YEAH BABY!!!! :)

This just in, scrolling across April's facecrack page:  the flying car.

I kid you not... Did you not click on the link???  ^^^^ that link^^^^, for example???

As the Pointer Sisters would say, "I'm so excited!!!  And I just can't hide it!!  I'm about to fly around, and I think I like it..." or something like that.

This car is more of a plane that drives, than the reverse, as the article above mentions.  Won't it be so exciting to see a Jetson's moment???


And no, not the plot of the show, which is just cute cartoon soap opera action.  Though, I always fantasized about having the awesome clothing changer (you remember, please, tell me you do!!), and having a Rosie the Robot to clean my house.  Or just friggin' talk to!!!

Back to the scientists in question:  I seriously hope their employer gave these good folks a HUGE bonus.  Probably not, but darnit, they deserve it.  Writing campaign, anyone??  It is truly a great day for science!!  Well, it was the day they had their "Wright Brothers' Moment", as they called it. :)  And, by the by, they Wright brothers were from North Carolina, like myself.  Oh yeah.  That's what momma's talkin' bout!

I can see all the problems with trafficking flying cars, though. :)  Even with that, I am proud to admit that in my lifetime, we may even see hover cars.  So freakin' EXCITED!!!  And, if necessary, we'll just call in reinforcements:


Cheers, my loverlies! :)

***Note:  The Wright Brothers were born and lived in Ohio, not North Carolina.  I remembered incorrectly, as I am wont to do, and someone so very politely (ahem) put me in my place.  Still, I do need to check factoids.  And you know, I'm probably not the only person in the world who forgets shit. So there!!!
