coolhouse Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Here are my predictions for 2002. (I [i]know[/i] it's already 2002 but I didn't want to rush into anything.) 1. Michael Jackson will be cast as the lead villain in the next Batman movie. The director will opt to forgo the usual prosthetic makeup. 2. With money from her $15 million EMI buyout,Mariah Carey will release a new album on her "Mariah Mariah" label. The album will go septuple-platinum. 3. EMI will pay $15 million to get her back. 4. Curve and Scott Jones will discover that they are twin brothers separated at birth. 5. Madonna will talk about herself. 6. Osama Bin Laden will announce that he's shopping his "Al Qaeda's Biggest Hit's" album. 7. Interscope will sign him. 8. David Letterman will piss off the pope. 9. Coolhouse will get a major label cut and retain [i]all[/i] publishing. 10. The label will hit up coolhouse's publisher(house of cool songs) for a $50K advance "to help with promotion". 11. EMI will release Mariah Carey's single "Coolhouse Rocks". 12. Coolhouse will change his forum name to no-house. So like whaddya think is gonna happen this year? None of that peace and love crap either! The country won't stand for it. later, Mike [ 01-03-2002: Message edited by: coolhouse ] [ 01-03-2002: Message edited by: coolhouse ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderton Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 19. Copy protection on CDs will be a dismal failure. 20. Record companies still won't figure out how to take advantage of online marketing. 21. People will surf the net in record numbers, and starting in 2003, all the people who were laid off last year will be hired back. 22. With OS X supported by numerous companies, Apple's market share in the music industry will start creeping up. 23. A new technology will come about that makes plug-ins run much more efficiently. 24. DVD-RAM will start selling like gangbusters once the price hits $299. 25. "Now That's What I Call Music #(whatever)" will be the top-selling CD of 2002. 26. Curve and Scott Jones will join a cult, then subvert it. 27. This forum will be cited in scholarly journals as both what's good about the net and what's bad about it. The ensuing debate will give the site a tremendous amount of publicity. 28. My "Sexy World" CD will finally be released!! It's only been three years...sheesh...

michael saulnier Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 40. 2002 will forever be known as the year Michael Jackson was genetically tested and found to be of an alien race. 41.

Skip_dup1 Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 103. stealth technology will become available to everyone, rendering highway radar obsolete 104. ClearChannel will get the fate that Microsloth avoided-mandated to be broken up into divisions. 105. it won`t matter, because everything they are doing now will be acceptable business within a few years, and everyone on earth will be working for a division of the same company within ten. 106. the final phaseout of cables and wires will begin for all electronic devices. As a result, wiretaps will require medical, as well as legal, permission. BTW, #106 refers to Brainjacking-hacking directly into the ol` CNS. Remote Viewing, Remote Neural Monitoring-goes by several monikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
