Predictable Predictions

In today’s Irish Mirror, Ireland’s top psychic Una Power provides her predictions for the year 2003. Among her many predictions, she foretells that Bono will continue to pursue his goal to wipe out Third World debt and make a “major breakthrough with a tide of support when showbiz, religious, and sports people across the globe unite with him in his noble fight.” Power further predicts that by September, he will have achieved a “significant breakthrough” and be hailed as a hero in Africa. Finally, she predicts Bono will be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

With the exception of the Nobel Peace Prize, didn’t everything else happen in 2002?

Interestingly, Power also predicts that Bono’s friend Bruce Springsteen will lead a revolt against George W. Bush in 2003 and be asked to run as a political candidate. Power says if the Boss agrees to run, he will succeed.

  1. The Boss … I could get used to calling a President that!

    Bono for President? Nah, I like him just where he is, he can do more on stage to woo the people than a President could on a Fourth of July speech any day …

  3. Bruce won’t do it, don’t worry. Una Power’s “prediction” is too late: Bruce already got major attention when people thought he’d run for NJ senator, and announced then he had no political ambitions. He says a musician’s life is about avoiding having a real job. 🙂 I personally feel Una Power is full of it.

  5. speaking of Bruce and politics… some years ago New Jersey almost made an enormous gaffe when they came within 1 vote of naming Born to Run the state song. Then someone pointed out that NEW JERSEY was what Bruce and Wendy were running from. 🙂
