SUMMARY:Looking Back - Looking Ahead - 2023 in Review/Predictions for 2024
DESCRIPTION:This is\, without question\, my most eagerly awaited program of the year returns! Last year\, this program sold out at every venue – so reserve your seats early! \nPerhaps it’s just the era we are in\, but this year seemed to be one of the most extraordinary of our lifetimes. We saw a major and terrifying war involving Israel\, the former president of the United States of America being found responsible for sexual assault and for fraud in separate courts while facing significant criminal charges in several venues\, the House of Representatives in utter chaos\, Chicago sports teams collapsing\, a major crisis of migrants at the southern border and in Chicago\, and a wild presidential election awaiting us. \nIn early December of each year\, I present a look back at the year coming to a close. I will list: \n√ Top Ten News Stories of 2023 \n√ Top Ten Quotes of 2023 \n√ Top Ten New Words of 2023 \n√ Important Deaths of 2023 \nPREDICTIONS!\nAnd then comes the part everyone enjoys – I will make ten specific predictions for 2024! Who will be elected president? Will Donald Trump be sent to prison? Will a solution be found for the migrant crisis or for inflation? What new breakthroughs will science and technology offer us in the coming year? \nAnd just so you can keep me honest\, I will show you precisely what I predicted for 2023. We will assess how correct – or not – I was in my predictions for this year!! \n  \n  \n
