It's the miracle we need, the miracle...
The time will come
One day you'll see
When we can all be friends...
The lightning flashed as angels
Rode firey chargers through the clouds
That answer scared me into tears
And all the grown ups laughed out loud
Now the years roll on
Tired voices have all gone
Now they ride their thunder through the heavens
There's a world in every drop of rain
Embracing oceans sweep us home again
Come along with me
Come along with me
Seek the truth
You shall not find another lie
They say for every living thing
There's a guide up in the sky
That helps you pass from world to world
So you never really die
Then with scythe and cloak
Death comes waltzing to your side
As those visions pass you ask
If there was meaning to your life
As you strain to hear the answer
Spirits sing and devils fiddle
As he bends to whisper in your ear
He leaves you one more riddle
Oh the answers lie beyond the pain
All the questions in our minds
We surely ask in vain
Come along with me
Come along with me
Seek the truth
And you shall find another life
Now my life is like a storm
Growing stronger everyday
Like the unrelenting wind
That comes to blow our lives away
So I live each day like I know that it's my last
If there is no future there can be no past
Now I know those answers never meant a thing
And with instant that I breathe I feel the joy that life can bring
Come along with me
Come along with me
Seek the truth
You shall not find another lie
Come along with me
Come along with me
Seek the truth
And you shall find another life
My burn has pretty much healed up. For a few days there it would go away during the night then go white again during the day, weird. Maybe the blood vessel connections still were a bit dodgy.
Did I ever tell you the tale of the orchid and the wasp? It's a favourite among biologists. In south-west Australia there is an orchid, which is pollinated by a particular species of wasp. This is possibly the only occurance of cross-kingdom mimicry known. The orchid's flowers resemble a female wasp, and it has managed to produce a chemical remarkably similar to the pheremone a receptive female wasp emits. Well of course the male goes nuts over this and flies down to the orchid and tries to take off with the "female" as they do (mating takes place during the "nuptial flight"). Of course it's a flower and attached to the plant so his struggles cause the flower to bounce up and down and the pollen sacs are shot down and stick to the males back, they will come off again on the next flower he attempts to mate with.
Pretty darn clever on the orchid's part. I'm not sure how it affects the wasps reproduction.
