There are many ways of peering into the future. This page lists 163 of them, including cephalonomancy (divination by boiling an ass head), coscinomancy, (divination using a sieve and a pair of shears), ololygmancy (fortune-telling by the howling of dogs) and tiromancy (divination using cheese). Me, I prefer to stick with the tried-and-trusted method of reading between the lines of Microsoft press releases.

hence, if that was an accurate assessment several questions arise:

1. Were the predictions made before or after boiling?

2. If it was the latter and only heads, what happened to the rest?

3. If the above is fact, can we conclude the punditry we consume just a bunch of disembodied ass heads shooting of at the mouth?

Some serious minds would really like to know. In any case, I leave it to the readership to inform me of their judicious analysis and conclusions.

My felicitous regards to Glyn Moody on his excellent article on interpreting the real meaning of MS blatter. Readers, please note Glyn made no predictions he just analyzed the historic record and set it into proper perspective.
