Neil is my friend

problem is I remember all things Rush. Have a younger sister who's nuts about them, a son who's crazy about them, the best man at my wedding knew all the notes, etc.

I'll tell you what, every time I bring up a hackneyed Neil quote, I will put a clever one in. So, I'm -2 in the clever depatment:

1) "eyes wide open heart undefended innocence untarnished"
2) "there's no swimming in the heavy water, no singing in the acid rain"

There - we're even.

In high school I did a variation of "2112" called "21 shelves", and how there's a space prohibition and there's an underground distillery. Alas, the main character loses the fight, and has alcohol poisoning after drinking himself silly in a cave.

I always was a little jaded.
