In my downstairs lair, out of the corner of my eye, I can see every car and truck (food supply to the nursing home across the street) that passes my window. There aren't many, because we live on a back street, almost like a cul de sac (bottom of the bag). So every time a Fed Ex van or UPS truck stops, I race to the door to beat the driver before he rings the bell.
It recently dawned on me that everything could be delivered to my doorstep. No need to go shopping. No need to drive anywhere. It's Nirvana! I would never have to leave home. Just punch the right computer keys, wait several days and, Voila, everything shows up. After a few more technological breakthroughs, there may be no need to get out of bed.
