Out here in California, we have a legend about a man who invented a board that could be used for surfing and snowboarding. He had invented many great things before, but this all-purpose board was going to be his crowning achievement. When we asked him about paddleboarding and wakeboarding, he went back to his workshop to tinker until he came up with an ingenious system of interlocking materials to seemlessly adjust board size and texture. When we asked him if we could also use it as a skateboard, he went back to his workshop and tinkered until he came up with a retractable wheel system to make it a skateboard too. When we asked him if he could make a hoverboard, he disappeared into his workshop for an entire year. He finally emerged late one Tuesday afternoon to show off his invention by riding down to the local taqueria.
Those who were there to witness the spectacle still can't explain exactly what happened, and every local has a different tale. One popular telling goes like this: The board hovered above the ground as he hopped up on to it. As he pushed off, he flew down the street with an amazing speed. In no time at all he was flying toward the taqueria at a reckless pace. He overshot it and flew past, only able to grab a margarita and some extra-crispy chicken fingers as he sailed through the outdoor patio in a blur. The board started rising as it gained speed and flew out over the beach. Before anyone could figure out what was happening he was gaining altitude out over the ocean and flying off into the setting sun.
Some people say he is still surfing out among the satellites. Sometimes surfers out riding the evening waves will stop and watch a falling star thinking it is humankind's greatest inventor coming back to his home by the sea after the ride of his life.
