According to my nifty calendar today is National Fast Food Day. I admit to being a fan of fast food; cheeseburgers and fries are good eating, so I'm all for celebrating these lunch choices. Thinking about fast food though has me thinking about other fast things and how much we expect speed in our lives. We heat things in the microwave, tap our fingers impatiently if it takes longer than a few seconds to access email or Facebook, expect instant light when we flip a switch. You get the idea. I'm sure you can add to the list. Earlier today I saw a segment on TV (which I expect to turn on instantly when I push a button on the remote) about pizza being delivered by a drone. They didn't say how long it took to get the drone delivered pizza from point a to point b so I'm not sure if that qualifies as fast food. It sounds like an interesting way to deliver pizza but some questions arise. Will the pizza be in good shape when it's delivered? Will it still be hot? Will it be the pizza that I ordered? Will the drone expect a tip? Oh wait, those are the same questions I wonder about now when I order a pizza.
