Some people make a living off of speculating on the future. Futurists I believe they’re called. Anyhow, they really can never be wrong, and because they have some letters behind their name, it entitles them to wildly speculate about the future. I think maybe I want to be one of these guys.
Below are my predictions for 2008-2009.
- AXE Bodyspray …. Laundry detergent. AxeL they’ll call it. Short for Axe Laundry detergent. (Also look for a Febreze-like product like “FabrAxe” …Axe for fabrics.)
- A female president…. as much as I hate to say it, I think McCain will win the election and be so happy that he’ll have a heart attack, leaving Sarah Palin in charge. She’s helping McCain big time: People love to vote for a great pair of tits. Look at American Idol, Kelly Clarkson … Ruben Studdard. Gender doesn’t even matter!
- Microsoft will buy a moderately successful internet company to prevent google from getting a strangle hold on the new “internet search real estate”. Though they tried to buy Yahoo! I think they’ll lower their standards like a slutty chick after a few beers.
- Cell Phone Viruses. Though computer viruses existed, and even cell phone viruses exist, they never gained any glamour until things like the “Melissa Virus” or “Code Red” took hold. I think we’ll see a virus along those lines hitting our mobile devices on a HUGE scale this year. M^2 …McAfee Mobile … secretly awaits it’s launch.
- LED’s. I think we’ll see LED’s replacing the majority of our lights in 2008. There could be a breakthrough that allows them to give more natural light. Inexpensive and long lasting, the free market will embrace them.

Although interesting predictions I think that we can all be thankful that your second prediction will not come to fruition. We’ll just have to wait and see on the other ones.
