The Arby's manager told police Anderson jumped on the front counter and demanded food. The man then jumped off the counter and allegedly grabbed the manager and forced her towards a wall. The manager told police the man then grabbed a hand full of bacon and chicken and walked out of the business.
"He was possibly under the influence of some sort of narcotic or intoxicant or suffering from some type of break with reality. He did mention that he is from four years in the future and that is how people will get food during that period of time," Knight said.

I guess Stephen King kinda sorta ripped of this passage from The Time Machine for his novella 'The Langoliers'.
When plane passengers end up a little in the past everything around them is decaying. When they zoom a bit too far into the future everything is clean and fresh and bright and a bit dizzying.

There’s actually a sequel out to The Time Machine. It’s called ‘The Time Ships’ by Stephen Baxter and it is actually pretty good, IMHO.

No time-traveler would ever steal or even eat at Arby’s. They would know their gourmet history and avoid it at all costs.

SOYLENT GREEN! The future of food under a Hillary regime.

“There’s actually a sequel out to The Time Machine. It’s called ‘The Time Ships’ by Stephen Baxter and it is actually pretty good, IMHO.”
I agree.
It’s the only one of his I’ve read, don’t like to commit to sci-fi series. Are there any others of his you would recommend?

To: treetopsandroofs
No. Sorry. That’s the only thing of his I’ve read. But I thought ‘The Time Ships’ was pretty clever.

The future must be very bleak indeed.

The future must not belong to those who would slander bacon.
