2009 the year of impossibles

OK, Obama is POTUS, and the Cardinals are going to the Super Bowl. Let's all reflect on that a second. Sure, it seems weird to say Cardinals and Super Bowl in the same sentence- that bird on the side of the helmet is hard to overlook. It's impossible.

So what other impossibles are in store for us this year? Is this a trend? If so, how about some of these impossibles coming to fruition?
