Anne Coulter will be found guilty of felony vote fraud in Florida and to avoid jail, will admit that she was the sperm donor for Mary Cheney's baby.

Rush will be caught trading internet porn for Viagra.

Bill O'Lielly will be fired by Faux for quoting facts not approved by the White House.

The Shrub will lose control during a press conference and physically attack Helen Thomas.

I will buy a $7.4 million estate overlooking the ocean, complete with pool, spa, separate guest house, and fully stocked riding stables. Just as soon as I get the winning check for $50 million (after taxes) from the lottery I don't remember entering.

1) The Fair Tax becomes a running topic for 2008.
2) Extraterrestrials will continue to elude us.
3) At least 2 more politicians and 7 more celebrities get caught doing (fill in blank) and get "better" with two weeks of rehab.
4) People continue polarizing to the extreme crazy left or the extreme crazy right.
5) Jesus comes back. Decides he doesn't want anything to do with us. Only raptures back to heaven a FireHouse Subs and its employees. Eats a New York steamer and decides to start over.

I anticipate a world altering event that will likely get very little press; peak oil, the point when annual world oil production tops out at a historic high and then begins a long, irreversible decline. In fact it may have already happened. It is almost universily accepted that total world oil production will peak within the next fifteen years, with a substantial number of experts asserting that we are within five years of this point. It will likely take at least a year after the peak before we can be sure it has happened. However, once past, the world as we know it will be forever changed.
