It is Saturday morning and I decide to walk to the Oil City Public Library‚ I am walking across the bridge and I stumble across several used syringes lying on the ground.

I arrive at the Oil City Library slightly out of breath. There are three young boys approximately 13 years of age on the computers. I mumble jokingly‚ but outloud‚ "Dreads of

Halloween night. Halloween was one of the scariest days of the year. Little children would knock on the door of each house‚ saying ‘Trick-or-Treat’‚ asking politely for the adults to put candy into their bags. I was finally a teenager and was afraid of nothing.

during the Second World War‚ outside of war-period circumstances many of his virtues become vices. No one in history has ever‚ will ever‚ or should ever‚ be labeled with absolute titles such as ’good’ or ’evil’. Most people‚ especially prominent historical figures‚ reside in the grey area.
