Paul the Octopus has died

After such an exciting run at accurately predicting the outcome of the 2010 World Cup, Paul, the Psychic Octopus has died.
Paul endured threats against his life from unruly soccer fans as he became more and more accurate with his choices. Some believe he was actually psychic. Others said he was magic. Still others said it was just a bunch of baloney and there was no such thing a a psychic octopus.
But whatever you believe there is no doubt that Paul the Psychic Octopus made quiet an impression on dry land. Judge for yourself by the outpouring of support in the Trending Topic....
