I like dat!" And she did that thing with her hips. "--Could get j'you off in about three seconds." "Charo that might be prolonging it." On the Tomorrow show Tom Snyder constantly interrupts; he seems to want to tell the story himself, so obliged in paraphrasing every detail for his insomniac audience. And home again the principal's friendly grumble, "Clayton, you back? Well, you've pulled round--? What you been through you can write a book." "I may." When to use can and may.
