future?

Dear FutureMe, So it's 2003 and you're about to buy a Segway for $5 grand. You're driving a 93 Jeep and only one kids remains at home. You're itchin' to move to Idaho and out of this hellhole of Los Angeles. The president is GW Bush, his first (and only?) term, the "war on terror" proceeds in Iraq, Bin Laden nor Saddam Hussein have been captured.
