twenty-eight years and a million words

Kokubunji, 2023.12.09

Today I learned that in the timeline of "The Jetsons", a TV show from the sixties, the titular lead character George Jetson is estimated to have been born in 2022. So where the hell is our flying car!

Speaking of cars, we learned that our new -- and sadly still unnamed -- car will roll off the production line on December 21st. That's the very shortest day of the year, and already quite close at hand. We're told we might take possession two weeks later.

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
