12. I call that the Professor personae
Oh look Professor Georgie is breaking it all down for us so we can understand. It's always a vague, gobblegook explanation of some horrow that they are forcing on us that he spews at the reporters with such condescension. It amazes me that he still gets goos press.

8. Bush signs $50B Wilma relief bill for Florida
News at 11:

The Republican Congress has passed a $50B emergency relief bill for Florida at Governor Jeb Bush's request, and President Bush is expected to sign it into law as soon as he receives it.

Even if Wilma makes a U-turn and goes home.

14. No, last week's press conference introduced last week's terra threat.
This week's press conference introduces tomorrow's terra threat.

The public hasn't been petrified about possible suicide bombers in shopping malls, so I'll go with that guess. But I wouldn't rule out threats to the FBI building in DC, so that the Fitzgerald announcements are delayed over the weekend.

I'd like to see what other people predict.
