take at least another month...

  • Unsuccessful attempt on Obama's life
I feel like that has happened multiple times, so I'd agree with you on that one :P

Hm, I don't have any predictions of my own...but the farmer's almanac...I might have to read that ;)

Some of my predictions for 2011:

1. my cat, The Hammer will likely continue the trend of answering the call of nature outside his litter box immediately after I've spent hours cleaning my apartment.

2. I will continue buying generics at Walgreens.

3. I will change my gout prevention medication to "Uloric" and stop using "allopurinol".

4. I will get drunk at least once a month to help alleviate night time insomnia.

5. I will throw out a Shiatsu "massage pillow" I bought at CVS because this gadget feels like a gorilla jabbing its thumbs against the back of my neck and shoulders.

6. my internet message board will continue to garner remarks like "it's boring" and "it lacks personality and quality graphics".

7. I will be called a "dinosaur" and "old geezer" at least once by someone in their twenties

8. I will continue ingesting Goodys headache powders when I have a tension headache because they're the only thing that helps relieve the pain.

9. the Atlanta Hawks will make the NBA playoffs and be eliminated in the first round.

10. Actors Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn will appear in more romance comedies, taking one break during the summer to appear in a National Geographic documentary about the secret lives of African baboons.

11. Actors William Zabka and Dean Cain will appear in a "SyFy original movie" about giant, mutated bobcats menacing the American midwest, specifically a town called Hammer, Illinois. The title of this movie: Hammerpuss: The Bobcat Menace.

12. My efforts to begin dating a supermodel will fail.

13. I'll receive at least one spam email informing me I've won a free supply of diapers.

14. I'll fall asleep watching Atlanta Braves baseball games this summer.

15. I will continue to watch House, NCIS and NCIS Los Angeles episodes.

16. I will receive a predictably anemic federal income tax refund from Uncle Same in April.
