Post your predictions for 2014. Anything from Sports, Oscars to the 2014 House/Senate elections, SCOTUS rulings, Texas governors race, to the Super Bowl, etc.
The pixie hair cut for women is back in style. Big hair is still in its revival.
“Big hair is still in its revival.”
I hope so!!!
Obama takes five vacations costing the US taxpayer $25,000,000.00 and no one asks where the money is coming from in the budget that has not existed since Obama took office.
America will begin implementing “Buy American” measures.
Look for another run-up in the stock market.
Unfortunately also, there will be a big press for yet more illegal immigration.
I don’t know whether we will be able to avoid it, or not.
I sure hope we can.
Please, enough with your “Buy American” shtick that you post everywhere. It’s gone, like iceboxes and leaving house doors unlocked.
Oh you don’t want American jobs.
OK. Thanks for saying so.

He never foresaw a sharknado...
This will be the year that China’s economic house of cards collapses. They built a Potemkin economy based on a fraudulent banking system, widespread corruption/deception, and the kind of low-skilled labor-intensive economy that no country in their right mind wants anymore (thus their constant, yet failed, attempts to “move up the food chain”). Look for widespread riots, and separation of regional governments from Beijing. Their collapse will work in concert with ...
Last year was the last year in which Japan could put off the inevitable. An aging demographic, an export-based economy at a time of shrinking global demand, and a mountain of debt, will catch up with them in a spectacular crash.
Whether this triggers a global systemic collapse remains to be seen, but the amount of leverage that has gone into the extreme global inflation in anything liquid, or anything that can serve as collateral for more debt, makes this a distinct possibility.
Go threapcrap somewhere else.
An optimistic prediction if ever there was one.
OK, I’ll play.
The lady that cleans house for my sis in Arkansas, a good hard working and uncomplaining lady, has best said what is happening to our sad nation, “We have never known for sure what will happen to us but now we are pretty sure it is going to be bad.” On balance, I see nothing good happening to the nation this coming year.
1. Immigration “reform” gets shoved down our throats just like obamacare. The protests are loud but unheard
2. EPA is unleashed like a pack of wild dogs and rule making comes down to the level of the swale in your yard. Ammunition becomes almost impossible to buy because of lead shortages. Car battery prices double and so on.
3. China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan all deepen their differences and it comes to skirmishes but not blows.... yet.
4. The economy is falsely kept afloat to preserve the legacy of obungo. The fall that will come only becomes worse.
5. During the year, the oil boom goes bust because of oversupply. The bust will last two to three years because the decline in production from shale is so precipitous and that production alone falls by 40 to 50%.
6. Outright FRAUD in the fall elections is clearly evident. Not just irregularities but FRAUD. As a result, there are a few outbreaks similar to the Athens War (McMinn County War). All the perpetrators are rounded up quickly and essentially “disappear”. In fact, the outbreaks are not even acknowledged nationally and become an open secret only whispered.
7. As a result of Election FRAUD rats retain the Senate and the house majority is diminished. Instead of the obvious pubbie lawsuits there are rat lawsuits claiming fraud and demanding recounts for unwon house seats. pubbies refuse to file any charges citing the fragility of the republic.
8. The military continues to rot and accidents from failed and wasting equipment begin. The rot begins to look like that of the Soviet Union in the 90s. The number of troops on food stamps grows.
9. Blue stripe (Homeland Security) vehicles become more and more common (we have already seen them at some malls in the Houston area). I have wondered if the “blue turbaned horde” is not Homeland Security. That title truly does sound and look like something out of a movie.
10. I like to think that morals conflicts will begin between decent people and queers but am doubtful. See Athens War perpetrator retaliation for the administration and left response to any pressure from decent people.
I am always able to see the bad side of a thing first, it is my nature to be an Eeyore. I pray I am totally wrong but I doubt it.
Meanwhile, the front yard deer herd is acting confused by the piles of leaves I suppose or something. Squirrels are acting a little frantic in digging up the summer’s peanut treasure so the weather may be changing again. The great blue heron is making his rounds in the pond as I listen to recorded fireplace sounds and Christmas Carols. We are blessed by a few good friends who call or we call and will have others over for dinner today. We miss the kids but we have to share with the other grandparents.
I’m filled though with wondering how we will all make it and what is to become of us.
FR will still exist!
My soon to be ex-wife will continue to be miserable because my son’s martial arts instructor with whom she had an affair has dumped her because he doesn’t want to tell his second wife and kids about how he destroyed my family. Nor does he want to divorce his second wife and have to pay alimony and child support to two separate women. This will continue to make my soon-to-be ex-wife miserable.
OH, you meant something of national significance! Okay, Obama will continue to ignore the constitution and the gutless GOP will tremble in fear.
Obama announces his post-POTUS plan is to join the PGA Senior Tour. Ups number of practice rounds under tutelage of Tiger Woods.
Joe Biden gets lost going home for lunch on way back from WH meeting. Homeland Security issues Silver Idiot Alert.
.
Blah blah blah.
Actually I didn’t even intend that post to be pro-American goods, but since you’re making an issue of it:
Buy American.
You interloped to a ping in thread that had NOTHING to do with you. Nothing.
Go pollute someplace else.
Gimme a break.
I responded to a post in this article string, a post which was to a number of people, and contained several predictions.
I responded in kind.
If you don’t believe in buying American that is fine, you can buy foreign goods.
But don’t complain about a perfectly innocent post which until you started complaining about it, only included American goods because at 17 trillion dollars debt and climbing, I believe buying American will indeed become an issue this year.
A post which included several predictions of my own, in response.
All that said. Now that you’ve started complaining about it:
BUY AMERICAN!
