Three Historic Events I've Experienced

I don't like to rank "most" but these are three events that I have sharp memories of where I was, how I heard, and what I was doing.

I share on Facebook and now I have a Tumblr, which I suggest you follow/subscribe to because you can stay updated on Gwyneth Paltrow’s salvia. [...]
