We call today’s segment, “One Can Always Dream”. Dream #1: a convertible yacht. Imagine gliding through the seas on Riva’s Miami 88 at a speed of 34 knots. Sipping on champagne while models cavort around you in bikinis. Then, they whip out strawberries dipped in whipped cream and giggle as they “accidentally” get it on your nose. And next..”WAKE UP!! WAKE UP!!” Your alarm’s going off, you dolt. Time to go clock in. What, you actually thought this was your life?
Introducing Future Forward. Ideas yet to hit the marketplace, stewing in someone’s mind or lab somewhere. When they hit though, they’ll make our lives a little better or slightly more swagworthy. And we know everyone can use more swagginess.
This week, beer and cars. Is there really anything else better in life? Just don’t mix the two. Don’t drink and drive. Especially if you have a really expensive car.
1. Hangover Free Beer
Who doesn’t want to get plastered without next morning repercussions? Certainly not some scientists in Australia, currently working on hangover free beer. By adding electrolytes, they’ve concocted beer that both hydrates and maintains the pleasant qualities of beer, i.e. beer goggles and regretful decisions. According to the folks at Griffith University’s Health Institute, the electrolytes mean you can even drink beer after a workout to replenish lost liquid.
On styling alone, the $15 million Adastra is pretty ridiculous. Commissioned by Hong Kong shipping magnate Anto Marden, this luxury yacht was almost entirely custom-built, from its carbon fiber and Nomex honeycomb exterior to its hull made of a glass and kevlar foam. It’s quite to safe to say, if you can get a lady on this thing, you will be using the sumptuous master bedroom. Better have that Arbor Mist on ice.
