WWotD - 23 February 2012

I refuse to believe this. That's right, on this one thing I am going for complete denial.

Speaking of rivers in Egypt....why do I need to believe in FTL speeds? Because I need to believe that one day, a transcontinental trip will only take two seconds.* Think of it....wherever you want to go, there you are.** No getting squished in Economy. No checking bags.*** No circulated air. Visit fifteen places around the world in a single day. The future is awesome!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!


*Yes, I know that the speed of light is @ 300K km/s, and the distance across the continent is @ 4K at most. But come on, you know the airlines would never be that efficient.
** Which reminds me of Chevy Chase...which for no good reason whatsoever reminds me of this:
*** And yet, I bet it still gets lost. Again, airlines :)
