When I grow up, I wonder if people will be more afraid to cry then they are to die.

Will I be able to see a rainbow in the smoke filled sky? Will there be any trees alive? If not then how will the planet survive? Will the internet have a website @ www.lifetimeairsupply.com?

When I grow up if I got bored and had nothing to do and my son and I built a canoe would the water that use to be blue be so polluted it would give us the flu? Will $1,000.00 be enough for a shoe? Will I have to be like you? Letting money make every decision for everything I do?

When I grow up will the existence of dolphins and whales just be a story I tell? Starting with once upon a time ending with where did we fail? Will the truth be illegal to sell?

When I grow up will anyone be on the news for something besides killing? Will those drug dealers still be standing in front of my building? Will they even learn how to Love? Or stay afraid of the feeling? Will TV and music videos still raise America's children?

When I grow up will innocent kids still be warmfully touched? Will students go home in a bullet proof bus? What if children had no one to trust? That would hurt me so much and I wanna be happy

When I grow up!

It's a movie about nuclear war. Really funny stuff actually. IMDb rates it as the #15 movie of all time.
