By 1983, Jack seemed to have lost his xpectance that he and Ennis could have a sweet life together.

"A" is avocation

Jack rodeos mostly, herding sheep is just his avocation.

=congratulations= All players
The ABCs is my avocation.
I'd be happy herding sheep with any of you.  Cheers, friends.

"C" is cuddly

When Aguirre gave his order for the herder: "but you sleep with the sheep, hundred percent, no fire, don't leave no sign," he couldn't know that the sheep's safety would be competing with a warm cuddly shared bedroll.

=Congrats= Players
Doesn't it give you a warm cuddly feeling?

When Ennis rode up the mountain the day after TS1, the sheep were dog-tired and the dog looked sheepish.

Joe Aguirre wanted Jack, the herder, to sleep with his sheep 100 percent at night to ensure their safety.

Sheep provided the fleece from which Annie Proulx could spin her yarn about two cowboys men in love.

"G" is goaded

Jack and Ennis goaded the sheep up the mountain, and then goaded the sheep down the mountain.  Oh, yeah, and stuff happened in between.
