HAPPY 2010!

Well, I must say I typically love the start of New Year's. New goals... new hobbies... you start thinking about how nice spring will be... where you'll vacation this summer... it's a time to really reset... really analyze your life. However, this year I'm a little disappointed... maybe you're in the same boat with me.

Here's why I'm disappointed... where are the flying cars? Where are the hover-skateboards? Where are the self-lacing Nike's? Sure, we've made strides thanks to Apple, BlueTooth, etc. But we're not near as far as I envisioned we would be when I was 12 in 1988. In fact, not only do we not have flying cars, but we're not even close as far as I know. Becoming an adult sucks because you start realizing some of the dreams of the future you had as a kid may turn out to be impossible. Like flying cars... the flying car part is totally possible... it's the logistics that don't work out in my mind. Are there "lanes" to fly in? How do we avoid the chaos of people just flying wherever they want? Crap, it's not gonna happen is it?

Anyway, I'm excited for the new year but disappointed at our status in technology compared to what Robert Zemeckis told us it would be. I can't believe Hollywood didn't get it right!
