One part of the 20th century that will survive into the memes and tropes of the future, as past centuries had knights in armor, cowboys on horseback, and evil nazis, is the muscle car. The big-block monsters of the pre-oil-crash-70's, are machines of savage beauty. Savage, virile, monstrous beauty. They are pure power unfettered by finesse, function in defiance of form. If other cards are swords they are great axes. If other cars are trained horses they are wild mustangs (at least the ford ones, heh). If other cars are music, they are ear-shattering noise.

Sorry, moment of lust there.

if there is, it's between a couple of sneeches, 'cause I keep expecting to see the cat in a Hat peek out from behind the windsheild.
