Predictions For 2006
Here are my predictions for the New Year. Let me know how I did next year this time. Add your own predictions in the comments and we’ll keep track of each other. Deal?
- Republicans will hold on to a slim majority in the House and Senate after the 2006 mid-term elections. Democrats will continue whining.
- Hillary Clinton will win re-election as Senator from New York. The campaign for 2008 will begin immediately.
- The US will invade Iran. Osama bin Laden will be captured in Teheran. Wearing a burkha. And stiletto high-heels. And lacey underwear.
- Hollywood will make 458 more really, really bad movies. Half of them will be sequels and the other half will be remakes of old TV shows.
- Jesse Jackson will fly to Sweden for a sex change operation. He will immediately start blackmailing several companies for women’s rights.
- Howard Dean will make an ass out of himself no less than 14 times on national TV. Karl Rove will be blamed.
- John Kerry and Sean Penn will continue to compete for Stupidest Quote Of The Year. Ted Turner will beat both of them for the prize.
- The European Union (EU) will declare bankruptcy. The value of the Euro will fall to one-tenth of a peso, its actual value now.
- Red China will buy Wal-Mart. The US economy will collapse after the ChiComs hike the price of nearly everything.
- Bill Gates will become so rich the banks will be unable to count his money. Gates will then buy India and move Microsoft to New Delhi.
- Everything will cost more. We will all be earning less. The oil companies and banks will be pleased. Your job will still suck.
- Muslims in Britain will riot and burn several major cities to the ground. The riots will start when Muslims finally find out what is in Blood Pudding.
- A major hurricane will hit a major US city. If the city or the state it is in is run by Democrats, expect complete chaos and finger-pointing.
- Iraq will finally start to settle down as attrition takes its toll on insurgents. US troop levels will be cut in half by year’s end.
- There will be 4,295,650,337 acts of incredible stupidity recorded here by the Skipper next year. Glenn Reynolds will still suck.
- The Skipper will finally finish his book. It will be published to rave reviews everywhere (except the NY Times).
- This blog will see its 1,000,000th visitor sometime in March. The entire blogosphere will be in awe of the Skipper.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
