You could write about if the things in history hadn't how different our couldn't been. [ limeslushie2010's advice column | Ask limeslushie2010 A Question ]

You could probably write a lot based on that. Plus, did any of your ancestors come to America through Ellis Island or on the Mayflower? Imagine how different your life would be if they hadn't! [ LM's advice column | Ask LM A Question ]
