Failed prophecy: Betty White does NOT buy World Series winning baseball team.

Publication: Sun

Date: 20 June 2011

Back in June, the Sun had a cover with four prophecies for this year, none of them about the end of the world.  One was that Miss Betty White would buy a baseball team and that team would win the World Series.

She is not part of the St. Louis Cardinal ownership.

The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow Alert™: Not quite the predicted flood in September.

Way back in June, the Sun gave us some Mayan prophecies for this year, which kinda sorta came true but on a teeny tiny scale.

The first was Midwest earthquakes in July. There are always earthquakes in the Midwest, especially around Arkansas, but they are little things, not even 3.0 on the Richter scale.

(For the record, the big East Coast quake was not in July.)

There was also a report of the entire U.S. being swept by floods in September, with a graphic of a big wave hitting the Statue of Liberty, not unlike this special effects shot from The Day After Tomorrow.

There were floods, but nothing like what was predicted.

Carry on with your everyday existence.

The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow Alert™: All the 9/11/11 prophecies kinda fizzle.

Last month, the Sun had a passel of headlines about what would come to pass by yesterday, 9/11/11, all predicted by Nostradamus. Here they are.

• Nuclear blast rocks U.S.
• Great depression
• Bin Laden seen alive!
• Lady Liberty speaks
• Antichrist is a woman!
  

The only one of them that's even close is the great depression, but most economists disagree and it certainly didn't get massively worse in the past four weeks, so I'm going to hang a big zero for five around Michel de Nostradamus' long dead neck.
