kind that could have been purchased in any store
selling housewares in the early part of this
century. The appearance of the flatiron is changed
merely by a row of sharp tacks glued along the
underside from top to bottom. Philadelphia-born

opinion on capital punishment is very shaky
because of the unstable facts and controversy
surrounding this topic. I personally, am caught

during the past few decades. From they way we eat
to the way we treat our criminals to the safety of
