gone hyperspace

"I think we've gone hyperspace," I told my friend AL on the phone today, and she didn't know what I was talking about.  "It's a video game thing," I told her.  But I don't think that's precisely true.

"Outside of normal space," Ming said when I asked him about hyperspace.  "Really really fast."

Then there's the famous Beastie Boys lyric "and if you play Defender I could beat you hyperspace."  I love that line.

I think of it as a place where the old rules don't matter.
