"One Website complete with diagrammed excerpts from Holy scripture, exodus2006.com, foresees the November re-election of Schwarzenegger along with the re-establishment of a military draft in the United States."

They must have diagrammed The Book of Armaments.

a legion of soothsayers -- from business gurus to Bible decoders -- is full of predictions for the year to come.

That's not all they're full of.

"Another mystic seer, Anita Nigam from India, has extended her powers of the paranormal into another realm -- sports betting."
Why would any non-quack psychic be selling sport events betting forecasts instead of betting oneself?

For the same reason so many gullible people pay brokers instead of just hiring a financial planner.

Sorry, I wrote "non-quack". If one knew for sure what one was doing in the stock market, there would be no reason to accept other people's money [as a broker] instead of exponentially growing one's own.

Sadly, Brazil will most likely win the cup, they have an easy division, and the Argies, and English and Spain are not up to the challenge, nor France. USA is in a killer division with the highly rated Czech Republic and eternal quality side from Italy and the pretty good Ghana.

As far as the rest of 06, I would start a Death Pool thread, but last time I tried it got pulled.

Weenies.

Better question: Why wouldn't she be offering some pretty good odds on those who wish to bet against her predictions?

That's what I mean. If I really knew what to exect from the market, why would I waste my time investing other people's money?

Disclaimer: I'm still do something similiar, but our profits have more to do with leverage than individual returns.

With the possible exception of the Apocalypse, no single event inspires more fevered speculation that the Oscars -- who will be nominated, and who will win

Does this mean that Brokebuck Mountain will bring on the Apocalypse?

BTW: Annie Stanton (the comet lady) also predicts on her website that Jesus will be back in 2006. Literally. So we've got that going for us, which is nice.
