Questions again.
1) Conversation below.
"Just answer one question, no bullshit. You didn't switch that diamond, did you?" She asked
"You wired?" He answered with a grin.
"Damnit, Pete"
"No, I didn't switch the diamond."
:?: What does "You wired?" in below conversation mean?
2) "There’s something to be said for the fact it saw a little action." What does this exactly mean?
3) Conversation below.
A: I have a couple of trucks and one of the first model air-buses. Bunged up pretty bad, but sentimental value there.
B: Might as well get the full effect.
:?: What does "Might as well get the full effect" mean?
4) Pls explain.
I can't imagine just shrugging it off if I knew he was going to kick. Pretty young for taking the slide, isn't he? Can't have hit even seventy yet. Guy's just cruising into his prime.
:?: What does "taking the slide" here mean?
:?: What doesn "cruising into his prime" mean?
5) We've got a civilian in the crosshair.
:?: What doesn "in the crosshair" mean?
6) When you say a man is poster boy look, it's mostly positive, right? I mean that man is pretty handsome, right? Have any negative meaning??
Thank you!
