Now we have it all. Pasta milkshakes that taste good.

Oh, and that teleportation thing.

Do you guys know we just passed thru a BLACK HOLE in space?

Very cool. I remember when they were first able to use the spooky effect (I've never heard the term entanglement before, but I'll stick with Einstein thank-you very much) on photon spins.

Unfortunately, this is hardly teleportation and I think the term is misleading even though the scientists are very clear that it's not teleporation. You have the atoms in place and 'teleport' properties...

Still, a big boost to quantum computing and maybe even networking someday!

Just think though. How cool would teleportation be?! Today I had to come home early from work and watch the football on my own cos I was going out straight after blah-de-blah. Now imagine if I could have gone to the pub with everyone else, then teleported home saving on the half-hour journey and thus allowing me to go out as well.

One day, folks, we'll have teleportation and flying cars.

You heard about those jackets you can wear which make the part covering you up invisible? You can actually see through the person. It's like a cloaking device. I'm not kidding.

Yeah - a student in Japan also made those a few years ago at least. Pretty cool shit.

I think they have been trying it on tanks and blimps.

But would you really NEED a car if you could teleport?

Eh, who am I kidding? If the technology existed and I had the money, I'd definitely buy both a flying car and a personal teleporter. I don't want to have to eat my meals in pill form, though.

Nah, I like something to chew on. I do fancy a Back To The Future-esque hoverboard though...

I'm sure you'll eventually be able to buy a hoverboard at your local Toys "R" Us. And education pills will be sold at the grocery store, one aisle over from the monogamy genes.

I am on my mate's PC, it's a laptop and it has one of those crap pads instead of a mouse. They are not as easy to use. Especially when your fingers get sweaty.
