There were certainly several choices for Pretty Girl = Picture Slot, but for iconic faces, it was either Dr. Forrester or Dr. Smith, and I decided to go with the show I actually liked.

Keep sharing the tapes, and many happy returns to all the living on the list.
 

Prediction: On 6 November 2012, Nehemiah Scudder, a former backwoods preacher is elected President of the United States and declares himself First Prophet. No election is held in 2016 and he becomes the first in a line of dictators.

Prediction: From –If This Goes On by Robert A. Heinlein, published 1940

Reality: Nothing like this actually happened, so I might very well have chosen the Ridiculous Bob picture instead, but it's been so long since we heard from Heinlein I wanted to show him some respect. And looking at some of the people who were front runners for the Republican nomination in 2011 and 2012, "former backwoods preacher" would actually be a step up in terms of curriculum vitae.

Looking one day ahead... INTO THE FUTURE!

A prediction from 1966 about the cars of 2016 by Jeane Dixon.

  1. Dr. Forrestor FTW.

    I have to confess that yesterday, when you said "a prediction from one of our regulars" I said "wait, what? One of the commenters here wrote a story with predictions?" and got kind of excited. Sometimes, I can't keep up.
