    2b/\-2b, e.g.?
    whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outragious fortune ...

    2nd cummings we've already had 3 of and we don't get another for another 1k years.
    a small boy with a slingshot manages to down the presidential hilicopter, killing all on board.

    mel gibson probably HAS insulted trans-gendered patrol cops, we just haven't heard about it and most likely won't, unless corporate media is REALLY despirate to not tell us about something that we really needed to know about on that day.

    Bin Laden has been under the wing of 'big brother' rumsfield all along.

    and john 'auburn dam' doolittle, might actualy not get reelected this november.

    more shakeups in congress always something to perhaps look forward to, as pseudo-conservatives continue to betray their own constituancy.

    pro-bussiness and pro-christian fanatacism republicans will finaly and irreperably 'split the sheets' over phyolosophical differences. possibly forming two or even three seperate political parties to replace the existing gop.

    several well known democrats, indipendents, and perhapse even a few former republicans, will run as greens, and WIN!

    intergalactic federales will show up to arrest cheney and rumsfield who turn out to be wanted on serious felony charges in several remote star clusters.

    Much of what is going on will not be seen to change and yet there will be cracks in the facade if one knows where to look. The Democrats may or may not have retaken the House and the Senate but if they do or do not it really makes no difference. The same policies that are ongoing now will still be ongoing. The ploitical infighting that takes place will still be the cover that destracts Americans from the truth that is taking place. Radical Islam will continue to kill people around the world. The United States will quietly be sold down the elitist river in a process that was started in Texas in 2005 by George Bush and is the REAL threat right now. America will continue to kill 'brown' people in the middle east and elsewhere around the world and, as always, will use the flimsiest of excuses to do so.

    I truly believe George Bush will invade Iran and/or North Korea. We may have the first nuclear war and this will concern everyone.



    I also believe that Britain will finally get the Euro and Eurotunnel will turn a new page in its tragic story of plight and woes.

    Michael Jackson will be arrested and this time he won't be invincible.

    well the dem's DID retake BOTH the house and senate, and that's a trip.
    i do suspect that had the repubies increased or even held their stranglehold
    a full scale invasion of iran, well it wouldn't have suprised me a damd bit,
    if that had been scheduled for the next day, the way the massochur of faluga
    fallowed bush's 2004 reelection (if i'm not getting that mixed up as to when it
    happened, but i do believe it did take place immediately after some important
    vote on something).

    bush the younger still wants, appearently, to make war on everyone who doesn't kiss the economic ass of his bedbuddies. come january he will no longer have a congress willing to rubber stamp his doing so. or at least let's hope the dems will be a little less willing to do so.

    europe, even the whole world, needs a stronger union to defend itself from the onslaught of heedless economic interests at the expense of humanity and the planet.

    so i cheered for the idea of a e.u. and still in principal do. but even it has made a number of moves in less then ideal directions. and one of these being the privitization of infrastructure rather then a consolidation of it on a multinational regeonal basis.

    i think the most probably 2007 now is one of bush throwing temper tantrums of frustration. i wouldn't be a bit surprised to see him take off his shoe and beat it on the senate podium the way kruchoff did at the u.n. all so many many years ago.

    I forecast another terror attack in the heart of Docklands on April 9th 2007 at around 2pm GMT! Just had this dream the other night of carnage, although unclear happening on this date. COuld this be clairvoyance?


    2007, deep year, bit like 1987 was. Expect golden 1987 hits to return on to the charts in 2007:)

    2007 will see the end for George W Bush. On July 12th 2007, the American president will be assasinated by someone in the public crowd. This will be a woman of whom is wife to Clinton.


    2007 will also see the technology front pushed forward with advanced nano technology.


    Iraq stability will not return to normal as Saddam Hussein will be hanged and British soldiers will be the first to pull out of Iraq due to mounting pressure from the general public. Also things are set to go from bad to worse in the next few months. Estimated time of final end of Iraq chaos, 2009

    2007 will be a year that many will remember. As great as 2001 and as great as 1982, the year of the Falklands war.

    In 2007, the go ahead for construction of the 2012 games will come in the summer of July. The same day or the day before it when we found out we were hosting it. As for the cost of the Olympics, it will be greatly reduced from its current estimated figure. It will cost 3 Billion.

    2007 will see many new and exciting aswell as awful things. More than what we have currently experienced in the 21st Century to date.

    we will continue to live in interesting times, possibly in an ever so slightly and more hopeful manor.

    well i'll live without the beer and terbackie and all that silly expensive stuff to blind my inner eye, but i think you got the right idea pretty much about the rest of it. nothing wrong with killin whatcher gonna eat, just like them little creatures do themselves, as long as you leave enough for them to keep bein, and don't chop down all their woodland so as they wouldn't have any place to live if yer did.

    yup, every day IS the first day of everything else that comes next.

    although i think it's more importand to pay a bit more attenten to where we're aimin that wheel at then to just keep it turnin for the sake of keepin it turnin.

    i think a lot, if not most, of the harm that is being done, is on account of emotional attatchment to keepin it turnin in ignorance of where it's turnin to.

    life DOES go on, as long as it does. and when it don't there ain't diddly difference we're do about it. but as long as it does, where that wheel keeps turnin to, comes entirely from what is important to each of us, how what is to all of us, adds up togather.

    yes tomarrow starts today, but it also starts with each and every last one of us.

    there is no safty or security in ANY soverignty, idiology, belief or any damd thing else, other then not denying the connection between priorities and probabilities.

    (whatever gods or anything else might also exist)

    and there is no freedom in anything other then not robbing each other of the freedoms we would otherwise have.

    Another prediction_


    In summer of 2007 a great heat will swipe the southeast of England. Bringin with it a tide of severe drought and lack of crop.
    At noon on july 24th, record temperatures will hit a new high.

    October 2007 will bring forth electrical storms and the summer will go out with a severe gale called Hurricane. On this day of October 10 a cow and a house will float at eye level.

    A great president of the new world shalt fall. An invasion of iran will seal his doom. Iraq is to be anialated as the New world unleash a dragon of white light and massive winds. This is not a weather manipulation, but that awesome power is caught in a small shell called Atom.

    War with iraq, afganistan, iran, syria, somilia, korea and others will cause the military to recruit more troops in "any way necessary". We will be so busy fighting wars in other countries that we will not have troops to stop a massive invasion from Mexico. George Bush and Hillary Clinton will be kidnapped and held hostage in a cellar by southern mountain militia - good old boys from georgia and alabama. They will be forced to subsist on homemade moonshine and beans. Civil unrest will follow Bushes dissappearance, with riots and burnings of court houses and jails, and lynchings of lawyers and police officers in all major cities. Gas prices will rise to $6.00 a gallon and people will start going hungry. Canibalism will develop in the ghettos.
    There will be another staged terror attack much larger than 911, this time orchestrated by the "god hates fags" church group. The majority of the military will eventually mutiny before 2008 arrives. South America will become the new world superpower, by donating their oil to the poor of the world and installing solar power in every home...........

    this is at the extreme end of the possible, though not by any means entirely beyond it. except of course that some of the line items mentioned take conciderably longer then a single year's duration to transpire.

    i CAN see, even them 'good old boys' from the south, throwing in with ALL of us, and deciding even they've had enough is enough is enough! (that's more or less what happend to nixxon! except of course he wasn't physicly assassinated, but he was eased out of office, even without an overt empeachment proccess being completed)

    and economic colapse due in large part to military overextention is by no means inconceivable.

    i don't know about south america, even a united south america, emerging as a super power, and certainly not in a mere single years time, but i can certainly see the poetic justice in the concept. (and i AM rooting for the noncapitolist leaders wanting to and hopefully actualy dooing something FOR their people)

    gas prices, of course, can and almost certainly will, contiue to rise and rise and rise as demand increasingly outstrips an inevitably diminishing supply, till it reaches the point of no longer being the relatively cheep way of generating energy and transportation that it presently, if fleetingly, remains.

    i see no reason for this to stop at $6.00 per though, only that it could be at that point. well if it reaches that point before the end of one year, it will likely continue to increase expotentialy after that.

    then we'll see gas stations shutting down because their wholesale supply costs more then they can sell it for and make a proffit off of because no one can afford to by it and from that point the whole infrastructure of transportation being dependent on the automobile will begin its inevitable downward spiral.

    this i DO expect to see happen. maybe not all at once. nor in a single year's time. or even neccessarily to begin within my own lifetime, though it certainly could. but this IS an inevitable thing that WILL occur.

    something like what has been described here, only perhaps in somehow milder and or more subtle form, most of it, is a very reasonable possible outline of what we have to look forward to and expect.

    will the 'holly rollers' really kick over the traces and commit massive acts of terrorism? overtly enough to not be able to blame it on someone else, typicly their victums? that's kind of a big maybe and maybe not to the degree some of the more demented among them might like to. but then there WERE the mcveys ... who did manage to knock down one federal building ... and it did make the big gosh wow six o'clock infotainment.

    yup, except for some of the extremeness, i do see at least some of this as being not all that far off. and occasionaly some of the extreme happens too. the bushwacker's own extremeness seems to be pushing the envelop of what extremeness reality is capable of.

    even as i write this, his u.s. military has invaded an iranian embassy in iraq. under any measure of sanity this is a direct and deliberately provocative act of war against iran.

    and his plan to send more troups into iraq, well we knew perhaps this was inevetable that he would want to, has already begun doing so without waiting for approval or funding from congress.

    and he mentioned a chainge of policy to sugar coat his infamy of doing so, but in no way substantively did he outline any signifigant detailing of any such chainge that i could see or hear.

    everyone says he'll be an idiot to invade iran, let alone korea, but of course, as we all know, even his own hawkish father said he would be to invade iraq and do what he has already done, so who knows ...

    i think, i could be mystaken but i think, if he goes ahead with iran, as he appears already to have fired the opening salvo of, we ARE going to see a whole world, distancing itself from america and american policy. and much more dramaticly then we are just beggining to see already.

    (Nostradamus Prediction for 2007)

    Century X, Quartrain 74

    The year seven of the great number being past,
    There shall be seen the sports of the ghostly sacrifice
    Not far from the great afe of the Millennium,
    That the buried shall come out of their graves

    Interpretation:

    The dead, casualties of the great war, will rise up


    To me it sounds like he's talking about a Night of the Living Dead type scenario [​IMG]

    sounds to me more like the living, getting insperation, and encouragement, from the hundreds of thousands who have died so unneccesarily, to rise up and put an end to the insanity of all this gratuitous killing and brutalizing of this world we all have to live in.

    precisely as has been happening this weekend, and more and more everywhere and all the time.

    might even make congressmemeber maxine waters our next president!
    i'm not saying how likely the latter is, but things are going to have to chainge from the downhill slide the u.s. has been in moraly ever since raygun conspired wwith knomani to prevent carter from serving a second term.

    Well I just found out Rage Against the Machine has reunited and shall soon be touring, so 2007 is already looking pretty damn wicked to me. I'm definitely gonna be having a blast.

    World events - China will continue to become more and more powerful. By the end of the year it should slowly becoming apparent to the masses that China is gaining more and more influence everywhere in the world, espically in Africa and South America. The U.N. will face harsher times than ever before as countries starts to considerate on which lines they stand. The Western culture or the economic ties of the Third World. China will definitely gain more diplomatic advantages as they rise to their inevitable state as a super-power.

    Movies - Well, a new Rambo movie is coming. So is a new India Jones, Hannibal, Beverly Hill Cops, Die Hard and Rocky flick (please add more if I've forgotten any). I see no option but an increase of poorly made successors and precessors of classic movies. There'll probably be a new Home Alone movie as well as a remake of the first and second Godfather. The third will be put on hold because cinemas the world over will experience more and more profit-loss in 2007.

    Music - same old shit

    Religious - Christianity is most definitely out of the way. Churches will more rapidly shut down everywhere. Soon only a few 'holy' spots will remains, such as The Holy See and Westminster Cathedral. Islamic overtones will emerge more and more across European urban territory as well as in the Middle East where extremism will take a hold as a counter-balance to Western influences there. There will remain a steady influx of immegration into Europe, however this will include more Far East Asians in the coming time rather than Middle Easterners.

    Technology - The Wii will become a huge economical failure thus allowing me to buy it relatively cheap compared to all you bastards who already have it! Grrrr! iPod and all things 'i' will slowly go out of fashion as people realise who total crap it really all is. This will be known as the fall of the i-boom. Less and less expenses will be used on space travel, putting this technology on hold for a while to come. The next decade will NOT see people casually strolling down a space station. It's just not gonna happen dudes, sorry, it's waaay too early for that. Windows Vista will prove as one of the most unreliable piece of OS ever to be released. Windows will take quick measures to cover up the massive amount of bugs, spending fortunes on recovering from the loss of profit. The failure of the Vista will seriously jepodize Microsoft's future as more people turn to Apple and Linux.

    Economics - the rich getting richer, the poor getting poorer

    All the things you're talking about are already in progress, so they're hardly to be called 'predictions'.

    I hope more people will die and less people will be born than in previous years, and that this trend will continue for at least 100 years.

    I hope western civilization, like all 'great' civilizations before it, will finally crumble, putting an end to urbanisation, globalisation, all this unnecessary overadvanced technology, and western military superiority. I hope millions of people will find their deaths and that nature will reclaim its dominion, leaving overgrown city ruins as the only reminders of our despicable civilisation. I hope many people will die, especially zionists, republicans and christians.
