2006 marks the thirteenth New Year for which I've made a series of not-always-serious predictions. Someone with time on their hands is welcome to do some research on how my previous predictions have turned out. Those with less time on their hands can simply keep reading.

He also thinks we'll wake up to a minority gov't. January 24th. I wish I shared his optimism...
