Clever Sayings

A friend of mine sent me these sayings:

• “I can’t believe I ate that whole pineapple!” Jack said dolefully.

• “Too bad I lost the toothpaste,” Jill said crestfallen.

• “We don’t have a home-run hitter,” Dan said ruthlessly.

• “That’s the last time I pet a lion,” Anne said offhandedly.

• “Just dig another ditch around the castle,” said Yan remotely.

• “My steering wheel won’t turn,” Sally said straightforwardly.

• “I shouldn’t sleep on railroad tracks,” Ned said beside himself.
