“Hurry to the back of the ship,” said Tom sternly.

“What’s an angle over 90 degrees ?” asked Tom obtusely.

“I knew the gun wasn’t loaded,” said Tom blankly.

“I’ve injured my leg,” said Tom lamely.

“Use your own toothbrush !” Tom bristled.

“I mustn’t let the fire go out,” Tom bellowed.

“I work at a bank,” said Tom tellingly.

“Nice mirror,” Tom reflected.

“There’s someone at the front door,” Tom chimed in.

“Very well, you can borrow it again,” Tom relented.

“I’ve gone back to my wife,” was Tom’s rejoinder.

“Some you lose,” said Tom winsomely. “I just lost my flashlight” Said Tom in a delighted mannner.

“I just found out that magic is fake!” said Tom in a disenchanted way.
