Sentence: "Dang it", said the Lone Ranger. "I knew I should have never worn these fancy new boots to my faithful companion Tonto's party. They make my feet so hot that I am afraid of being a sweathreat to everyone there!" It was too late to turn Silver around and go home, so the Masked Man went up and knocked at the flap of Tonto's teepee. His anxiety evaporated when Tonto bade him enter and told him to remove his boots and be comfortable. When he hesitated, Tonto knew what was wrong right away (he had that esp thingy going) and said, "Don't worry about your feet,Kimo Sabe, because this is a Sweat Lodge anyway!" The Lone Ranger laughed and relaxed until Tonto said, "Besides it's only the two of us tonight..."

Sentence: Mr. Badd O. Door came over to my house wearing a a leather jacket, leather pants and heavy leather boots during a hot summer's day last year. I complimented them about his boots and he asked me if I wanted to try them. It was kind of a dare actually, since those boots seemed to be heavy. I quickly said, "Yes, take them off." And not missing a beat, he sped off like Flash into the horizon. I guess coldorsweat must have overcome him.
