This Made Me Smile!

When I'm writing, I use Thesaurus.com to to find just the right word.  Yesterday's post about weather and snow days had me searching for synonyms for meteorologist.  The site is usually pretty straightforward, but my search turned up some strange results.  This was the first:

Main Entry: prophet 

Part of Speech: noun 

Definition: person, thing that predicts future 

Synonyms: astrologer, augur, auspex, bard, clairvoyant, diviner, druid, evocator, forecaster, fortuneteller, haruspex, horoscopist, magus, medium, meteorologist, oracle, ovate, palmist, predictor, prognosticator, prophesier, reader, seer, seeress, sibyl, soothsayer, sorcerer, tea-leaf reader, witch, wizard

The other entries were in the same vein, listing words like nostradamus, prophetess, and vaticinator.  At Thesaurus.com they mustn't be crazy about the people that forecast the weather!
