    During 2005, I predict:

    2. An anonymous coward will call me a "Nazi boy".
    3. An anonymous coward will call me a "Nazi insect boy".
    4. Timothy McVeigh will land in a UFO and take all the Born Again to heaven with him just like I guess I must have said somewhere on my web site but I just can seem to find the link right now.

    That's all for now.

    Oh, wait -- I'll probably shave.
