I caught Back To The Future 2 on TV the other week and noticed all their predictions for the future - hover skateboards, flying cars, self-drying clothes, self-tying shoes, etc. And this was all in 2015! As we head into 2009, I'm wondering when all those technology boffins are going to deliver those flying cars and other wondrous inventions sci-fi movies have been promising us for the past few decades. The winning punchline was submitted by Sarah the Good Witch. There were 9 finalist punchlines chosen for this cartoon. You can read the transcript of IRC Judging Session #572 where we decided the winning punchline. This cartoon was archived on 2009-01-08.
