Pondering the Future

Our travels continue, and I am writing this while sitting here in the fake-outdoor space of our San Francisco hotel. The trip has been fantastic so far and you'll hear all about it on Six Pack #53. You did listen to #52, our San Diego adventure already, right? Good.

Anyway, I'm sitting here amongst these plastic trees in an imaginary outdoor space, and while it is actually quite nice, I keep thinking that this is what every day will be like in 2034. You know, as if we'll have destroyed the environment and killed off most of real nature, so we'll have to be indoors all the time with the fake remnants of what once was. Kind of like the movie "The Island", though I at least hope we don't all have to wear those white jump suits, just so monotonous.

Fortunately though, it isn't 2034 yet and we're off to downtown San Francisco to check out the scene, meet people and do a special Six Pack Happy Hour with Equality California. If you're in the area swing by Lookout Bar from 5-9 and join us for a special Six Pack cocktail. I don't know what's in it, but I fully stand by it.

And will fully drink it...

The future will be a remake of Parts: The Clonus Horror??

For decades now, any depiction of the future inevitably involved jumpsuits, and yet they never seem to become popular. For that matter, where's my personal jet pack? By the 21st century, we were all supposed to be zipping around in them. The future has been pretty much a gyp.

Meet Dave Rubin. . . his new plaid shirt. . .swooping hairline. . .among trees. .

Oh, wait, I got Rubinville mixed up with "The Jetsons." Disregard.

Dave: You look a little sleepy in this pic or maybe it's your pondering face that has me confused a bit. Enjoy the west coast.
