                                                           /ˈsōSHəl/

                       1.  Leave the house. Do not forget the champagne.
                       2.  Do not leave the house. You have not read the news today. You will not know what
                          conversation to make.
                       3.  Leave the house. Bring your prized stuffed-mushrooms as a conversation piece. (Yes,
                          your great-grandmother wrote the recipe. Yes, during WWII. She tucked it between
                          food stamps. Yes, it is delicious. Swallow the strange feeling that you should, perhaps,
                          have read the news after all.)

                                                             jus·tice

                                                            ˈjəstəs/

                       1.  The man who murdered his children in cold-blood after Sunday church certainly
                          deserves the death sentence.
                       2.  His wife, who had no knowledge of his pre-meditated crime, should not be charged
                          as his accomplice.
                       3.  Certainly, capital punishment is a nuanced issue. As is racial profiling, the glass
                          ceiling, and tax loopholes. It is most definitely not a subject for the dinner table.

                                               Please use the word in a sentence.
