I am going to fail British Literature for SURE.


The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, by Alan Sillitoe, excerpt from p.27

---------------------------------------------------------
"We've got months to splash the lolly," I whispered as we crossed the yard, "only don't let that gate creak too much or you'll have the narks turning-in."

"You think I'm barmy?" he siad, creaking the gate so that the whole street heard.
----------------------------------------------------------

I may as well be reading Chinese. Summer Reading 1, AztecWarrior 0.

Can anyone translate this from Mysterious Moon Language to American English?

The gun katas. Through analysis of thousands of recorded gunfights, the Cleric has determined that the geometric distribution of antagonists in any gun battle is a statistically predictable element. The gun kata treats the gun as a total weapon, each fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents while keeping the defender clear of the statistically traditional trajectories of return fire. By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.
