Obligatory First Presidency Prediction

Since President Hinckley died, there needs to be a new first presidency in the Church. That will be announced in just over a half hour. Since we Mormons just love to speculate on such things, I'm going to give my own "predictions" here.

President Monson will be the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (duh!)

I speculate that he will choose as his counselors Henry B. Eyring and L. Tom Perry (my alternate guess would be Dallin H. Oaks)

A new apostle could also be announced today (but probably in April at General Conference) and my totally "pulled out of my butt" speculation is that it will be one of the following:

Gerald N. Lund
Claudio R. M. Costa
Earl C. Tingey
Marlin K. Jensen
Lance B. Wickman

Again, these are all just guesses. I claim no knowledge (nor prophecy) so when I'm wrong just shut up. :)
