you are very welcome.  I had a certain trepidation about writing about Wes and Edna's intimacy, but then I remembered there are a lot of older readers here, some of them in long term marriages, who might get a real kick out of the middle aged parental figures reacting to Ennis and Ellery's impending "delmarriage" !!

Right on, Louise.  This old codger did enjoy Brownie and Eddy's intimacy.  Goes to show you that the younguns don't have to worry so much about getting old.  There is still a lot of fun in store. 

And while I'm at it.  There are plenty of May and December pairings in the gay world.  So how about Jeremy and Jeeves finally hitting it off?

well Doc... you are going to have to wait for "Dupree's Choice" for the answer to that and other Dupree-related jeremiads and Jeevifications!"

Silence is golden

Ennis doesn’t hear too well
A legbone’s in his ears
And if he gets a hearing aid
his hearing will shift gears

One joy of using this device
is switching off and on
A golden silence will descend
if he's feeling put upon

Just like the cone of silence
in the TV show Get Smart
He can avoid discomforts
and all sorts of verbal farts

And if someone is wittering on
and making him feel bored
its like he has a switch that says
This user is ignored!

*UPDATE* ..  ;D  Er, Rich, I'll be asking for a raise sometime soon, k?  ;D


delmarriage definitions so far  ..

<< delmarriage: a marriage ceremony held between the celebrants in absence of an officiant and often witnesses. Rings are exchanged in a delmarriage and the vow made between the celebrants is deep and binding. Any sort of marriage or wedding that follows the delmarriage only serves to formalize the delmarriage; this second marriage is optional.

In the fanfic literature, examples of delmarriages are found in Chapter 116 of The Red Stallion ("Another Kind of Love"); Chapter 9 of A Love Born From Steel (the crafts fair); and Human Interest. Jack and Ennis of ALBFS had a second delmarriage 30 years after their first in Chapter 14 (Eternal Knot) of Through The Veil Of Time.

In real life, my husband and I had a delmarriage two months before our church wedding.

a calicop: A police officer who performs his duties with punctiliousness, thoroughness and over-attention to detail, always writing up reports on time, never eating doughnuts, and being prepared even to: a) write out a speeding ticket for his superior officer when the circumstances dictate, and b) rescue calico cats from a tree when so ordered. (For further details, refer to Officer Reynolds)

coyotition: An intimate sexual manouevre indulged in exclusively by horse trainers and deputy sheriffs, wherein one imitates a coyote biting and the other pretends to be a Pillsbury doughboy.

to dupreeciate: The phenomenon of a minor character in a work of fiction increasingly absorbing readers' attention until the character threatens to overtake or equal their interest in the nominal main character(s).

to jeeve :  To carefully fold one’s suit jacket and trousers and put them safely out of harm's way before getting wet and nasty in bed and sexually ravishing an eager lover with one's designer "equipment" (preferably Armani). A condom with a union-jack imprinted design is obligatory.

to jeeviate ~ to follow all rules of etiquette with impeccable taste and class (British heritage optional).   Jeeviants make great friends and excellent companions, as they are known to treat all persons with complete respect, without necessarily compromising their beliefs and standards.

a jeremiad: Originally, a long-drawn-out lamentation for a deep personal loss. In Laramie, a short moment of nostalgic regret at having lost one's delusions of being heterosexual, followed by excited anticipation of the pleasures of the new world of queerness one is about to enter into.

to june:  to squee like a professionally-trained squeer.

laramied out - state of surfeit having had five chapters of the Saga dished out in quick succession

to souxi:
  the reader in question takes leslie-ing to a whole other level with a fair amount of weeping, wailing, howling, .. practically anything to get what he/she wants.  Souxi-ers have been known to be downright relentless and they usually get what they want.

Lucise,

I think the definition from Jo is an extension of mine...not they are not two separate definitions.
