IN: I switched to Mac with the advent of the Mac Mini . We ' ve followed the same pattern from the beginning . We buy a desktop and then the notebook most similar in specs and performance to the desktop .
What may happen if we get a Windows desktop ?

OUT: We would get a Windows notebook .

IN: " Uh-- " His foot catches , his ankle hyperflexed and twinging , and he tips sideways , arms windmilling in empty air as he lurches into the bookcase . " Ow ! " Shelves press hard dents into his arm , Don snickers infuriatingly , and Charlie grumble as he steadies himself . " Ow , dammit .
How would you describe Charlie ?

OUT: Charlie is clumsy .

IN: The Tuesday night aerobics classes at another facility have apparently fallen through . I had it on my planner that the first class was last Tuesday , but I never heard back from either my boss or the woman who tried to subvert me and get me to teach for free , so I blithely erased it and skipped along with my life . Tuesday nights Keatsfan is gone until about 10p , teaching a late class , so I get a ton done precisely because I do n't have to teach . Last night we watched all but the final ep of State of Play .
What may happen after finding out that the aerobics class has fallen through ?

OUT:
I do n't have to worry about going to it now .
