• 200X Decade in Review... in Limmerick!

  Star Wars was once the trilogy of kings
  But now midichlorians, a cheesy Anakin, and things
      Made for an awful ride
      But look on the bright side
  Peter Jackson gave us Lord of the Rings

  The International Space Station
  Deserves Morgan Freeman narration
      It's up in the sky
      Visible to the eye
  Soon a holiday destination

  The rule of Clinton then Bush then Obama
  I'm sure there was no end to the drama
      But why should I care when
      I was in grade school then
  Nobody cared about that DC melodrama

  The bubble had long since burst
  Internet biz feared the worst
      But with Facebook, Google, and Wikipedia
      Xanga, MySpace, and all of that video media
  None can quench people's thirst

  I could write about how the towers fell
  Or how the War on Terror is Hell
      But if you know me
      You already see
  There are no funny stories to tell

  It turns out there was no Y2K bug
  So Microsoft released their Vista lug
      The people did cry
      Microsoft didn't try
  So now they offer 7 and a hug

  A war on Christmas? When did that begin?
  Whoever said "happy holidays" is a sin?
      The retailers do it
      There's no malice to it
  It's just a capitalist thing
