Damnit, No Hoverboard
I love forgetting about memes. I remember hearing that Cameron Crowe originally wanted to call “Almost Famous” by a much more fitting name: “Untitled.” It would have had a different cut, and before it was released in theatres, he had already announced that he would release “Untitled” on DVD. Complete with audio commentary from his mother.
The point is, I completely forgot about that. I first heard about that two years ago; this Tuesday it is being released. Insert happy suprise here.
I’ve also tried to forget about all the Am-I-All-Your-Ikissyou!-or-Not-Are-Belong-To-Us Memes of the Internet. It’s worked, somewhat. But I also forgot about IT.
So is it revolutionary? Will it really change transportation as we know it? Why the fuck haven’t we invented flying cars yet?! Must I really release my pocket monolith and send us one step forward on the evolutionary scale? Hello McFlyyy.
I still haven’t seen video of this “Ginger” yet. That’s an exclusive that Good Morning America paid mad cash for. Maybe when I see it moving I’ll be blown away. I hope so. The excitement of a new, life-changing invention is half the fun. What a fun little meme it’s been.
But I still want a hoverboard.

And a link to a RealVideo demo. All in all, I think it’s a pretty awesome machine, even cooler that it doesn’t even have a motor/engine. It does look a little silly, though.
Ya, what the hell. I was expecting a time traveling delorian or something. Instead we get some creepy gyroscopic scooter for hyper people.
