On a recent trip to the Tokyu Hands store in Shibuya, I was mesmerized by a flying Doraemon toy. This clerk was doing a demonstration, and I very much enjoyed it. Doraemon is, as
this page explains:
a cat-like robot from the 22nd century of the future. His favorite food is dorayaki, a sweet bean paste filled bun, and his birthday is 2112-9-3 he is also know by the name 'Ding-dong'. He weighs 129.3 kg, is 129.3 cm tall, can leap 129.3 cms in the air and can run 129.3 km per hour. He is afraid of mice and hates rats, his ears were eaten off by rats. He has a fourth-dimensional pocket on his abdomen from which he can take out many amazing tools.
Kate noticed, and got me the toy for Chanukka. Here are some pictures of me flying it in our back yard (It only takes 9 batteries!).

Hey, no fair! It won't be Hanukkah here for a number of hours...
Michael and Kate, that is the coolest flying cat-like robot toy I have ever seen. Love, Jenny
What's with the 129.3?
You know, if some countries had a UAV of that size and technological advancement, it would be cause for war.
Can it be used to deliver WMD?
