The Oracle of the century:

I was wondering about the octopus which seems to have made a fantastic prophecy yet again on the german football outcome. And, exactly as it had predicted, the Germans have lost the match to Spain.

The Oracle of the Century

Suppose this octopus was in India? What would we have done with it? Oh! A lot of things.

One, we can disband with the whole process of elections to start with. Such a massive exercise can be replaced with just asking the Octopus as to which candidate is going to win.

Two, we can disband market research for most things and instead of going and asking consumers, we can ask the esteemed oracle on which product will win and which idea will win. It woudl save a lot of money and effort also!

Three, we can send all our dogs and cats and beloved fish varieties to this octopus and at least make them observe the oracle make those predictions so that all of us end up having a "predictionist" at our homes. This can even help us phase out all the astrologers and have only the animal oracles to help us with decide on the future.

Well, I think you get the drift. It is a pity that the orale is talking about football and that too, only the German matches.

Finally, I am not personally sure whether the Oracle will survive a few more days, given the wrath of the fans. They are surely going to take revenge on it!!
