I just realised why Cowboys don't dance with their wives!
Ray:
I was just mopping the floor in preparation for my house guest and it occurred to me that Lureen, (the thoughts I have at the end of a cleaning utensil!), could have been saying that line, ("Ever notice how Cowboys never dance with blahblahblah...why do you think that is?") because she was on to the flirting going on at the table which didn't involve the women. Is it possible that Jack immediately wisked LaTalk onto the dance floor to avoid further speculation that could pique the curiosity of the polite company?
Thinking back further, when Lureen asks with such a sing-songy teasing voice about why Ennis never comes to Texas and Jack always has to drive seventeen hours blahblahblah.
Fast forward now, (dizzy yet?), to the post "Deceased" phone call from Ennis when Lureen was so ice cold and seemingly rehersed in her response. She only releases when she truly understands who Ennis is. Do you think Lureen knew all along and she used that knowledge as an unspoken control mechanism.
Am I late to the party and this has been discussed before?
Sheyne:
You mopped??
That is so cute.... :-*

ROFLMAO!!! heh.. good one Sheyne! *ducks from the rotten tomato being thrown at Sheyen by Ray*
Lureen was far more wordly aware than Alma Sr.. I mean she was in some alpha beta deta blah blah thing (sorry americans.. I don't get the whole sorority thing I'm afriad!) that in itself is evidence that she is more wordly wise..
I'd say she at least had an inciling.
Sheyne:
Well, I agree Kelda.... not about the tomato thing... Ray would never throw tomatoes... not when he'd just mopped - I know him too well.. he'd be more likely to take me out into the hall of his apartment building and toss a cream pie onto my face... ;D
But yeah, something in me says Lureen HAD to know but I'm kinda thinking if she DID she certainly didn't seem upset about it?!?!? She always seemed to have this teasing voice which suggested she seemed more amused than anything else. And then I wonder if she DID know cause when Ennis revealed himself to her on the phone at the end, she seemed quite distraught and upset.. Hmm....
Still think the mopping is SO gay and cute, Ray... I'll be spot-checking with my gloves on Friday night, btw.. ;)
j.U.d.E.:
