When I was a tyke in San Francisco, The Smothers Brothers, Mort Sahl, and Bill Cosby were always in town performing on a street somewhere called Broadway. When I was old enought to find my way there, everything had turned into strip joints.

I think that there was a promise made to a lot of us (in our imaginations) about what the future whould be. I thought I would live in the Monsanto House of the Future and get around on a hover scooter like on Fireball XL-5. I've made do with a Honda Insight and an ipod.
