14 April 2013


Birthdays
Abigail Breslin b. 1996
Sarah Michelle Gellar b. 1977
Adrien Brody b. 1973
Anthony Michael Hall b. 1968
Tim Roth b. 1961

A good group of actors here from genre film and TV, but as a fan of Joss Whedon, the choice for the picture slot was not difficult. Many happy returns to all the birthday boys and girls.
 

Prediction: In 2013, there will be all sizes of cars available, including extremely small commuter cars.

Predictor: David Turner, Ford Motor Company in the article L.A. 2013 published in the Los Angeles Times Magazine, published 3 April1988



Reality: This one was right on the money. People are opting for smaller and more fuel efficient cars, the best known of the truly tiny being the Smart Car. Our predictor is from Ford, and the smallest of the Ford models I can find information about is the Ford Fiesta, which has a model that is lighter than either the Toyota Yaris or the Fiat 500, though still several hundred pounds heavier that this little baby.

Looking one day ahead... INTO THE FUTURE!


We return to one of my favorite sources, The OMNI Future Almanac published in 1982, who tells us what jobs will be obsolete by 2010 or earlier.


Join us then... IN THE FUTURE!
