We Didn't Start The Fire- 1980's to 2010

Inspired by my America In The 60's class, and Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" song, I wrote this one in class. I know, his song has more verses, but I was working under pressure. I think I did a pretty good job with monumental events, however, let me know if you think I missed something important.

Enjoy

Looking at it now, I wish  I had added something about Lady Gaga, and the Marine Barracks in the Middle East. I realize 'Terrorist Mush" isn't the best, but It was the best rhyme I could think of. Again, I welcome everybodys input.

Octoberist Post

So a lot of things on my mind, which I may or may not go into detail at length. Though Crime- definetly gonna discuss that. Homecoming- I'm starting to question my sanity. No seriously, questioning my own pyschcosis-that CAN'T be good. Anywho, just had a thought- wasn't their an October Revolution in Russia in 191-something? ( I am not up to checking more into it. I know it happened. Elsewise who they name their sub the Red October?)  ALSO- my mom's birthday is tommorrow. PANIC ATTACK!!! I'm kinda past the point of making cheesy cards for her, and since I am approaching dead broke( plus the fact that I cannot think of ANYTHING to get her...) i can't get a gift, yet I'll feel like a tool if  I do not commemerate it. Thats October for ya!
