Has the world gone mad!

“Is this the end of the world. Mass graves found in Russia, War in the Middle east, Floods, Riots, What is the Deal here.

Who among us is Christian? Do you think the bible speaks to this?

IS THE SKY FALLING!”

“Friday the 13th. Get ahold of yerself, fooh!”

“Someone save my soul, quick!”

“Hey WC, are you trying to win some sort of thread starting competition?”

“I kinda miss the days when we had nuclear bomb drills in school and the Civil Defense organization had a bigger budget than the local Police.

I think it is time we increase our provocation and imtimidation of the Chinese Communists. I am not buying anymore chop sticks or fortune cookies.”

“Actually WC I personally dont think the world has gone mad. Its always been an awful brutal place,full of despair,misery,genocide,rape and horror. Its just different now cause Ted Turner gave us cnn so we can watch all of the afformentioned maladies from our recliners while sippin a long island ice tea and smoking a marlboro and say " aw shucks there is more death in africa today,and more ethnic cleansing in the Balkans...hey honey lets go out to dinner tonite". Its just another TV show without a happy ending ,that is until Oprah and Larry King drag out the victims and give us a good moral lashing and burden us with some guilt for our place of birth. The only repentance is to pin a ribbon on your chest (pick a color depending on what the misery of the week is) and watch Tony Danza,Rosie "fat pants" O'Donnel and Richard "the gerbil" Gere talk all righteous about the plight of tibet.

No... things are okay. And by okay I mean all screwed up as usual.”

“Well said!”

“Yes Indeed Hyper. I understand that it was someone(s) in the US armed services who came up with the term "SNAFU." Whoever it was, was sharin' a great deal of wisdom.”

“nothing has changed, we just have CNN to tell us about it as it happens.”

“Well said! Again!”

“Anyway, we here at TT don't need CNN. Five minutes after any story breaks WC will have started a thread on it!”

“They are rioting in Africa,,, anybody know the words?”

“Umgauwa?”

“Mary, Didn't Paul Simon write that?”

“If he did, I would rather not here it!”

“Mary, Didn't Paul Simon write that?
bacpac

I think so--shades of 196?

I heard tell that Aristotle was bitchin that the teenagers had all gone to hell in a handbasket.

Hear it WC”

“Sheet! It's friday, and I don't care about no spellin nothing! Or dat Gramma shiznit!”

“True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go...

This desperation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Let it go

And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so to fade away

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping”

“ok, that is probably one of the greatest U2 songs of all time...

I've got Bono's wailing "to let it go" in my head now, all hope for a productive work day is lost...hmmm, I think I need new boots...”

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God...

Romans 8:28”

“And you know it's time to go
Through the sleet and fallen snow
Across the fields of morning
Lights in the Distance
Whooo, Hooo, hooo
On border land we run
MMM hmmm, MMMM

I'll me there, I'll be there
Tonight
A high road
A high road out from here
See the sky the burning rain
She will die and live again
TONIGHT!!!!

O coma way o coma way o come
O coma way you say I
mmm hmmm

TONIGHT!!!!”

“Sorry it's driving snow, not fallen snow!, oh and it's I'll be there, not I'll me there!

Damn it!”

“In a nutshell, you ain't seen nothin' yet my wild child. The major events of our future have already been shown to us.”

“...for man's been endowed?

Seen my squirrel?”

“I can't wait till Jesus comes riding in on a white horse, and says that the earth is his bride. Then he will cast Satin into the lake of stinky sulfer. But what about the Whore with all the abominations of everyone who ever had premarital sex, she gets thrown in the lake too? I think? She is a dinasour or something, maybe a T rex?”

“LOL Kleetn

Surely that squirrel, which does not hide its nuts for the winter, is a sign that the end times are nigh upon us.”

“Maybe she's T Rex.... "she's dirty sweet and she's my girl"
"Bang a gong" "Girl I'm just a jeepster for your love"

in one fell swoop, it`s the end of the human race
it could happen, if we don`t start takin` care of this-in`
shut your mouth and stop all that moanin` and pissin`
it could be lost to us all and wouldn`t that be sad
am I the only one left or has the world gone mad”

“Tin soldiers and Nixon coming,
We're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.

Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are gunning us down
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?

“Gone is the hate now and gone too is the love
nothing to quinch your thirst and more heat above
nothing to remind you of anyone, or anything you have ever known
just more relentless heat that seprates the meat from the bone
just the heat and the pain, but which one is the worst
not so much as a tiny drop of sweat to quinch your thirst
once those were my fears, when I was bad
was I dreaming or, has the world gone mad”

“I wish I could be inside of your head for a little while Big Foot”

“You`d prolly fit, it`s empty in there!LOL”

“Well I'm about to get upset
From watchin' my TV
Been checkin' out the news
Until my eyeballs fail to see
I mean to say that every day
Is just another rotten mess
And when it's gonna change, my friend
Is anybody's guess

So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
Hopin' for the best
Even think I'll go to prayin'
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
That there's no way to delay
That trouble comin' every day
No way to delay
That trouble comin' every day

Wednesday I watched the riot . . .
Seen the cops out on the street
Watched 'em throwin' rocks and stuff
And chokin' in the heat
Listened to reports
About the whisky passin' 'round
Seen the smoke and fire
And the market burnin' down
Watched while everybody
On his street would take a turn
To stomp and smash and bash and crash
And slash and bust and burn

And I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
Hopin' for the best
Even think I'll go to prayin'
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
That there's no way to delay
That trouble comin' every day
No way to delay
That trouble comin' every day

Well, you can cool it,
You can heat it . . .
'Cause, baby, I don't need it . . .
Take your TV tube and eat it
'N all that phony stuff on sports
'N all the unconfirmed reports
You know I watched that rotten box
Until my head begin to hurt
From checkin' out the way
The newsman say they get the dirt
Before the guys on channel so-and-so

And further they assert
That any show they'll interrupt
To bring you news if it comes up
They say that if the place blows up
They will be the first to tell,
Because the boys they got downtown
Are workin' hard and doin' swell,
And if anybody gets the news
Before it hits the street,
They say that no one blabs it faster
Their coverage can't be beat

And if another woman driver
Gets machine-gunned from her seat
They'll send some joker with a brownie
And you'll see it all complete

So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
Hopin' for the best
Even think I'll go to prayin'
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
That there's no way to delay
That trouble comin' every day
No way to delay
That trouble comin' every day

Hey, you know something people?
I'm not black
But there's a whole lots a times
I wish I could say I'm not white

Well, I seen the fires burnin'
And the local people turnin'
On the merchants and the shops
Who used to sell their brooms and mops
And every other household item
Watched the mob just turn and bite 'em
And they say it served 'em right
Because a few of them are white,
And it's the same across the nation
Black and white discrimination
Yellin' "You can't understand me!"
'N all that other jazz they hand me
In the papers and TV and
All that mass stupidity
That seems to grow more every day
Each time you hear some nitwit say
He wants to go and do you in
Because the color of your skin
Just don't appeal to him
(No matter if it's black or white)
Because he's out for blood tonight

You know we gotta sit around at home
And watch this thing begin
But I bet there won't be many left
To see it really end
'Cause the fire in the street
Ain't like the fire in the heart
And in the eyes of all these people
Don't you know that this could start
On any street in any town
In any state if any clown
Decides that now's the time to fight
For some ideal he thinks is right
And if a million more agree
There ain't no Great Society
As it applies to you and me
Our country isn't free
And the law refuses to see
If all that you can ever be
Is just a lousy janitor
Unless your uncle owns a store
You know that five in every four
Just won't amount to nothin' more
Gonna watch the rats go across the floor
And make up songs about being poor

Blow you harmonica, son!

“The answer my friend
Is pissin' in the wind
The answer is
Pissin' in the wind....

"The major events of our future have already been shown to us."
I reckon Nigal has been readin' the World Weekly News.

Will there be any _____ in heaven?
Oh lord before I go
I got to know!
I got to know!

If the corn won't grow
We'll rock 'n roll”

“Are things all left to chance, or is it fate
when we learn the answers, it`s always to late
am I the only one, or do you also think it strange
we learn the wrong we cause and yet refuse to change
little can anyone do, but each one helps a tad
is it already to late or, has the world gone mad”

“The world has been mad all throughout written history, and before...if ya ask me!”

“Gone is the love, it was destroyed by hate
now we know their worth and that to late
winter follows summer, pleasent was spring and fall
saved up time to enjoy them, but somehow lost it all
pride goes before a fall and the stupidity in knowing
no one thinks they are an ass, until it`s showing”

“Woah BF.”

“Biz sweetie, you`re the only one that read it!LOL

I guess I should have said that differently, but I was just playing:-)”
