Ten Predictions For 2009

It's the last bastion of a lazy blogger... it's a predictions list! Admittedly, some of these predictions are so personal and\or obvious that I'm unlikely to win this year's Nostradamus award (I confidently predict I won't win it).

1. A day won’t go by without me messing with my IPhone to the point of obsession (and beyond).

2. I’ll get angry on a weekly basis over internet forums discussing either “why UK comedy is shit and US comedy is great” or “why US comedy is shit and UK comedy is great”, especially those contributors who state opinions with Hitler-like zeal.

3. This year’s ‘I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here’ will feature someone putting their hand in to some insects whilst squealing.

4. The longer that Liverpool stay in the title race, the more I’ll turn in to a nervous wreck. If they’re still in with a chance of being champions in the last week of the season then I will have to be hospitalised.

5. Football pundits will give opinions that are so black and white, in order to make mundane incidents seem ‘controversial’, that they will cease to have any meaning.

6. I’ll buy books at a rate faster than I can read them.

7. I’ll compulsively update my Amazon recommendations every dinner time while at work, not satisfied until I’ve checked up to at least 500 suggestions. Eventually it will recommend the perfect book. Hopefully.

8. Sky + HD will continue to be an enigma, even after I’ve had it installed. The question will go unanswered; is it the greatest thing ever, or slightly disappointing?

9. I sadly won't blog as much as I'd like to and then feel really pissed off that I didn't, resulting in the odd week throughout the year when I'll post every day for a week or so, before giving up for a couple of months.

10. Computers will become so cheap that you'll get one free with Saturday's Daily Mail. This one is more of a punt than the others.
