My parents own six rental houses around St. Cloud‚ so the majority of my summers are at these houses‚ fixing things‚ mowing‚ and remodeling.

I remember walking over to my father’s silver pick-up

The idea of feigning madness is also apparent throughout Shakespeare’s Hamlet. The tragic character puts on an act after he is told of his father’s murder‚ perhaps

Hamlet‚ he was believed to have feigned his madness. I believe he did this as a way to get away with murder. The entire time Hamlet knew what was coming for him if he succeeded at getting revenge for his father’s murder. Overtime‚ Hamlet begins to cross the line into madness. Ophelia‚ also feigned her madness just to get Hamlet’s head back in the game. She was on a mission to figure out why Hamlet has gone mad. Hamlet’s method to have feigned his madness may have been to have a reason to get away

The first is to fill in five boxes with numbers that fit the criteria: each box has a number‚ and the digit that is placed in each box must be the amount of times that number appears in the whole five digit number formed by the boxes.
