OCTOPUS VERSUS PARAKEET

It is very ticklish indeed to read about how Octopus Paul became popular after making successful pedictions on the outcome of the World Cup matches.  Never imagine that people could be very captivated.

The latest news is Octopus Paul picks Spain to win World Cup.  People around the world set their eyes on Paul again today as he made this biggest prediction.

TV stations in Germany, Great Britain, Taiwan and elsewhere broadcasted live pictures, complete with breathless commentary, of his final decision for the tournament. Millions watched as the world-famous octopus descended upon on a tank marked with a Spanish flag, sitting for only a few minutes before grabbing a mussel and devouring it, while completely ignoring the Dutch tank - indicating a Spanish victory in Sunday's final match in Sunday's final.

However,this was the first time he had been tasked to pick a game in which Germany was not involved.  The Oberhausen Sea Life aquarium bowed to overwhelming demand to see who he would choose in the final. Paul correctly predicted Germany's wins over Argentina, England, Australia and Ghana and the country's loss to Spain and Serbia.

He also predicted earlier on Friday that Germany will win over Uruguay in Saturday's match for third and fourth place.

Paul is no doubt the world's most famous animal oracle these days.  After all, all his predictions were proven correct.

Suddenly, there was news  about  another forecaster in the  form of a parakeet in Singapore.  We do not whether the owner is just trying to capitalize on the issue.  He claimed that the parakeet had made all the right predictions about the outcome of World Cup matches.

Of course anybody could say anything after all those matches have concluded.  Now he is blowing the horn to tell news.  Let us wait and see the latest prediction.  It is interesting to note that the parakeet predicted that the Dutch team would win the Sunday's final match.
