The Town Scryer is a mixed bag of humor, socio-political observations and ephemera from the perspective of a eclectic Pagan veteran of the counter-culture.

Lunch From Above!


I love the smell of tacos in the morning!

A new company is hoping to launch in the near future that will deliver tacos fresh to your home or workplace by drone helicopter! The start-up is planned for the Silicon Valley area where people will be more likely welcome our new robot overlords. The idea is this: You place your order from your smartphone, the computer at Tacocopter logs in your co-ordinates, lunch is loaded on a drone much like the one pictured above, and in no time at all, lunch from above!

     No word yet on whether the drones will play "Ride of the Valkyries" when they deliver.

    At the moment Tacocopter is having trouble getting their business off the ground though. The FAA has declined to license the commercial use of drones in urban environments. A bit ironic when the government is asserting the right to use drones to assassinate US citizens without due process, n'est-ce pas?
