Terrible Towel

An Eerie Gray “Blood is thicker than water” is a very commonly used proverb. It portrays water as ties between friends. Blood being the bond within a family.

The paper towels were first weighed to find out how heavy each of the towels were and then this amount was added to the…

know that you may use up to 57 sheets of paper towels every day, and that includes toilet paper? Crazy to think about. The problem I am trying to solve is; Does the type of liquid affect how much the paper towel takes in? Paper towels are a necessity for mothers and for kids trying to hide spills they have made.

the audience to highlight the foreshadowing he is talking about. Lastly, Hamlet is once again drowning in pity saying that he must break his heart and keep his mouth shut. I would be sure to play up the self pity because Hamlet is going through a terrible tragedy in his life and Hamlet is the type of person that would tweet about how bad of a day he is having if the only thing that went wrong was that the barista got his Starbucks order…
