Great puzzle, Logain. I would certainly be interested in trying another if it's not too hard to make. I missed out on some of this one, as when I checked back my fellow GLers had solved most of it . |

Yep, that was it!
Know moor..er...I mean, no more left for now. I may try to make another one, but after 52 phrases total of homonyms and not using any repeats yet, it's getting tougher to find quality phrases, at least as long as there's interest for another  |

Not place board. To help finish this one up since it's only one left...
Two synonyms for the last word besides evaluate...appraisal and criticism. |

I've been wondering about this one for a while:
lack of interest = bored/board = table ?? |

Who said anything about 8 , surely I didn't make a typo this early in the morning. |

Bump & a hint...
7-19 & 9-28 are pairings.
Two other correct halves were mentioned so far.

I'll add that "pit" has nothing to do with a hole/ditch...it refers to one of its other definitions, and the reference for "buck" is a more obscure word like quire was.
