    No, Pual is wrong. It selected Germany 3 times till now. Unfortunately Germany won all those matches and ofcourse its a very good team. 😀 Now for today's match, it selected Spain. 😀
    I don't believe this. Germany will win today's match.
    Lets see, what happens ?

    Ha ha! Why Biggie? Because his owner is a Germany fan. Is that the reason?
    Paul's owner said he will kill Paul if Germany lost. 😔
    I guess it selects Netherlands for final.

    Octopus oracle paul

    Hi friends i think many of you have seen the movie"MATRIX". So in this movie there is a lady whose name is Oracle. She guesses everything which is going to happen in the world in the movie. So now i am not going to talk about the lady Oracle.I am going to talk about the very beautiful creature "Octopus Oracle Paul"

    Just see him


    [​IMG]

    He is a very beautiful creature whose work is same as that lady Oracle in the Matrix.
    The difference is only that this is a creature guessing in the real world.

    Paul has guessed everything right in the presenty going Fifa world cup. Actually before every match they give Paul food in two different box, boxes are wrapped by the two presently fighting nations in the fifa. Now the amazing thing is that the box which Paul pick first should win the match. And the most amazing thing is that Paul has guesses 100% right till now in this Fifa world cup. He had guessed all of the right winners till now.
    Personally i am very angry with Paul because he had made my very favorite team "Germany" out of this tournament though i didn't believe in him.

    Now he had guessed "Spain" as the Fifa 2010 champion. And i am strictly against him because i want Netherland as the champion because i didn't believe in all these blind believes.


    So let's see if Paul will right again in the very final of Fifa 2010.
    I am wishing very keenly that he should get it wrong today............../

    Thank you nd enjoy the final of Fifa 2010

    Great picture and presentation rishi.
    Well in past.Human has also the capabilities to feel the energy of winners.Bust due to loss of attention he lost our power of feeling.
    Well if you watch the ORACLE character in MATRIX you know why she guess everything correct.
    .
    My friend ask me some times why i like more and more to watch HOLLYWOOD.Well this reality is one more reason for this.
    Well as a friend i m with you.

    Yes Paul might be right and I like it because it was really great that how a small living being become so famous because of something fictional but the correlation does not always implies causation.

    Recently,Spanish mayor presented paul with a bronze statuette modeled on its own likeness.. the spanish people started calling him as "honorary friend"...
    everybody treats him like a star... its just an octopus which unknowingly took food from a box... now they gonna use it for predicting results in politics too...
    leave him alone.. let him go back to his job of 'making children laugh' in aquarium rather than 'oracle business'..

    They (the developed countries) call us backward when we believe in astrology, kundali and worship so many gods. And now they believe an octopus can settle the fates of people and countries. Is it not strange?
