Predictions For 2006

James Lileks' Screedblog lists some of his predictions for 2006... sort of. ;) As he puts it, "Tomorrow's news, today!"

One of my favorites:

Saddam was convicted and sentenced to death for crimes against humanity. While awaiting execution he published several children’s books – including “Goodnight Moon and Your Entire Accursed Family as Well” – and this resulted in a Nobel Peace Prize nomination and the solemn, creased-brow support of several Hollywood celebrities. George Clooney announced he would appear in a Saddam biopic.

I can just imagine the illustrations.
