    The result does not come as a surprise to followers of Paul "the Oracle" octopus. The world's most famous mollusk correctly predicted Spain would prevail over Germany, and still has a 100 percent World Cup prediction record. All eyes will be on Paul as he picks a winner in the final between Spain and the Netherlands. What a great prediction...:cool:

      The term "Grilled Calamari" comes to mind, if he doesn't predict Netherlands to win the final :)

                The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

                      I was dying to meet him at the Chennai CP get-together some years back, but I think he was scared off when Rajesh posted something about wanting to beat him to a pulp. :( Ever heard of the movies that were "so bad, they were good"? Now you know why people wanted to meet Satips. (I wasn't the only one!)

                      Cheers, Vikram. (Got my troika of CCCs!)

                                      Good, good :-). We are currently very busy building our new house. The work is advancing well and we are very happy with the work so far (the workers are good and they are really careful). What about you ?

                                          He's never been out of sight. I could recognise him right away, even if changes nic, creates a new ID, changes his pic or wears a mask. From July 2007[^]
