Could the world use a good kick in the pants?
I sure think it could. And I know just who can give it the kick it needs: Girls. How do I know? I've lived it. My mom was 19 when I was born, the summer after her first year in college. She had wanted to be a nurse practitioner, but stopped after another year of school ...
