Having a look back at some of our expert October predictions, we once again admit that not all the predictions were entirely correct.  In fact, really, none of them were.

However, our experts do point to this news story that says Sarah Palin was one of the top costumes for Hallowe’en this year, and since that did factor into one of their predictions, we’ve decided to give them a stay of execution and give them a chance at November.

Here’s what we can expect this month, from our expert fingertips to your eyes:

- Barack Obama will be elected the 44th President of The United States of America.

- Chinese-Americans will be skeptical of their new president as the number 4 is bad luck in the Chinese culture.  They are also forced to defend themselves against accusations of racism whenever they say their new president’s name.

- On November 10th, “Obama Bucks” will be introduced in most national department stores, entertainment venues and restaurant chains.  This discounted “American Dollar” will become so popular that by the time Obama is sworn in it will have replaced American currency.  “Obama Bucks” will have a picture of Barack Obama on one side and, on the other side, another picture of Barack Obama, earning the currency the nickname “Barack Backs”.

- Joe the Plumber will start taking correspondence courses towards finishing his University Degree.  Looking to lose his now famous moniker he will proactively launch his new website, joethehumanresourcemanager.com.

- Quantum of Solace, already receiving negative reviews overseas, will live up to its overthought name and will portray James Bond as a man too real to be any fun watching.  Audiences will demand their Obama Bucks back in droves.

- “Body Break, The Movie” will be developed and distributed by Sony Pictures.  Will Smith will be cast as Hal Johnson and Sandra Bullock will portray Joanne McLeod.  Bill Cosby will be the voice of their time traveling canine companion, Muttsy.  An advance trailer has been made available online:

Our experts have a good feeling about this month - we’ll check back in December to see how they’ve done!
