My predictions for 2008 (and in no particular order)

1. The Democrats will take the US treasury benches and the White House, but, with another Clinton in the Oval Office is not entirely certain.

2. There will be significant nuclear exchanges in the Middle east involving the US, Iran and Iraq.

3. HRH Queen Elizabeth 2 will pass this year, and Charles will succede. So, by default the first born of Camilla will be next in line to the throne, bypassing Edward and Harry.

4. The USA will suffer yet another attack even more horrific than the 9/11 event. It will bring the country and NORAD very close to midnight.

5.There will be a complete and sudden tectonic plate separation off the West Coast of America. The resulting tsunami will be devastating.

6. Planet Earth will become aware of an ELE due early 2012 (Nostradamus) and world trade, economics and general living standards will deteriorate from the announcement.

The film 'Deep Impact' is pretty much the scenario.

Thats all

I think you've got your line of succession mixed up there.
What about Wills? He's after Chuck (NOT THAT CHUCK... Ain't no Norrisses in the line. They don't need a kingdom, and anyway, Chuck Norris don't wait in any line...). Eddie's way down the line, after Andy and his girls. If Clammy drops a foal, it will slide in between Harry and Andy.

1. The largest pyramid on Earth will be found in the ocean near the Marianas. The most puzzling feature of it will be a flashing red light at the top. The world will ignore it and pretend it isn't there.

2. A team of college students at a university in California will attempt a reconstruction of the Ark of the Covenant. Construction will be halted when it is discovered that the object produces 50,000 volts of electricity and is a radio receiver and transmitter. Again, the world will ignore this and pretend it never happened.

Nature does love to hide and, yes, divinity does have a sense of humor. It's proven each morning shaving in the familiar mirror...

POLITICS

The middle east will have a ceasefire...and then resume hostilities shortly thereafter.

RHP FOLKS

Darvlay will finally lose it and turn his back on all his followers calling them a bunch of Cliff Claven wanna-be's.

SPORTS

The Yankees and/or Red Sox make the playoffs again. Phlabibit claims their payrolls have nothing to do with it.

FORUMS

The general forum becomes so loaded with fluff and garbage that the UN declares it a wasteland unfit for human use.

DEATHS

Dick Clarke

MUSIC

CD Sales will plummit to levels not seen since rotating discs made of wax were used to sell music. Much of the blame will be placed on a realization that after 10 years of listening to bands like Deefhoof, MIA, Fallout Boy, My Chemiical Romanace, Belle and Sebastien et al, that the music of today is flat, simplistic, and simply boring after 5 minutes of listening. One good song here and there are not enough to sustain CD sales for entire albums and that the 30-65 age bracket (as a whole) do not feel comfortable using pay pal to pay for songs over the internet. Copy protection is removed and a plan to charge people a flat fee collected by their ISP provider to be given to the musician associations is given serious disussion..........However, hope makes an appearance late in 2008 with rumours of a band from the UK that sounds nothing like before...stay tuned.
