Elvina (fanning herself): I do declare! What was it we were speaking of before Chad Ripplechest came strolling across the veranda of our southern plantation?

Regina (whispering into the telephone): When they said they'd send a guy over to fix the cable, I wasn't expecting Chad Ripplechest. My panties are moistening!

After reading "There is a lot of uncertainty around financial transactions and investments right now, and the wrong decision could result in dire consequences" in his daily Horrorscope, Edward climbed back into bed, pulled the sheets over his head and remained there for the rest of the day.

Edward only had enough gas in his car to get to the gas station but was not sure if he had enough money in his account to pay for gas. His cell phone service had been cut off because his payments were in arrears, and since the only way he could be sure he had enough money (to pay for gas) would be to call the bank, he felt it best to hide in bed and hope his horoscope for tomorrow was more positive.
