Day 190 Apophenia

Uno has come up with this scheme to get rich quick. It is all based of some story that Jussi has told him. Jussi is all about apophenia theories and he has come up with the following facts.

In 1978 - the Pope died. Wales won the Six Nations rugby internationals. Liverpool lost in the final of the League Cup to the eventual League Champions, and Liverpool went on and won the European Cup.

In 2005 - the Pope has died. Wales have won the Six Nations. Liverpool have lost in the final of the League Cup to the (certain) eventual League Champions, and so it is blindingly obvious to anyone who has an eye for historical facts, and a penchant for astrology that Liverpool will go on and win the Champions League.

Uno plans to bet his life savings on this plan, and asked me what I thought of the idea. So I told him straight.

"Knock yourself out!!!"
