This story is about a battle in the art of guessing what's going to happen in the future. Some do it for fun while other for career. In this instance it's for bragging right. So whose gonna come out the better physic the monkey, the boy, or the acclaimed author and writer Dr. William.

A guy by the name of Dr. William Gray can supposedly look into his crystal ball and predict the number of storms we'll get. So this guy Scott Maxwell got to thinking it would be interesting to get a couple of monkeys from the Sanford zoo, his then-4-year-old son, and the Great Gray to make predictions. The monkeys beat Gray and his preschooler in a couple of categories. But Gray won the tie-breaker.

I suppose this might mean one of two things, either Gary is in fact a little psychic or perhaps the monkey and Dr. Gary are both using the same medium who apparently is not very good to begin with. Off by a whooping 130 percent.

If this story excites as it did me then I urge you to check out Scott's latest tournament between the same monkey, his daughter, and a local physic in their predictions for 2010.
