signs of our times

The second generation of astronauts takes to the skies while flying saucers lift off on Earth and giant spider robots prepare for world domination...

Well, the saucers and the space tourists might not leave the ground until 2011, so this is really a news-flash from those times, but the spiders are real. Check them out! I'd love to march through the parklands on my daily mail run astride one of those things.

You wouldn't get far on the first one. It would take all day to get to the corner shop.

Unfortunate photo of Google co-founder Sergey Brin in that first link. Can just imagine the dialogue surrounding that shot:

"Mr Brin, what inspired you to start Google?"

"The usual motivator: compensation."

"Compensation?"

"You see, I have a very small penis but couldn't afford to buy a red Ferrari, so I decided to build the world's largest search engine and data bank instead."

"Er..."

"Seriously, it is only this big."

"Um ... and now you can afford a red Ferrari as well?"

"Screw the Ferrari, I'm going into space! Mwoah ha ha ha."

And parking would be a bitch, unless you could get some of those new gecko-feet pads and just leave it up a wall.
