I wish it were more concrete.

More so, he blamed himself.

As if on cue, an old car with more rust than clear metal chugged to a stop at the dollar store.

Some might be that old, but to remember back then, they'd be more'n ninety.

You're doing this so the bees will be more interested in certain flowers?

Quinn joined us, looking more interested than earlier.

We agreed the tests were finished for the day but mellowed by wine; we spent two more evening hours summarizing our findings.

Sunday was more productive than Saturday.

Howie was to remain in Massachusetts, at least for a few more days, working with Quinn and Martha.

Maybe now that our newlyweds are in town he'll be more reasonable.

We nodded our approval and awaited more revelations.

He's never out more than ten to twenty minutes at a time and three or four sessions make a heavy day.

That's why more current dates are more important and far easier to verify.

You have a right to more.

We still have more tests we could run but up to twenty four to forty eight hours; I'm pretty close on both time and location.

There must be many more like Timothy Burton.

Can we do one more before you leave?

Betsy was more than eager to comply.

I choose the graves of my little ones far more carefully.

The more I thought about it, the more I was convinced of the incredible scope of Howie's gift.

We agreed there'd be no more sessions unless all five of us were together.

I became more frustrated with each passing minute.

When the first two tries proved unsuccessful, tempers frayed even more.

I'm on the road once more with only my memory of sweet little Marcia for company.

I have to be even more careful.

Forget anything much more than forty-eight hours old and anything where a nearly exact time of abduction isn't known.

I owe you more than you could ever know.

It seems you or your associates have a unique ability in these situations... more than unique; unprecedented.

This life; is it more important to each you than what you are accomplishing with this ability?

While Betsy loved her position, she was far more enchanted with our success and would adopt it as a full time venture in a minute.

I thought he would jump at a chance to devote more time to experimentation even if it wasn't as broad as he wished.

What could possibly be more important to us than saving lives?

I have more money than anyone deserves.

You must want more from us; at least knowledge of whom we are and what exactly we do and how we do it.

I'm as curious by nature as the next person, probably even more so, but to answer your question; no.

I asked, more to take his mind off mayhem than to elicit information.

I wish I'd had more time to do it slowly.

More wine was poured.

A comfortable bed replaced the cot utilized in Peabody and absolute darkness proved more conducive to sleep than the leaked light that often snuck into our old quarters.

The following day, Mr. Rupert Youngblood gained more notoriety, appearing on a national television morning show.

She was unable to pin him down on the cases of ours she'd documented earlier but he practically admitted he was personally responsible for all them and more.

He's gotten more looks than a braless cheerleader but nothing has stuck.

It was the first time in months Quinn would attempt to position Howie back more than a day or two.

Then I'll hit the road once more.

We'd learned to accommodate one another's quirks with no more than a raised eyebrow.

I was surprised the FBI didn't press us on some of these more prominent cases.

Betsy asked after once more, he'd left early.

It was now more than seventy-two hours after the kidnapping.

I have more on Rupert Youngblood.

The downside of setting up identities was that someone would learn more detail about us than we'd previously released.

It was the last time we heard from Daniel Brennan for more than a week.

In his absence, Julie surprised us once more by thanking us for referring Howie to a psychiatrist.

It looked more like she brought him.

Perhaps in time when she feels more secure she'll open up.

Let's hope he doesn't figure you can't go back more than a day or two.

He's learning more about us than we're learning about him!

But I'm out of the loop now, even more so now that the spooks are on my back.

I really don't know any more than the man on the street.

I was sure dear Brenda would be far more candid with the instrument pressed to her throat.

Most cases were earlier tips as lately, the authorities were far more cautious with our information; often even denying a tip was involved when an arrest occurred.

The tip covers only a few minutes, like she has to leave quickly, even though there must be more to be learned if she stayed.

But you remember some more of the number, don't you?

At least one more thing before I release you.

More of where the relationship might lead.

I volunteered no more information, nor did he want it, doubly so now that he might be suspected of having ties to us because of the frequent inquiries he made.

One more problem you don't need.

When I made a move to end the conversation, Brennan indicated there was more.

I knew this conversation deserved more thought on my part but it felt good taking some action, even if it might prove misguided.

This ought to help the credibility issue; there's more to some tips than the police know, but haven't made public because it would enforce credence in a psychic connection for the tip.

I'm sure Ethel Reagan had a thousand more questions but she didn't press me.

Martha, free to indulge, surprised me by drinking more than her share, an uncommon practice on her part.

This was more evidence of Howie's ineptness at the everyday chores the rest of us took for granted.

Molly appeared less shy around Howie than us, acting more casual toward him as if he was a member of her family.

Howie immediately began asking who needed more wine though our glasses were full.

Other than catching sight of Howie, together with Julie and Molly entering church on Sunday morning, we saw nothing more of our associate's Boston visitors.

Howie's body began a strange movement we knew to be his effort to move more rapidly.

Are there any more tidbits you can slip my way? she asked.

This killer left the scene of an aborted breaking where he was seeking more information on the tipster after he was wounded.

Soon it became apparent Howie would remain in Santa Barbara at least a week, perhaps more.

Maybe the woman is more forgiving now that so much time has passed.

While I wanted to wake Betsy and explain the situation I felt following Julie's directive might free her to be more forthcoming.

I feel more like a ship's sailor in a storm, with shredded sails with someone handing me a needle and thread.

She opens up for him; more than any other stranger.

She shook her head and began to cry once more.

I'd planned to ask Quinn and Martha to come in so I could tell them what I'd learned but the more I considered it, I decided a phone call was sufficient.

I get a lot of phone calls from people snooping for more information but I tell them I print everything I know.

If our boy made his getaway at more than five or ten miles an hour, you can bet your ass he was on one of these babies.

There was nothing more to say.

My search is for more than one as person as the tipster has helpers.

Betsy looked at her, as if wanting to hear more.
