The holiday season is here whether you are ready or not. I am always stunned how the news will run the same type of stories and people are fascinated by them. I thought we could go ahead and post the news now and then see what shakes out. This is sort of like the death pool thread on another site where you simply post up the potential news story and then when it happens you can just come in and tell us that you told us so.
So here a re a few of mine...
#1-Black Friday Chaos: Inevitably there will be a bunch of people camping out for Black Friday and when they get inside they really start to show themselves. Forget the fact some of these people camp out for a week because they are unemployed and living with mom n dad, now they run thru the store and really show themselves by getting into trouble. Either some poor old woman is trampled, some poor kid has a toy ripped from his hands, a weapon will be brandished, police will be called in, store video footage will capture it all and send it out to the World to show the true meaning of Christmas here in America.
#2-Politicians frightening Americans: This goes on daily but with the January deadlines looming you can be sure Fox News will use the term "Christmas" religiously to try and inflict guilt on everyone. "It would be a great holiday season if the President would just give in to anything we want." And not just Fox news or the Conservatives, they all do it hence the term politicians.
#3-Someone famous will pass away close to the holidays: This happens almost every year, usually it is more than one person but someone really famous usually passes away in the holiday season.
#4-Fighting over Christmas: Whether it is someone wanted a Nativity scene and the opposing people are the Antichrist, some group is going to run into problems trying to do what they always have done.
What news stories do you anticipate before the end of the year?
