3. People will be arguing over the use of nanotechnology being used as backgrounds - half a point
4. ~~Transporter beams will allow us all to shoot in Iceland~~
5. ~~The SC will be caught in an oil for Ribbons scandal~~
6. Woodies will unite and mount a hostile takeover - half a point (it's in the planning stages)

...oh, and the thing about the popcorn shortage. Hmmm... haven't seen any for awhile.

Let's call it 2 out of 7. Am I a Jeane Dixon or what??

Awww that's sweet, you're getting another tattoo?

And Art, there is a 100 chance of rain today in Seattle :-) And btw, Mobile, AL is the rainiest city in the US.

Sometimes when I scan the forum posts briefly, I see the funniest things - I swore I thought that said "Drew will come out of hiding and beat Shannon in the face with a ribbon!"

Maybe it was just my own premonition. ...or wishful thinking. ;-)

I hope someone gets pics of Drew beating Shannon in the face with a ribbon... LOL

Rikki will win another ribbon.

It will come to light that "De Sousa" is actually celtic for "We are five" signifying that it has been five separate people submitting under that one name. (gotta tip scarbrd for this revelation).

Judi will be six months into her two year probation for indecent exposure.

Art will be tragically killed in an incident involving fire and villages.

Yanko will similarly be hurt when he uses the burn tool to such an extent as to actually catch his laptop on fire.

President Achoo will hold intergalactic peace talks for the first time with the Romulans.

De Souse #3 is by far the best one.

Begging???? And I have to wait a whole year??????

Nuzzer will have 7 more ribbons, all yellow.

DrAchoo will realize that East Carolina is not a state in the US

Yanko will give a wise ass comment on a ribbon winning entry of mine. (Wait, he does that now.)

Biteme will realize what she's been missing all these years when I finally collect on that kiss.

Silverfoxx will have been chosen as fave photographer 2000 times, pictures 10,000 times and still have under 50 entries.

Strikeslip will take more disgusting pictures of various animals relieveing themselves. (I know, that was a lay up)

De Sousa will go three challenges without winning a ribbon.

Alfresco will get married wearing a lovely Vera Wang wedding dress.

idnic Will get a Canon 40D, 50D and will be anxiously awaiting the release of the 60D

thank you for the opportunity! ;)

I predict in the next year:

-Leroy will discover that he can channel his suffering into Art. This will change his whole way of life.

-Art will get a restraining order.

-Timfy will become the next Man Ray and Aimee will become the next Diane Arbus. Their scores will plummet.

-Melethia will become a globetrotting photojournalist. One of her photos will make Cutter cry. He will vote Democratic.

-Zeuszen will be unmasked as Mark Strand. There will be murmurs at DPC that one of his most popular poems was based on a string cheese incident that occurred between Leroy and Yanko. This exposure will take a tremendous burden off of Yanko's shoulders and he will compete with sherpet as DPC's main source of sunshine.
