I made the mistake of posting in off topic about the band Rush. Bunch of tolls over there. I’m probable banned due to my replies. Oh well. It was nice while it lasted.
Stratospheric traces of our transitory flight
Trails of condensation held
In narrow paths of white
The sun is turning black
The world is turning gray
All the stars fade from the night
The oceans drain away.
Horizon to horizon
Memory written on the wind
Fading away, like an hourglass, grain by grain
Swept away like voices in a hurricane
In a vapor trail, in a vapor trail
Atmospheric phases make the transitory last
Vaporize the memories that freeze the fading past
Silence all the songbirds
Stilled by the killing frost
Forests burn to ashes
Everything is lost.
Horizon to horizon
Memory written on the wind
Washed away like footprints in the rain
Swept away like voices in a hurricane
In a vapor trail
In front of the mom and pop burger joint where my older son worked at 16-17 yo and squandered his life savings on his black corvette. I still have hope that it will turn out well someday.
I’ve had my heart set on a C8 Grand Sport. I felt as though it would happen. Many didn’t. I didn’t see the E-ray being renamed Grand Sport X. It looks like it’s pretty nice. I didn’t have any hope for a manual transmission due to the engineers comments. It would have been nice though. Not sure that it’s going to be worth the extra money, since the engine will also be in the Stingray. The wide body and other perks might make it worth it.
