It’s time to celebrate the Christmas/ Chanukah/ Kwanza/ Festivus Holiday season, so here at Cinema Blend we’re enjoying Twelve Days of Christmas. Yes, we know traditionally the “12 days” start with Christmas, but we plan on being celebrated out by that time, so we’re pushing the twelve days leading up to the holiday.

Here in Blend Tech, we’re celebrating with a geeky wish list. Sadly, these are gifts we’d love to have, but will only be able to wish about since they aren’t likely to exist anytime soon. That’s the joy of science-fiction and fantasy, imagining the future, it’s just a shame this stuff isn’t real yet.

Let’s not even begin to think about the nightmare that would occur if we actually had the flying car make its debut. I mean, traffic is already a nightmare with people driving on established roads. Give them the freedom of the skies, and the wrecks you encounter on your daily drive look like sundaes by comparison.

And yet, we want the flying car. I want to avoid all the lefts and rights I have to make on the average day, winding through back-roads to try and get to my destination a little quicker. Let me fly over the hills, valleys, trees, and houses that have been placed between me and my destination.

So what would you pay to have a flying car? Kevin Smith gave us a glimpse of the possible price:
