It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a...tacocopter?
March 27, 2012
The web has been abuzz lately with the possibility of a new form of food delivery service; by miniature, GPS-guided helicopter.
The organization, called Tacocopter, claims it plans to offer direct-to-household delivery of tacos and " all varieties of maize-based foods" to the San Francisco Bay area.
Unfortunately, the entire thing seems to be a hoax. But that hasn't stopped the inspiring popularity of the idea, which now has people calling for modification of FAA regulations to legalize such devices should they one day become viable.
Sorry guys, don't expect a helicpter to be dropping your Barberito's on your front door via parachute any time soon. Still, I remain hopeful that a more streamlined, convenient, and fast delivery system like this could be developed in the future. Got my fingers crossed for pneumatic tubes.

Pop Addict Book Review: "Facing the Music and Living to Talk About It" by Nick Carter
HancockAs a huge Backstreet Boys fan, I was little perplexed on reading Nick Carter?s book. It?s not like reading a book about Elvis Presley or The Beatles. I didn?t live through those moments. I didn?t see them in person. But as someone who has followed Nick?s career since I became a fan in 1998, not just in the Backstreet Boys, but as a solo artist, I?ve always thought we had a lot in common besides being the same age. read more
