the blindspot: Predictions

When an subject is controversial, one cannot hope to tell the truth. One can only show how one came to hold whatever opinion one does hold. One can only give one's audience the the chance of drawing their own conclusions as they observe the limitations, the predjudices, the idiosyncracies of the speaker.

Predictions

I may not be Miss Clio, but here are a list of my various goals, forecasts, and predictions:

Sports:

Superbowl 2006
shows why I do not bet on sports...
March Madness 2006

Eagles will finish below .500 in 2006 season

Personal Goals:

New year's 2006

Business:

1. GM will go bankrupt. If a car company can't make money selling cars, they should stop existing

Technology:

1. Windows Vista will be slightly better than XP, but it will still be dissapointing, mainly because of the ridiculous computing power necessary to run it (translation : it will be slow). Competitors will not gain market share however and MS will make a fortune on it.

After deep introspection, I can only say that I have lived a comparatively short and generally boring life. To get the obvious but necessary content out of the way, we can start by saying that I was born into an average American, middleclass family (2 kids, dog, house, ect.) and spent the next 18 years living with them in sunny, beautiful upstate New York. The area I lived in had very bad public schools, so I attended private Christian schools, where I learned the usual academic stuff (which I wish I could remember) along with a lot of catholic theology (which I wish I could forget). My father is an auto mechanic who taught me that there is no shame and working with your hands and that you should only do what you love. At 18, I decided on a whim to go to Boston University. There I learned that you solve problems with detailed analysis, logical execution, and hard work, or just tons of money and a lot of bureaucracy. So being broke and hating paperwork, I learned the skills that I hope will make me successful in the future
