Whackjob's Ode to the new build and the saves soon to be gone

[Whackjob]

(Sung to the tune of Jackson Browne's "Running on Empty")

Looking out at the ground rushing under my ship

Looking back at the weeks flick by like this toggle switch

In twenty thirteen I was orbiting up at 100KM

I don't know where I'm flying to now, I'm just orbiting on

Orbiting on, running on empty

Orbiting on, flyin' blind

Orbiting on, staring into the sun

But I'm running behind

Gotta do what you can just to ensure your ship will fly

Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive

In twentry thirteen I was a hundred K high

I don't know when I start that burn that will send me by

Orbiting on, running on empty

Orbiting on, flyin' blind

Orbiting on, staring into the sun

But I'm running behind

Every world I see, everywhere I go

People need some reason to believe

I don't know about anyone but me

If it takes all night, that'll be a fine flight

If I can get you to fuel me before I leave

Looking out at the ground rushing under my ship

I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this ship feels

I look around for the friends that I used to turn to, to pull me through

Looking into their eyes I see them flying too

Orbiting on, running on empty

Orbiting on, running blind

Orbiting on, running into the sun

But I'm running behind

AEIA Mk3, you really tempt me

You know the way you look so weird

I'd love to stick around

But I'm combing my beard

Orbiting on

You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find

Running behind

Staring into the sun but I'm running behind

/See yas in the new build

//I'll have the good coffee brewin'

Absolutely. I have ideas for the AEIA Mk5 that I'm waiting to put together for the new build. But still tinkering with the Mk4, which did achieve orbit just this morning

Heh, I like your song. Good job mate.

Seeing that last image brought a tear to my eye.

Whackjob, your name is whackjob for a reason eh? I must say though, nice song and the last picture is stunning but... How does your CPU not melt and burn up with all those pieces? XD

Honestly, I don't know. I have an old Alienware M17x laptop. It was the highest proc I could get at that time, but it's one of those "extreme core 2 quad duo" things. Not even an i3.

Can I have it? lol

Can I have it? lol

I'm thinking of a number between one and no.

I just like the pictures.....

The songs' not bad either.

P.S. Maybe this should be in fanworks?
