What Will History Say About Today’s America?by Brian Trent
Imagine what America’s legacy will look like in a history book some 500 years hence.

She didn’t need a doctor’s prescription or even a note from her parents. Any druggist would sell to her without batting an eye; he would assume she was on Related posts: Tulip fest, Sharks radio
