Nostradamus Said This Was Going to Happen!

Long Lost 943rd Quatrain Recently Discovered!
Shocking and Awesome Predictions Will Shock and Awe You!
Pinpoint Accuracy of the Prophesies -- Simply Amazing!

We present below an excerpt in translation of the great prophet's previously unknown writings recently exposed and made available to the masses.  The samples we have selected make plain what the experts have known all along -- Nostradamus was giving us keys to our own future. Like most keys, copies don't really work well. Only the original will unlock the mystery of what he was trying to say.  Will we have the sense to listen? Read on! [except in books-on-tape versions].

3.
To the Olive Garden Will Come the endless Sticks of Bread and oil
The desert prince sails to Byzantium.
Three Cards laid upon the table
The tipping point is paid in gold

500 years before the first chain restaurants arrived on the scene foisting faux Italian cuisine on a populace made indifferent to the absence of authentic fare by over-indulgence in carbohydrates and alcohol, Nostradamus predicted that the check would be split 3 ways, with the tip paid in cash.  Simply astounding! Even the naysayers have no idea how he was able to do this! The line:  "The desert prince sails to Byzantium" is a matter of debate. Could this be a reference to the anti-Christ? 

27.
The large-winged birds soar through the clouds
The nut trees wither and die in the belly of the beast
Only the noblemen will have enough for water
The fiery clash of titans spells doom

It doesn't seem possible that Nostradamus, who lived in the 16th Century, could have foreseen transcontinental jet travel.  And yet, here he is, not only describing it, but even having visions of minute details, like the galley running out of salted nuts and charging outrageous prices for bottled water. The reference to "fiery clash of titans" probably has something to do with the end of the world. 

59.
The roads are cracked and full of holes.
The way is hard for dog and man
Taxes flow in the old river to the sovereign
The wars of destruction rage to the end


Here, we have a Renaissance-era alchemist conjuring images of a 21st Century middle class, over-taxed and suffering the indignities of potholed roads serially neglected by the DPW.  There are no words to describe the prescient talents of this mystical seer! How did he know these things? Science cannot explain it. "The wars of destruction rage..." could possibly be a foretelling of the End Times.
 
71.
Monkeys of the sea
shrimp in the briny soup
Fish gotta swim birds gotta fly
The fireballs fall everywhere


The jury is still out on the meaning of this offering. As long as the interpretation remains unsettled, it appears to the untrained eye to be so much gibberish. While its meaning is yet to be teased out, most experts agree that  "The fireballs are everywhere" likely points to nuclear Armageddon.

77.
Men from north of the city between the rivers
Shooting orange balls fly through the nets
The madness of March has run its course
Once 64, now 1, in 2011, the Huskies are victorious

The "city between the rivers" identifies New York, specifically, Manhattan.  Men from north of that city (Connecticut) who  cause "orange balls [to] fly through the nets" can only be the UConn basketball team. The madness of March (the annual NCAA tournament known as March Madness), beginning as an amalgam of 64 teams vying in a round robin competition, concludes in early April with one national champion.  In the year 2011, it was the UConn Huskies. Had the skeptics taken heed and allowed Nostradamus to pick their brackets, they might have experienced the evaporation of all doubt. The skeptics don't like to dwell on this, but the Nostradamus brackets have never missed. Not once! Note that a minority of Nostradamus scholars aver that "shooting orange balls fly through the nets" is a portent of something much more sinister than basketball, such as a giant meteor smashing into the planet and wiping out all life as we know it.

84.
Sound the horns
o'er the all the land
If sounding horns
Brings delight


Self-explanatory.  "Brings delight" may foretell the Universe collapsing in on itself.

This collection should, once and for all, sound the death knell for oft-heard  whispers that the writings of Nostradamus evidence the psychotic ramblings of a severely disturbed and disoriented person.  We have proved conclusively that nothing could be further from the truth.

See?  We told you so!
