You’ve Got Mail… For your face

In this age where speed and ease of data transmission is no longer a luxury, but indeed a necessity, one might wonder what area of commerce or industry might next benefit from the efficiency and convenience that is the by-product of this speed and ease. I personally wonder when we’ll be able to send a face-punch via e-mail, or via these awesome-sounding digital packets. Imagine the possibilities… Is the fool who took your juicebox in kindergarten living far away, farther than even the most awesome air-kick could reach? Send him an e-mail, then. To illustrate,

To: Your face

From: My foot

Subject: Heee-yaaaaaa!!!!

And if the pitiful fool’s interest is piqued (and why wouldn’t it be, body parts are communicating), he’ll open the mail. I don’t have to tell you what’s coming next. But I will. Heee-yaaaaaa!!!!

All this may sound like a nonsensical pipe dream, but it’s really hard to say what’s possible these days, or whether there’s really anything outside the realm of possibility. I’m still blown away by the fact that they let you order your own bag of custom-colored M&M’s. It truly is a golden age of technological progress.
