January 21, 2025: The Jetson's

We officially live in the age of the Jetson’s. For those of a certain age, you get the reference. Fun fact: some die-hard fans, after much research, believe that George Jetson was born in 2022. Which makes him three.

But need more evidence that flying cars are near? Tonight I went to a Mexican restaurant and got served my meal by a robot. No joke. A little bot with wheels, blasting mariachi music, cruised to my table carrying our hot plates. Turning to leave, it chirped, “Bye!” then rolled off again.

Uh… whoa. The Jetson era, indeed.
