Aguirre flouted the Forest Service rules by ordering Jack to pitch a pup tent on the QT.

Musta been, um, saddle sores.

Joe Aguirre glares at Ennis and Jack as he heads for the trailer door.



A Message for Toast from Joe's Sheep:



"2,000 posts?  Not b-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-d!"

Joe tells Jack, when he inquires about a job for next summer, that he had better hotfoot it out of there.

"I" is inscrutably

Joe Aguirre's sheep watched Jack and Ennis inscrutably.  Joe seemed to think they were scrutable.

The sheep seem to understand my situation, though.
Thanks

"J" is jackalope

There is a jackalope mounted on the wall of Aguirre's trailer.


The jackalope legend in the U.S. is attributed by the New York Times to Douglas Herrick (1920–2003) of Douglas, Wyoming, in 1932.

"M" is mattered
« Reply #10566 on: January 26, 2007, 10:53:56 pm »
Joe Aguirre made it clear that the safety of his sheep mattered more than the comfort of his herder:  who was expected to sleep with the sheep - one hunderd percent.

"O" is onerous

The duties that Aguirre required of the boys were onerous.  Jack couldn't wait until he didn't have to put up with Aguirre's crap no more.

Joe became a peeping Tom when he peered through his binoculars at Ennis and Jack.
