Flying Cars Coming Soon!
the-jetsons.jpgWell, sort of...

I've waited my whole life for things to look like the Jetsons and Back to the Future II. Where are my meals in pill form? Why can't I hydrate a pizza? How about a personal jet pack? Come on, science, get with the program already.

We may be closer to futuristic, gravity-defying utopia. A Boston-area company recently ran a successful test of a car/plane hybrid.

I imagine they will be available at Sharper Image and Brookstone by Christmas.

To infinity ... and beyond!

Ummm...Johnny? I know you were gone for awhile last year, but Sharper Image no longer has any stores....
They're only a licensed name for things sold through some department stores (Penney's, Macy's, etc)

Oh. Yeah. I knew that...

I mean we'll have Sharper Image back in the future. Yeah, that's what I meant.

Actually cars like these have been around for decades. A vehicle that with a pull of a lever the drive train goes from wheels to propeller; wings either installed manually or extended from the sides like a tip-out on an rv. Refer to James Bond flick "Man with the Golden Gun".
