I loved Dragonflight. Dragonriding (now Skyriding) was a game-changer. I was a fan of the story progression, and never got bored the whole expansion through.

Instead of album covers, my car's display shows me the most random photos.

"Learn to Fly"? Here's a blurry 180x180 image of the Foo Fighters on a red carpet sometime around 2013.
