This week we had viruses running the national power grid, people fueling their vehicles from trees in their backyards, and our third strange creature in a row. In the past three weeks, we've seen a giant beaver, an anti-nuke rabbit, and now a little kanagroo with a big attitude.
Hat tips to FastForward Posse members Mike Sargent and Robert Hinkley for helping us to keep looking ahead.
In the Future...
...bacteria will continue to be used for small jobs, while powerful viruses such as influenza will be used to power the nationwide grid.
...technological advances will give us as much as twenty seconds to pick up that cupcake.
...we'll have a holiday commemorating the gutsy industry group that defended millionaires by striking out at scheming single moms, grandparents, and schoolgirls.
...every home will have a back-up generator and fuel tree in case the virus-powered national grid goes down.
...police officers will be better trained to deal both with unusually small (as well as unusually large) animals.
That does it for this week. Until next time, we'll see you in the future.
