Hey guys! It's been a little while, and I thought I'd like to share a meal I had earlier this week.
( Pictures this way! )

On columbia city rolls. Cured chorizo and roasted garlic purée.
Was really full at this point, but hey, garlic purée!? I'm there. I thought this a rather tasty sammich. Small, so you couldn't actually have this for lunch, but a decent-sized snack indeed. Loved picking the pickled peppers off the toothpick (say that 5 times fast!).

Hey boss, I ain’t workin’ for free here. I dug your hole, but if you want me to – you know – “bury the bone” too, then that’s gonna cost you extra.
Oh, you’ll bury the bone. You’ll do it quickly. And you’ll do it quietly. And fortunately for you, I’m going to try and forget your very unfortunate attitude.
Has anyone seen Sir Purrsalot, Gwyneth D. and Ariel C.?

Oh sure, every time we show you a baby bunny, or a cute kitteh, you people are all like “Squeee! Ah wawna pop heem in mah mouf!“ Well, bon appétit, kiddies! (On the plus side, you won’t need a toothpick after dinner.)

What wine goes with hedgehog, Brittany H.?

My favorite food item was a little appetizer called Spinach Nibbles. I am going to make them today. They were delicious!

Thanks
Films like Tron have a lot to answer for … Children see these worlds, and the men and women they become try to build them.

For most of my life the videophone was telecom’s holy grail, & now? Just another of the Net’s many afterthoughts, & a B-teamer at that..

Julian is right. When it was on its way video-conferencing felt very futuristic but then it got here and failed to take hold.
Which got me thinking. What other synecdoches for the future turned out to be duds on arrival? What other advances drove our imagination, only to fall short of where we thought they might lead? Two leapt to mind.
Chess-playing computers. People have been trying to make machines that play chess since 1769. Cybernetic pioneer Norbert Wiener and computer pioneer Alan Turing each devoted time to the problem. It was seen as an important branch of AI research. And then Deep Blue beat Kasparov and now Deep Fritz’ win against Kramnik is barely mentioned in Wikipedia. And we still don’t have talking robots.
Orbital space stations. The docking scene in 2001 is how the film tells you that it’s an advanced future. Well, we’ve had people in space continuously for 9 years. This has had far less impact on your life than one might have hoped.
A Contest
There are more, I know it. I’d like your help in finding them.
So I’m running a micrononfiction contest. Send in your 100-word-or-less nominations for miracles that didn’t quite make it. There are prizes and everything. Click here for all the details.
This should be fun.
Update: To be clear, don’t post your ideas here. Instead check out the details over here which tells you where to send your entry. Remember! Quality of writing also counts!

Thanks to those of you who wrote such nice reviews! Please, let your friends know if you liked the book - I've gotta sell a lot more of these (like, 2000 altogether) before I can prove myself to a distributor. I'm about a fifth of the way there. Mmmmmm...a fifth:)
