Upon returning home from a pizza party next door, the 2ndGrader shared with us some pizza-related thoughts on the future:
Him: When I'm 18 there won't be a pizza delivery man. Pizza will be delivered by flying robot drones!
Me: (laughing) You think so?
Him: Uh-huh, it's true!
Me: How do you know?
Him: I saw it in a magazine.
Me: How does the magazine know?
Him: There were pictures!
Me: Of the future? How did they take them?
Husband: (to me) Um, he's excited about the flying pizza drones. Could you please not ruin it?
Me: We're just discussing the credibility of his sources.
Husband: Listen, you can either ride the wave of the future, or be stuck in the past forever. Get on board with the pizza drones.
Fine. I'd like to place an order for 2021. One pepperoni and one eggplant, please!
If you had a "like" button here, I would be pushing it repeatedly right now.

The military is putting a lot of money into unmanned drones right now. We'll undoubtably reap the benefits through pizza drones in 2021 =)

Tammy, you don't know me, but I think I love you.

I'd settle for someone who would deliver to your house: Pizza, AND a movie, AND beer. Via flying robot drones, or old beat-up Celica, either would work for me.
(They actually have services like this in Australia....ah, the civilized countries....) :)

Being a parent can be so hard sometimes.

Pickledbeets: This is probably not one of those times! Let the boy dream of pizza drones, Tammy. Maybe he'll be the one to invent them!
Shera: I like the sound of that!
L.: I think Husband deserves the credit for the funny in this post! Perhaps you love him? At any rate, Valentine's Day is coming up, don't forget!!
melch: Thank god. I can't have delays in robot technology disappointing the 2ndGrader!
Amy: You are always too kind!
