Excerpts from the September 3, 2001, issue of Time Magazine I found on the Metro yesterday that now –- more than four years later -- seem oddly prescient, silly and/or kind of sad

-- A quote from President Bush in which he refers to a tree expert as an "arbo-tree-ist."

What a knucklehead! At least there's no chance we'll re-elect him.

-- A brief article that wonders whether Michael Jackson is still the King of Pop.

Um, no.

-- A brief article that wonders whether Eddie Murphy can make "Pluto Nash" a success.

Um, no.

-- A column predicting a "worldwide economic crisis" that includes this line: "Might anything else tip the mood from mere gloom to catastrophe?"

That would be a yes.

-- A brief item about how the FBI uncovered fraud in McDonald's Monopoly game.

Good work, guys. That's important. It's not a waste of time. Besides, there's nothing else you fellas need to worry about right now.

-- An article about how Bush was already squandering the federal budget surplus.

What a knucklehead! At least there's no chance we'll re-elect him.
