The Future
On December 10th, 2006, I was talking to someone when they claimed that “Without a doubt, Israel would nuke Iran within the next six months.”
Well, I really dislike people who make grand claims about the future in such an absolute manner… especially if I think that they are biased and not considering all sides of a story.
so I made a note on my calendar for June 10th, 2007:
“Was Iran nuked by Isreal?” I wrote in quiet red ink.
While there are still nine days left for this person’s proclamation to come true, I think it’s pretty unlikely. My problem is that I didn’t write down WHO the person was who made this fantastic claim. So when June 10th comes… I don’t know whose face it needs to be rubbed in.
For those of you who like to disprove wild beliefs, I would recommend checking out: FutureMe.org. It’s a website that allows you to send yourself an e-mail at a specific date in the future. Just be sure that you include all the details… like WHO it was who made the ridiculous claims, when, and why.
