Psychic Octopus: Call him 'Paul'

Paul the psychic octopus is predicting Spain will be the 2010 World Cup champions.

So far Paul has been fairly accurate choosing winners and losers in the FIFA sponsored quarter- and semi-finals. Whether he has correctly chosen Spain over the Netherlands remains to be seen. But he has definitely proven that it doesn't take a genius to knock Justin Bieber out of the Trending Topics list, just an octopus.

@RansomReynolds Paul The Psychic Octopus picks Spain to win the World Cup! He's been right 100%, so far! Let's hope he's right again :)

@sobihan #ESP Spain was predicted by PULPO PAUL as a Psychic Octopus for the 2010 #Worldcup winner..Believe it or not ?? let's see the BIG match on Monday

@brentblum Now that LeBronathon is over, we can get back to more important things like Lindsay Lohan and the Psychic Octopus

@rupertg Can we sort this out once and for all, and give Paul the Psychic Octopus two boxes - one with an iPhone and one an Android?
