Future Headlines

I have had fun in the past with silly sounding headlines. Now is the time to predict our country's (and the world's) future news headlines. How pessimistic, or optimistic, are you?

The year is 2030, twenty-five years in the future. What are the headlines?

Some ideas:

European-americans still trying to have English recognized as California's third language.

Baby conceived naturally - - scientists stumped.

Couple petitions court to reinstate heterosexual marriage.

France pleads for global help after being taken over by Jamaica.

Castro finally dies at age 112; Cuban cigars can now be imported legally, but President Chelsea Clinton has banned all smoking.

George Z. Bush says he will run for President in 2032.

Postal Service raises price of first class stamp to $17.89 and reduces mail delivery to Wednesdays only.

85-year, $75.8 billion study: Diet and Exercise is the key to weight loss.

Average height of NBA players now nine feet, seven inches; average sentence for first offenses now 2 years, 6 months.

Capitol Hill intern indicted for refusing to have sex with congressman.

Florida voters still having trouble with voting machines.

The floor is open.
