Chit chat

I sit with family, friends, and acquaintances.  The topics always go to the same directions....wahhh! :(  There is no cheerful, silly convos anymore.  It is a struggle to think of something that doesn't make everyone suicidal.  It got me thinking about that Billy Joel song, We Didn't Start the Fire....

Liars, Torte reform, racism, faces scorn.
Global warming, pesticides, how much can we really hide?
Baby boomers come and go.  There's still dying in the Congo.
Diabetes rates gone high, drug companies being sly.
Car jackings, plane jackings I can't take another jacking.
Haiti gets rocked away, all the people have no say.
Bankruptcy, conspiracy, bail outs from heaven.
Drug use to ease the pain.  Prescription pills and cocaine.
Working 16 hour days we still can't pay our bills.
The doctors do not care no more.  6 minutes and out the door.
Cheating spouses, genocide, traffic and homicide.
Who knows where to start?  Somebody get a heart.
Bush haters.  Go Gators!  Obama's here to save us.
We didn't start the fire.
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it
But we're trying to fight it.
