Ghost Of The Nebula!

The Horsehead NebulaGhost Of The Nebula!

I used to own a bicycle that I affectionately called Karelia, after the Mastodon song.  It was this sleek, badass bike, all black, except for the pedals, which were blue.  It had these bullhorn handlebars that made it look like a killing machine.  I rode that bike for over three years.  When on the road, it became an extension of me.  Kind of like a car.  You get used to things you ride.  I bet the same applies for horses.  Where was I going with this?  Oh yeah, Karelia was stolen last September.  I mean, I didn't cry or anything, but it seriously sucked.  They cut right through the lock.  By then, Karelia was called Bikey, simply because it was easier, and more catchy.  I have a new bike, now, and it's just as fine of a ride, but nothing'll replace the old one.  Not for a while.

This Horsehead Nebula goes out to you, Karelia, or Bikey, whatever.  If you weren't an inanimate object, I'd be hoping that, wherever you are, you're happy.  But you are an inanimate object, probably disassembled and sold for cheap, which makes all of this kind of wierd.
