Which (of the author's favorite) rock song are you?

Empty Spaces
SR71-Empty Spaces

Your Lyrics

I'm not afraid to
go backwards and fix what we broke
My gaze falls behind, you make desire seem so easy
I hold off sleep, it's so silent without you here
Don't give up now, it would all be for nothing

I believe in second chances
I believe the years forget

Let me fill these empty spaces
Better late than never / Stay forever
Let me fill this empty space
There's always room for one more mistake

Can you feel that
I think we're moving in the right direction
I was someone else then
I'd take it back if you would let me

We were never this close when we were young
Every night I whisper your name at the top of my
lungs


Which of my favorite rock love songs are you?
brought to you by Quizilla



I have no idea who this group is or how the song sounds like, but the words sound promising. It sounds very optimistic...and I like that....for a change.

...and for the record, here's what Quizilla has to say about me after taking the Quiz:
You have been down this road before, but you have grown up a lot and you are willing to give it another try. You believe in second chances, just don't try to relive the past. Fix whatever went wrong the first time.

All in a day's work

I found these comments on one module I was working on the other week:




She must have been having a really good day...

To cull or not to cull?



What happens when the presence of one organism threatens another? A big issue in Kangaroo Island
in South Australia is the growing Koala population and the decreasing manna gums which support birds and insects indigenous to Australia. Environmentalists are now calling for a Koala cull as the fastest,
most cost efficient way to reduce fur count in an effort to save other animals not found elsewhere.

Its sounds like a really controversial dilemma, especially when Australia prides itself in taking care of their animals. I think the fact that Koalas are so adorably cute make the issue messier. Who, in their right minds would agree to shooting them in the first place? Politicians who would allow it risk losing votes, environmentalists who would agree would be questioned, and parents who nod their heads risk losing
their kids respect ("My mommy hates Koalas!!")

Read more about it here.
