    Default Predictions - 2009

    In keeping with a kind of "tradition" I started back on Anomalies and really didn't exactly carry forward to here, I'm starting this thread for everyone to make their comments and predictions for this year.

    Over the years that I've done this I don't think anyone has hit 'dead on accurate' with a prediction, but that's ok. Many things we predict are doom sayer type things and, well, we don't really wish doom on ourselves and those around us.

    I guess I'm hoping that we can come up with some predictions - good and bad, and the good will come true, the bad will fall by the wayside.

    This is a sort of "Pandora's Box of Predictions". We can open it and they escape forever into the air and space and never happen and the one thing trapped in the bottom of the box is "Hope".

    Hope shines on from the inside of Pandora's Box - forever trapped there, so that we may always have hope no matter what befalls mankind.

    So - with that my friends, I welcome your predictions, no matter how dark, evil-sounding, wishy-washy or syrupy. Bring 'em on!

    Merry Christmas to one and all and may your New Year be everything that you would hope for.

    My 2009 predictions.

    There will be a major war, not directly involving the United States within three months of the ringing in of the New Year.

    There will be a terrorist attack on the United States this year, large, but not unprecendented. In other words, it won't be near as large as 9-11, but it will be significant. It will be stopped by regular, normal Americans - and not the police, FBI or any super-agency.

    Rick will sail a vessel in the Pacific Ocean.

    1. The honeymoon of the Media and Obama will last throughout the year. Any problems will be blamed on Bush.

    2. The stock market will continue to tank

    Wow, Pj, that's pretty deep

    But you probably hit the nail on the head with that one.

    At some time, Obozo will receive a mortal head wound and live (if you are going to be so stupit as to send a round OBozo's way, please aim for the heart).

    After Obozo recovers, he will bring peace to the planet. At this present time, all wars belong to Islam. Only a man with the name of Hussein will be able to convince the Islamic jihadist to put down their weapons. No, Jew, Hindu, Christian, or atheist can do this.

    Peace will last for three and a half years. Then, all hell will break lose.

    There are many horrible events sitting on the horizon that could easily become reality.

    I hate to guess at which one.

    The economy crashes, terrorism here in the U.S., a major gun grab by the Obamanator, to name a few.

    But I do have an uncanny feeling 2009 will be bad.

    Nutty for sure, and I have no inside knowledge or factual data to back that up.

    But there it is.

    Hope everyone has their ducks in a row...

    Rick, I echo your comment that "Hope" is at the bottom of Pandora's box.


    Many pundits like to quote scriptures to make or back up their predictions. I would like to step out into the deep end of the pool and use the popular 24 series as the support for the following predictions:

    1. An assassination attempt on the first black President of the United States will occur. It will be a chemical/biological attack.

    2. A nuclear/dirty bomb will detonate in one of America's cities.

    3. With the incapacitation of the President, the VP will manufacture a new war with the least threatening nation on the planet. Of course, that nation must have resources that certain "cartels" within the U.S. are desirous of.

    4. The President will recover, but agents of the darkside of American government will try to remove him from power, as he is opposed to the opportunity to seize monetary gain (see #3).

    5. The terrorist attack will be seen as the "last straw" in continuing personal freedoms in the U.S. "In the interest of national security," Big Brother of the worst kind will begin asserting authority over even the smallest details of Americans' lives.

    6. There will be no "Jack Bauer" "to save the day," but rather dedicated groups of individuals who will fight the decay and erosion of American freedoms and ideals.

    7. Society will fracture under age-old schisms: race, religion, political affiliation, etc.

    8. The resulting American life will not be socialist in nature but more akin to nationalist.

    psychojoe will publicly confess not only to inhaling or trying it out and not liking it, but surpassing obama's glasnost- digging and stoking deep bong hits. His popularity with the media and the Mexican mafia will shoot him up to Vice presidential material for the new national universe. He might possibly pull a machete out of a hard rock like King Arthur, but that depends on a lot of other stuff.

    I will probably go to Midnight Mass and skip the rosary cause i have a whiny kid and do that later cuz i already did it and will do that some other times until i rest in the coffin I will build this year. well 1st one for the grandpa pancho 92.

    then the unwhiny kid will ask me to make a monkey of myself so i take the monkey like a ventriloquist and make shit up. improvise. i take the monkey's arms and slap faces. the legs act as a tail. I will say brood of vipers- stp telling lies- it makes your moth smell like monkey butt. I already did that which is why this revelation stinks.

    So later I'll reflect like padre pio on the prudence of revealing any predictions.

    True time travellers are truly very bad persons who due to God's mercy in the future have been sent back in time to relive their tribulations- a sort of present purgatory. The baddest persons have been sent back 1972 years to rewitness the passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ. No time travellers have ever told the truth too much because they know they will be sent back to go by the Providence of God.

    A lot of assholes will die and go to hell and burn there forever with the treasonous icy cold satan. The justified in heaven will rejoice at God's vengeance, for these souls will be justly punished for eternal sins against the mercy of God and Our Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Ghost will enter most souls and hang around a lot. Almost all souls have some physical vice-sin, so He cant stick around forever, but He will make charity rebound. Wisdom cannot even enter into a perverted soul and there are a lot of these. Some, perhaps many of these will relent and become sevants of God and mercy. They will be valiant warriors of charity. Some or many depends a lot on what our psychojoe sage refers to- let the reader take note.

    A lot of folk will become Bible thumpers but not understand the Word of God. They will stare at the pages and call it reading because they cant and finally realize that the devil is real, eternal life and death are real and they will stare- call it prayer and it will work.

    Then for sure, depending on some of Joe's predictions, a lot of other stuff will come into play. thats just a warm up.

    as for stategy- money has already become a unit of exchange in the barter of needed goods. love of money is the root of all evil. love of needed goods is not evil.
    needed goods are plentiful, abundant and easily transportable. money is not evil.

    ergo- why do perverted souls and enslaved masses love money? Or do they. can they barter in charity? Does charity perservere in adversity? Do slimy souls always get their pp whacked by the chief bailiff? Or do the just temper their fury and wait for the Lord?

    http://www.google.com.mx/search?hl=es&lr=lang_en&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=1&ct=result&cd=1&q=asthma+noni+oregano+epazote&spell=1

    Depending upon where you live, epazote tea is a cheap efficient herbal remedy for some asthmas. I researched it for a friend who didn't have time and he found the tea leaves helpful. I lost the articles I read, but above is a short google search which also includes oregano and noni. Oregano oil is available comercialy and expensive but great for many ills. I grow and eat the leaves regularly.

    Epazote in large doses can induce abortion- I reckon it contains some oxytocin, but you shouldn't have to worry about that. There are two colors of leaves. Mexican community markets probably have it for a few dimes. Don't take any wooden nickels- I remember that it is epazote morado or purple that works better. I think the other variety is epazote amarillo or yellow, which also helps but one is better. If you want the true buffalo head- ask me and I'll check around.
    Noni in large doses contains a lot of potassium which creates a contraindication for folk with renal problems. The commercial juices are way too expensive. I also grow noni and provide it to an asthma patient, as well as several diabetes patients. They say it lowers blood sugar @ 70 points. The asthma patient takes a half cup of noni juice each morning 1st thing- before eating.

    All of this stuff depends on other stuff that has already happened or will probably happen again. Which just goes to prove- I was wrong about the bong hits- so I'll probably be wrong again. Unless I die. Then I wont make any more mistakes. Or predictions. What will I do then? Any predictions?

    I have to tell you the Jack Bauer character is based off a combination of myself, PsycoJoe, Ryan, Brian B., Mal and Backstop.

    So.. there will a "Jack Bauer" around. One way, or another

    -A thick dark cloak is thrown over B. Hussein's 'transparent' administration.

    -Welfare Chic is all the rage.

    -The National Endowment for the Arts provides funding for giant murals of Charman O. Coming soon to a neighborhood near you!

    -Louis Farrakhan get a sleepover in the Lincoln bedroom and craps the bed (on purpose).

    -Can you say ... Fairness Doctrine?

    -Chris Matthews get a tingle up his other leg that leaves him paralyzed, but the Obamessiah flys in on his magic carpet and heals him.

    -A gun grab? You bet'cha. I'll be looking forward to seeing who is actually going to be willing to try and confiscate the guns. Good luck with that.

    -B. Hussein's adopted Uncle, the Rev. Wright, makes his way back into the fold.

    -A terrorist attack on our soil? Probably. But this will, of course, be Bush's fault - as will natural disasters, a continuing failed economy, disease, hunger, fleas on rats, Global Warming, Global Cooling, shark attacks, fender benders, that annoying neighbor across the street, toe fungus, spam, Bill Clinton's next affair, stinky tourists in DC, over cooked vegetables, those extra few pounds that people gain over the holidays, you know - the usual stuff.

    -Oh, and the new first puppy misbehaves and is sent off to Michael Vick's obedience camp.

    My ten predictions for the coming year. With a bonus prediction at the end.


    1. New gun laws will be passed that do away with buying any weapons that are considered "semi-automatic" Maybe via "Executive Order" since it's unlikely to get full support in the senate and house.

    2. Supreme Court hearing on above law will NOT overturn it.

    3. "Comprehensive Health Care" will fail due to lobby monies lining way too many pockets, proving that the Left in politics is more concerned with self than the so called people. (thank goodness on this one)

    4. "New Deal-esque" Crap fest foisted off on America like another "bailout" causing a deepening and lasting recession.

    5. Speaking of bailouts... The New York Times will apply for and receive an incredibly illegal bailout from congress as their paper completely fails. Congress fearing losing their flagship propaganda mouth piece will push it through quicker than accept their own highly sought after pay raises.

    6. New 9/11 by year's end. Thanks Obama.

    7. A bill will hit the senate floor asking for Sites like this one to be shut down for spreading "Hate Speech" (saying anything the left disagrees with). Barely doesn't pass.

    8. Hugo Chavez will watch his country go completely bankrupt and his power and influence end within the year due to Oil Prices. Venezuela's government budget works only if prices for oil hover near $80 - $90 per barrel because of rampant socialism. Iran has a similar, though not as drastic requirement for their budget.

    9. Obama will be embroiled in no less than 3 major scandals, all of which will be swept under the rug in a "nothing to see here" manner. Main Stream Media will ignore it almost completely. (that's an easy one since he's had more than that during this past year.)

    10. Saying anything about Islam in a negative manner will be illegal worldwide. Obama will sign the accord when the U.N presents it.

    [Bonus] In August of 2009, to be exact, Rick Donaldson will become older than the oldest antique in my home.

    I predict:

    1) Firearms and ammo buying will not slow down.

    2) The entire middle east only gets hotter and more destabilized. Obama gets frustrated as he realizes it's entirely beyond his control.

    3) Obama actually will start to see the MSM throw in the honeymoon towel late in the year and become critical of programs and goals going askew.

    4) Disney Corp. asks for a bailout of 150B and gets it as it is deemed to big to fail. Wisconsin dairy industry follows suit with the arguement that cheese is a National Security issue to American Cookery and Congress passes the Cheddar Rescue Assurance Provision (CRAP) for 500B. Wisconsin citizens hold a 2 week long fondue party.

    5) Toad gets a vasectomy in January.

    I guess I'd like to add a prediction.

    IF the terrorists can get their hands on a nuclear device, THIS is the year they will use it. They will use it on Tel Aviv as soon as they possibly can.

    Now, I'm not saying they do have one, but I'm not saying they don't have access already. I think they have been biding their time until the right time comes along.

    With the Israeli attacks on Hammas/Hizzbula or whoever they are this week, the Israeli's have upped this battle a notch or two.

    The rhetoric coming out of Israel about "fighting to the bitter end" is enough to make me wonder if the time hasn't come for "Armageddon". Not that I believe in that stuff, mind you, but I DO have a decent understanding of world events and what war reaps.

    In this case, any area of the world that can be a flashpoint, will be - kind of a take off of "Murphy's Law" (If something can go wrong, it will...) thus I expect that the Israelis aren't "playing around" this time.

    What makes you think Israel will do any different than before?

    They always eventually back off and that is exactly what the palis want. Survive the initial hit and wait for the world community(I.e. leftists everywhere) to condemn the response. Thereafter start killing indiscriminately again.
