strong sorry thinking
Do you think you could put that boot back on?" he added mildly. "The window can only let in a limited ammount of fresh air and your socks are a tough ripe, to put it mildly." Oh, sorry!" said Horace, tugging the riding boot back on over his sock. Now that Halt mentioned it, he was aware of a rather strong odor in the room.
sorry apology agony
Will looked up angrily, shaking his head in disbelief. Will you shut up? he said tautly. Horace shrugged in apology. 'I'm sorry' he said, I sneezed. A person can't help it when they sneeze. Perhaps not. But you could try to make it sound a little less like an elephant trumpeting in agony; Will told him.
sorry thinking apologizing
Without thinking, [Will] spoke. 'Halt? Are you awake?' 'No.' The ill humor in the one-word reply was unmistakable. 'Oh. Sorry.' 'Shut up.' He pondered whether to apologize again and decided this would go against the instruction to shut up, so remained silent.

We will eventually have this place top notch.
food good sounds waste
It sounds like a good idea so as not to waste food.
arm ball focused mentally motions target throw time totally
They are totally opposite. The arm motions are completely different. Mentally though, you've got to be there in both. You've got to be focused. You can't just go out and throw the ball anywhere. Every time you throw the ball, you've got to have a target and be focused on that target.
princess home thinking
Now for God's sake, will you two start behaving like a princess and a Courier?" Halt told them. "If you don't, I'll have to think about sending Will home.' 'Me?' Will said, his voice breaking into a high-pitched squeak of indignation. 'What's it got to do with me?' 'It's all your fault!' Halt shouted irrationally.
cutting comforting half
I'll be getting you for this,' Halt had told him as he dabbed the diguisting mixture on the worst of the cuts. 'That soot is filthy. I'll probably come down with half a dozen infections.' Probably,' Horace had replied, distracted by his task. 'But we'll only need you for today.' Which was not a very comforting thought for Halt.
bowl confidence gave good last reason top weekend
Last weekend gave us confidence that when we bowl like we can, we're a very good team. If we do that again, I see no reason why we can't be in the top 10.
change found good line stayed
I just found the line I was comfortable with and stayed with it. I'm left-handed, so the lanes don't change much. It was a good day.
figured game hits
I figured if we got the first game it would keep us going. The hits and everything.
came china cotton demand exports good increase news seen surprise
The increase in U.S. exports came as a surprise and it's good news. Export demand for U.S. cotton is very good and encouraging to the market. The U.S. exports are to go to China as seen in their increase in imports.
dark land water
I wonder," she said. "Does this castle have a moat?" A group of servants were busy emptying the privy buckets into the moat when they were startled by a sudden drawn-out cry. They looked up in time see a scarlet-and-gold clad figure sail out of a first-story window, turn over once and then land with an enormus splash in the dark, rancid waters. They shrugged and went back to work.
luck betrayed would-be
It would be unthinkably bad luck to be betrayed by a rumbling stomach.
