Here we go.

Again, please, no flaming. The spirit is to gauge how accurate we are, or conversely, how bad we are.

Thanks!

Sorry, it didn't happen. Actually, since the begining of this crisis back in August '08, the only significant head that rolled --figuratively--, is of General Motors' former CEO, Rick Wagoner, in Detroit.

Okay, I'm going to go out on a limb and call for a significant quake along the California coast within the next 30 to 60 days.

Sorry, you were wrong.

"Oil will continue to drop to the 20's and if economic conditions do not start to change by the 3rd quarter, we might even see the teens."

It never happened, right?

0-4.

...within the next few months ... I expect the dollar to crash, big time

More than 5 months qualify for "few months", doesn't it?

The dollar never crashed, much less big time. Sorry. Wrong.

0-5

I predict this thread will predict 90% more wrong predictions that right ones... but that there's only a 40% chance of that.

If only one hurricane hits you, its a bad season.

I was thinking of a few others...Bush never attacked Iran, etc.

The school system is still up and running, and I told my neighbor two years ago it probably wouldn't reopen in the fall.

and so forth....

I worked in a print shop when I first got married; we printed some very, very questionable stuff. I asked my boss about it one day, and he said "if you throw enough at the wall, eventually SOME will stick...."

I wouldn’t say Madoff’s head is rolling but he’ll be getting pumped in the pooper pretty soon…

or is that another bold prediction?
