Threads at the crime scene indicated that the murderer wore gold lamé.

Darling, that's the whole point, since the gold lamé threads at the crime scene were from a gown Lord Poofle stole from his wife's closet (not realizing that lamé was passé), in an attempt to pin the murder on his haughty wife so that he could run off with Effie Picklesworth, a curvaceous "model" from the East End.

"Events" is such a broad word that it can cover everything from sneezes to nuclear attacks.

Coyotes are said to be flourishing in New York these days, but I have yet to see one.

Asunder were the torn remains of his pride; the lion looked up at the hunters and, as hard as he could, roared.

Roared as loud as he could, but the Cowardly Lion still knew something was lacking.
